- Nobody cared what hapened to the iceberg...
Remember when Clive Cussler used to write quite good books? This was the first Dirk Pitt book I read and I loved it. Of course that was before they actually found the Titanic and discovered it was a knackered in wreck, but reality shouldn't be allowed to enter Mr Cusslers world.

Sadly, since these days, Mr Cussler has disappeared so far up his fundament it is getting silly, and I am sure that now he writes "for a laugh" too see how many ridiculous things he can squeeze into his stories, capped by the idiotic appearances of himself. I think he believes that he himself is actually Dirk Pitt. Now, his stories involve plot devices like the following. Pitt has his arms and legs broken, his head placed in a bucket of cement, he is sealed into a 10 billion tonne pyramid of granite, which ... Read More

- Underwater Adventure Hero
Dirk Pitt has it all, looks brains, cars and the women and this is one of my favorite books, probably more so because it is one of the first books I read of his more than anything else. I am not sure it is his "best" book but it is worthwhile anyway if you like his other books.

This one centers on the Titanic itself and some secrets materials it holds.. Cussler is a researcher in real life and his passion for the sea comes through once again with enough points to add cedibility to something, which of course, is by its nature incedible (good guys/bad guys/evil plots), but that is what his books are about.

There are some weak points along the way (sometimes the romance writing is not quite up to par) but the action and adventure aspects makes it a fun read, like the rest ... Read More

- Raising the Titanic
This book is good and holds your interest from beginning to end. Several surprises which always makes for interesting reading. Cussler captures your total interest and holds it until the book ends. Hurray!!

- Slow to start, but overall a good read
This book was very slow to start. Has a lot of characters so the character development of the plot takes more time than I would have liked. Half way through, the book becomes one you cannot put down. It does a 180 and becomes fast paced action. My opinion of the book drastically changed near the end. Read it, you'll like it!

- Excellent Book!
Nobody writes em like Clive Cussler...sort of like James Bond meets Jacque Cousteau. Excellent book for history and science lovers...and there is always a twist...can you spot Clive Cussler's character in the book? I love that part...he always inserts himself into his work. I know of no other author who does that. Hope you enjoy the read! This is my 2nd time around :o)
