Summary: I Love Clive Cussler's Books, but this is NOT Clive Cussler!
Comment: Cussler is one of the few authors who have NEVER disappointed me and I buy his books day of release without fail. I even liked his collaborations with Dirgo as it always seemed to me to be a Cussler book, UNTIL NOW. I totally agree with the reviewer who wrote that the book just died. Reading about the Dali Lama got me hooked as i thought there would be a few plots going on at once and the Dali Lama part could be quite intriguing. Did Cussler even see the book before Dirgo went to publisher?

I kept waiting for something other than the one event to happen. All these uninteresting characters that were not developed and no place for them to go. Who cares about this caper? I am on page 300 now and i couldn't believe that it took 300 pages to get to this point in the story so i came to Amazon to see it if was just me. It's not. I am only finishing this book because the name Cussler is attached. If this had been an unknown author, I would have stopped a long time ago as it is a terrible story, terribly concocted with only the first chapter or two having any interest. This is SO NOT CUSSLER. The writing is repetitive and boring as if he is trying to be Cussler but failing miserably. Ok, done. Wish the book was.

Rating: 3
Summary: Do some research before reviewing people...
Comment: For those of you ripping Cussler for this book, be aware that HE DID NOT WRITE IT. Cussler is the 'Creative Director' for these books, which means he provides the basic story and outline, and then Graig Dirgo actually writes the book.

I think this is actually the best of the books Dirgo has co-authored.

And for all you whiners out there, Trojan Odyssey will be Cussler's last Dirk Pitt novel, so these books be all that's left after that.

Rating: 3
Summary: Hmmmm
Comment: See book summary above.

It seems to me that Clive Cussler is lending his name to some up and coming authors. Maybe he should have read this again before putting his name on it. This would have made a heck of a good story if it had a little more depth and characterization but it was presented with too many characters who were given too little time. His next solo effort will surely blow this one out of the water.
