Descriptions du produit

From Publishers Weekly

With this 14-week PW bestseller in cloth, Cussler delivers great fun, as his durable hero Dirk Pitt returns to save mankind from a greedy industrialist, solving some historical riddles along the way.
Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc.


From AudioFile

Dirk Pitt, intrepid adventurer and master explorer, searches the Sahara for the deadly toxin that is killing marine life world wide. This audio, abridged by Harold Schmidt, lacks most of the adventure, as well as the humor, of Cussler's novels. Narrator Tom Wopat brings an unconventional vocal slant to the ever-cocky Pitt. Using lots of vocal characterization, Wopat brings across the smug brashness of Pitt and handles dialogue briskly. Enhanced by sound effects and small pieces of music, this is an interesting and perplexing mystery. B.P. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine --Ce texte provient de la Audio Cassette édition.

4.0étoiles sur 5 A pretty entertaining read - one flaw I can't let slide, Avril 9 2004
Par eukonidor (Louisville, KY) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Sahara (Mass Market Paperback)
OK, I have read EVERY Dirk Pitt novel Clive Cussler has written, so I definitely qualify to review his books. I enjoy how Cussler pushes the technological envelope in each new story, even a little over the top; I also enjoy how Dirk Pitt is the ruthless hero (only to baddies, not to beautiful women) we've all wished our movie action heroes could be. If you've read more than one Dirk Pitt novel, you know what I'm talking about. No need to elaborate so as not to ruin it for others less fortunate.

By the way, I appreciate how he writes himself into nearly every novel. Don't criticize - you'd do it too if you knew how to make a living writing.

I enjoyed Sahara immensely. Cussler has a way of getting you to say, "Hmmm...could that be what really happened?"

I usually leave a LOT of room for authors to play with the rules of technology and even the laws of physics now and then.

However, despite Cussler's quality, I can't ignore this one:

If you are dehydrated to the point of death - no, wait, even if you are dehydrated significantly less than to the point of death - you don't simply drink quarts and quarts of water and in a matter of minutes fully recover, shake the dust off, and sally forth on your merry way. Even somewhat dehydrated, you will be on a table with an IV in your arm for several hours. I know this firsthand. Technology is one thing; medical accuracy is another.
Nonetheless...
A very good book, typical Cussler.

5.0étoiles sur 5 "Sahara" Is One of the Best Adventure Novels among Clive Cussler's Books of This Forumula of Pop Fiction, Sep 23 2009
Par C.-P. Gerald Parker (Abitibi region of Québec) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Sahara (Mass Market Paperback)
I have been reading Clive Cussler novels for many years and I can call myself a true fan of Cussler's pop fiction. Of course, Cussler does not aspire to the status of "belles lettres" (high-class literature worthy of study for its aesthetic value), but this author excels in his chosen genre of adventure ("action") novel and of books with plots that relate (at least in part) to sea-faring exploits or maritime curiosities. "Sahara" is among the best of Cussler's novels, among my very favourite of his exciting epics; only "The Mediterranean Caper", "Iceberg", and "Raise the Titantic" are as thrilling as "Sahara" is". There are few films based on Cussler novels, the only two of which I know being cinematic treatments of "Sahara", a great box-office success, and "Raise the Titanic" (a novel, hence the film too, whose plausibility suffers in retrospect only due to the discovery of the Titanic wreck well after Cussler had written his novel and after the film industry made a cinematic treatment of it). I read "Sahara" many years before the film came out. Both the novel and the film are "super"!

Cussler researches his subjects exceedingly well. The Tuaregs in "Sahara" are true to the life, religious beliefs and practices, and lore of this peculiar Muslim sect in Mali (e.g., whose men, rather than their women, wear an all-encompassing veil). Cussler's experience at sea, especially in exploring wrecks and naval mysteries, shows in all of his novels. Having been in the U.S. Navy myself (even having consorted for a few months with the "Navy Seals") during the Kennedy presidency in the early 1960s, I can appreciate the authenticity of Cussler's Naval and Maritime lore as he depicts it. In "Sahara" it takes the form of sub-plots that entail some expert manoeuvering under dangerous conditions of a small river craft vessel as well as the discovery of a marooned Confederacy warship.

The reader cannot go wrong with most of Cussler's novels especially those which were published before the present (21st) century began. "Sahara" makes a good point of departure in exploring the "Dirk Pitt" pop classics of Cussler's famously enjoyable 20th century output. If you liked the film treatment, you probably will enjoy the novel even more, if you are an avid reader of action fiction!
