True Adventures with Famous Shipwrecks It’s been a long while since I read a book by Clive Cussler—nearly 18 months, in fact, since I gave up on the last novel I tried, Odessa Sea. I did read The Adventures of … Continue reading

This book has been a long time in coming. Back when I first began my Clive Cussler phase, I had just left the Army, my wife was pregnant, and both of us were in grad school. When the baby came … Continue reading
