Sinossi
Dopo 1600 anni dal rogo che distrusse nel 391 d.C. la grande biblioteca di Alessandria, Dirk Pitt scopre non solo che gran parte della biblioteca si è salvata e che la chiave per ritrovarla giace, sepolta dai ghiacci, in Groenlandia, ma che un'organizzazione internazionale trama per impadronirsene al fine di sconvolgere gli equilibri mondiali, provocare il crollo economico degli Stati Uniti, annientare Israele e ricattare il mondo intero. Un solo uomo è in grado di fermare quella folle impresa, Dirk Pitt.

This took me a month to read at night. It took a while to get into the story because it jumped around a lot and their were lots of characters. A good read
My least favorite of Clive Cussler's books so far. There is essentially two stories contained in the novel, and they are not very well connected. He starts off with one story about lost treasure, then transfers almost totally to another story about terrorists which takes up the bulk of the novel, st Leggi tutto
Another far fetched adventure story from one of the masters. Ranging from a crashing airliner over Greenland to a cruise ship off the southern tip of Argentina to a border town on the Rio Grande this treasure hunt is looking for lost artifacts from the library of Alexandria. A good fast paced adventu Leggi tutto
