Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Clive Cussler, the author of sixteen consecutive New York Times bestsellers, unleashes a hero for the subsequent millennium in an electrifying new series of unrelenting action and edge-of-your-seat thrills.
When Kurt Austin, the leader of a courageous National Underwater & Marine Agency exploration team, rescues beautiful marine archaeologist Nina Kirov off the coast of Morocco, he becomes the subsequent target of Texas industrialist Don Halcon. A madman bent on carving a new nation out of the southwestern United States and Mexico, Halcon's scheme hinges on Nina's recent discovery involving Christopher Columbus, and a priceless pre-Columbian antiquity buried in the battered remains of the sunken Italian luxury liner Andrea Doria. Only Kurt Austin and his crack NUMA team stand between Halcon and the Andrea Doria's silent steel hull -- and if their deadly mission fails, Halcon will ride to power on a wave of death and destruction.

My very first (and last) Cussler book. Appallingly awful. Purple prose, outlandish plot.

The story was very good but I was dissapointed that I was sent a library book & the cover wasn't in very good shape. The story itself was very exciting as is all of Clive Cussler's books.

I enjoyed the story and found it hard to put down. There is always an element of surprise to his stories. I especially enjoy the underwater element of exploration and discovery. Since being underwater is not in my element I find it interesting what others can and do find with the proper training. I hope they make this into a movie someday. I have read other Clive Cussler novels and find them all very informative and entertaining. Joan Sutton jvsutton@volcano.net

Well, actually Austin did not disappoint me, it is more on Mr. Cussler's side. Do not get me wrong, I am an avid Cussler fan. This is my third Austin novel and Nth for Pitt. It is a disaster finding, for reading this novel is not finding what you are actually finding for. Later Austin novels were much more refined.
A 2.5-3 star only for it is one of worst Cussler novels.

Although not a Dirk Pitt novel, this Kurt Austin book was action packed and had the general feel of most Clive Cussler books. I am a devoted Pitt fan, yet I would recommend this book to those who enjoy Cussler's writing. The archaeological expedition was intriguing.
