There isn't a Dirk Pitt adventure that I haven't loved! Clive Cussler writes fantastic novels that stretch the believability factor but never the imagination. His adventures are all something that really could happen using smarts and technology. Dirk always gets the bad guy (or gal). The books always introduce a few different plots happening at the same time which seemingly have absolutely nothing to do with each other but somehow are all tied together. The process of tying them together is fascinating and really keeps you turning pages. This one has Vikings, pirates, luxury liners, luxury submarines, oil tankers, oil conglomerates and one really really bad character with more money than brains. This is one of the few series that really don't have to be read in sequence. Simply spectacular!
