4.0 out of 5 stars
very good,
By A Customer
This review is from: RAISE THE TITANIC (Mass Market Paperback)
this is my first Clive Cussler book, and it was superb! Page turning, chilling, and awsome and the plotline follows to the end!
4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent action story,
This review is from: RAISE THE TITANIC (Mass Market Paperback)
Let me get one thing straight: I rate this at 4 1/2 stars, not just 4. The reason I take off 1/2 of this excellent Dirk Pitt novel is because of all the political elements and complicated side stories Cussler adds. The greatest part of this book was the underwater probing, the glorious raising of the Titanic, and it's journey to New York Harbor. Be warned, Pitt doesn't even appear in the story until about the 100th page, the beginning is mainly background, and entryway into the plot. The story is good, though the character of Gene Seagram, and the politics take away from the heart of the story. Nevertheless, it is a great book, and a great read for all!
4.0 out of 5 stars
A Really Fun Read,
By "mnlaustin" (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: RAISE THE TITANIC (Mass Market Paperback)
Never mind that every word in this book about Titanic is now completely outdated, it's still so much fun! Ignore the standard lame Cussler dialogue and just enjoy the ride!
