Lieutenant Commander Lee Koski clamped his teeth a notch tighter on the stem of a corncob pipe, jammed his knotted fists two inches deeper in his fur-lined wind-breaker and shivered in the intense cold. Read the first page

I enjoyed this book, the plot was good, characters were alright, but I jus think it could have been much better... First, where was Dirk's friend Giordino from the first book? Theres no mention of him at all in this one... But the plot was good, the last little turn at the end I thought was a little predictable, but overall a great read, cant wait to read Raise The Titanic !!!

First off, change that one star I had to give to the no stars this atrocious crapfest deserves. This is truly one of the four or five worst novels I've ever tortured myself with. I still can't believe I got there, but the moment I finished the last page I literally threw the book against the wall, I felt so dissatisfied and cheated as a reader. The only thing worse than, "Oooh, I know where to find the Central American presidents in Disneyland, they must be riding the Pirates of the Caribbean," is the stupid sex change. I'd love to take two copies of this book, put them in lunch bags, set one on Mr. Cussler's doorstep and the other on his editor's, set them afire and run and hide and watch giggling as they spatter themselves in brown stomping them out. The only way to force publishers to raise their standards is to stop buying this garbage. I want my money back, along with the wasted hours of my life.

2.0 out of 5 stars Slightly Wooden Pitt
One of Clive Cussler's earlier adventure novels featuring the intrepid marine enginner Dirk Pitt, Iceberg is perhaps one of the least interesting. Why? Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Uninspiring, predictable, drone drone drone...
There's not much to say about this novel, other than that the author displayed a complete lack of inspiration, the main twist of the book revolving around a sex change. Read more
