Arctic Drift (A Dirk Pitt Novel, #20) (Dirk Pitt) Clive Cussler, Dirk Cussler
Putnam Adult, 2008
As with all Clive Cussler’s dazzling Dirk Pitt novels, critics said Treasure of Khan “amazes, informs and entertains” ( Publishers Weekly ), “the action zipping along until a final powerhouse showdown” ( Entertainment Weekly ). “What’s not to like?” proclaimed the Los Angeles Times —and hundreds of thousands of readers agreed. In his new novel, however—the twentieth Dirk Pitt adventure— ...

The Mediterranean Caper (Dirk Pitt Adventure) 43 reviews Clive Cussler
Berkley, 2004
Excellent Book!
+ I enjoyed it! + Great Sea Adventure
Nobody writes em like Clive Cussler...sort of like James Bond meets Jacque Cousteau. Excellent book for history and science lovers...and there is always a twist...can you spot Clive Cussler's character in the book? I love that part...he always inserts himself into his work. I know of no other ...

The Chase 109 reviews Clive Cussler
Putnam Adult, 2007
Where's Dirk
+ A Great Action Adventure in 19th Century West + Good read but factually erroneous
Great story. The whole time I was reading it I kept waiting for Dirk to arrive. Even though he didn't appear, this was a fun filled, can't pull the book down, adventure.

Shock Wave (Dirk Pitt Adventure) 108 reviews Clive Cussler
Pocket Star, 2008
Top Shelf
+ Diamonds are not a man's best friend + Another Pitt Adventure
One of the best Clive Cussler novels I've read, and I've read quite a few. Gripping adventure as always. Cussler never fails to deliver. Shock Wave will have you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Cussler uses a topical situation on which to base his story around, and as always some ...

Devil May Care 74 reviews Sebastian Faulks
Doubleday, 2008
Bond...Stirred Not Shaken
Devil May Care was a good read all things considered. It could never be confused with a "real" Ian Fleming book, but I enjoyed it. I say "stirred not shaken" because Faulks tries to stick to Fleming's style, but falls short (there's an absurd tennis match for example). I am glad I found the book at ...

Map of Bones 189 reviews James Rollins
Avon, 2006
Read This First, in Sigma Series
+ adventure galore + An explosive adventure
Map of Bones is a fast paced thrill ride. I loved it. The book is a little too long, but all in all, I couldn't get enough. This is the second book in the Sigma series. The first book, Sandstorm, is not as good, and most of the central characters are introduced in Map of Bones and not in the ...

Along Came a Spider
+ Patterson At His Best + Good Read
This suspense thriller was read by 2 great readers. It was listened to while in my car and it was hard to turn it off when arriving at my destination. This was my first book on tape by James Patterson and I hope that others by this author will be read as superbly.

Harper, 2005
A lot of excitement
+ Solid Rollins Work
I only recently got turned on to James Rollins, and I wonder what took so long! Sandstorm is the second of his books that I've read, and it's quite a ride. The characters are real and compelling. The events, while completely out there as far as reality goes, SEEM real and plausible. I do like ...

Killing Floor (Jack Reacher, No. 1) 180 reviews Lee Child
Jove, 2006
Jack Reacher Is A Believable Super Hero
+ SEXY! + An over-the-top mystery
This is my second Jack Reacher read. I think the author does a great job creating page turning excitement. Even though many of Reacher's exploits may seem over the top. They are achieved in a plausible way. Reacher's brother was a top level treasury department boss who was the top expert in money ...

+ Great Author - My Favorite + Pleasantly Surprised
Like many here, I have been a huge fan of James Rollins since "Subterranean". While the novels he's written between this first entry into the action/adventure genre and his most recent release have improved steadily through the years, the spark, the drive and the imagination were always there.
