Summary: Formula For Success
Review: I am a big Dirk Pitt fan, having read all of the books (mostmore than once). Atlantis Found, though, is a stinker. The plot istrite (Hitler's children; sappy romance with the Congresswoman) andfilled with flaws. Did Clive Cussler really write this one (on automatic pilot), or did one of his proteges just follow the formula?

Summary: Classic Cussler
Review: One of Mr. Cussler's best efforts. Dirk continues to be a cross between "Indiana Jones" and James Bond". Once you begin to read this book, you won't want to stop until you finish it. Having read all his books, it is nice to have the "old familiar Dirk and Al" back again. I am not looking forward to waiting another year or more for the next Dirk Pitt. Keep them coming! Why hasn't Spielberg and Lucas made some his books into movies. This book surely could be a Oscar winner?

Summary: Dirk Pitt saves the day!
Review: Every time I read a Dirk Pitt adventure novel, I wonder to myself, "How in the world is Clive Cussler going to top that in his next book? Read on. ATLANTIS FOUND is one of the best adventure novels I've ever read! Dirk and Al fans will be pleased!

Summary: It was really good
Review: Well I've read every Clive Cussler book there is....and this one is pretty good. I was expecting something A LOT DIFFERENT but it was still very interesting. I thought the intro wasn't quite as good as some Pitt novels....and the overall story wasn't as gripping as some....but it was still good. Too bad Dirk is getting old......

Summary: One of the best
Review: I like all Clive Cussler books but this was one of the better books. It had a great plot and great summary. But, the best part of the book was the end when Giordino gets... I won't tell you. My opinion is Clive is retiring as a solo writer. You should read read it.

Summary: Clive Alive
Review: I became a fan of Clive Cussler and his hero Dirk Pitt after reading Raise the Titanic as a sophomore in high school. Through all the great adventures and near death experiences of the fictional Pitt, I have always had one question when I finished each new novel --- what will he do next. In Atlantis Found, Pitt and company tackle one of the great mysteries --- the lost continent of Atlantis. Along the way, Pitt travels to the Antartic while battling the next generation of Nazis determined to rule the world. As in past novels, Pitt uses his mind, a horde of gadgets and friends in his fight to save humanity. Where Cussler shines here is that he doesn't bring Pitt so close to Death's door that the suspension of disbelieve is shattered. Pitt is not getting old, he's just getting better --- like his collection of antiques.

Summary: Good Bit of Fluff
Review: Okay, I can suspend my disbelief at will, and I can buy in to all the fanciful aspects of this book. It's got a bit of everything: Comet strikes, armageddon, nazis, ancient civilizations, cool doodads, etc. etc.What I can't stand is bad writing. The book would go from Holding my interest and being a genuine page-turner to making me gag at the appalling grammar and writing style that I had to put it down for a few days. I won't be reading any more Cussler books, but I enjoyed this fluff anyway. Too many groans, too many cliches, and Why oh why did Clive Cussler make himself a character in his own book? Geez!

Summary: NOTHING BEATS A DIRK PITT ADVENTURE
Review: I LOVED this book. Of course, I love all Dirk Pitt adventures. But, I was REALLY into this one. Hope there will be another D.P. adventure from Cussler soon....

Summary: Cussler Trips over himself
Review: Cussler is back and the action sequences are well written, but the plot suffers a little bit from the many different aspects of the plot. Well written but the story could have been simpler.

Summary: Breathtaking!
Review: This is my first time I read something to Clive Cussler. And I was amazed how he grabed my attention and kept my nose in his book, which I liked very much. The novel is very nice, full of adventure and mistry and once you finish a chapter, the writer makes sure that you will flip to the next one eagirly. I like this kind of books. Which reminds me of Michael Chrichton. I am looking forward to read his previous work, so enjoy the book!
