Another fantastic adventure from Cussler! Loved every minute of it! Dirk Pitt has become a modern day Indiana Jones. The action and drama is wonderful! Although the story has now been made into a motion picture, the book is much better. Especially since the ending has a surprise twist not seen in the movie. Lots of fun!
