Book Reviews of Arctic Drift (Dirk Pitt)

Book Review: Perspective from a car guy
Summary: 5 Stars

As with all of Clive Cussler's books, this one is full of adventure and preposterous escapes from impossible situations. I really like how he weaves cars from his personal collection into the stories. Unfortunately, they all end up damaged to the point that they need to head back to the restoration shop. The good news is that they are always fixed, as opposed to sent off to the junk yard.

The villains are always evil and always get their just dues in the end. This one is no different. I did, however, find this one particularly more evil than those in previous books. I found myself really hating this guy and hoping that he would get sent off to his Maker before he did much more mayhem.

Now that Dirk Pitt is married, his success in his amorous adventures have been curtailed. Cussler never got too juicy with the details of Dirk's activites, but they sure got a guy to feel an amount of envy for his successes.

I find his books to be both exciting, yet unbelievable. National and world security are hanging on the balance of this attempts to thrwart the devices of the villain. No different here. Dirk has the direct line to the White House, which is interesting and a bit far fetched.

Great book. I liken the Dirk Pitt novels to an American James Bond. You'll like this one.
