Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent plot!
Comment: This must be one of the best Cussler books. A real page turner, with all the bells and whistles that Cussler has got us used to.
Reccomended!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Does he get paid by the word?
Comment: I would have liked this book except that his style got in the way. Cussler always writes a good story, but with a co-writer, this book is bogged down with long, unnecessary explanations and descriptions that add nothing to the story. It was much too wordy, but the plot was good. I just didn't have the patience to finish it. I gave up on page 145.

Summary: A fun summer read
Comment: This is a good book but it is not the best in the Oregon series and far from Cussler's best.
Customer Rating:
Summary: What a waste
Comment: Hard to put this delicately. Clive Cussler sux. Talentless formulaic garbage with his own political bias.
I hesitate to call him the "Bill O'Reilly" of fiction because
a) he probably sees that as a complement
b) its hard to discern who is the fictional writer with that comparison.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Read
Comment: Cussler writes an excellant story of international intrigue. The "bad" people he writes about have very real counterparts in the real world. He brings science into the plot in such a way as to make you believe it could really happen just as he describes it. The plot of mass murder thru disease that he writes about in Plague Ship is one that worries Americans today. Plague Ship is well worth the read.
