Product Description:

Amazon.com Review:
In this explosive Dirk Pitt novel by the author of Inca Gold, Pitt meets the most intriguing and sinister villain of his adventurous and legendary career--a billionaire Australian diamond king with whom he must wage conflict above and below the sea for the survival of vast numbers of sea creatures and more than a million human beings. Only Clive Cussler--the Grandmaster of Adventure--could have written a story this suspenseful.

Rated by buyers -
One of the best Clive Cussler novels I've read, and I've read quite a few. Gripping adventure as always. Cussler never fails to deliver. Shock Wave will have you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Cussler uses a topical situation on which to base his story around, and as always some interesting characters are introduced as the story progresses. Being an Aussie, I liked the fact that an Australian character was included, albeit the villain. A top read and a must for all Cussler fans, and those not yet fortunate enough to have read a Clive Cussler novel.

If you do not believe in the religion of global warming and corporate consiracy theories your eyes will pop out of your head every two pages. The best part of this book is the lead-up to the main story line. The main story line is more suited to a scooby-doo episode than an adult action novel.
Rated by buyers -
By far Clive Cussler's best book yet. Almost an unputdownable book. Only weaknesses albiet small was the beginning and the end. But the middle towards the end, how my gosh! I couldn't put it down! A different spin in every chapter!
Rated by buyers -
Even though I've read a lot of Pitt novels they are still very enjoyable to read. Standard ocean catastrophe and Dirk and Al have to figure out the mystery. Good mix of adventure and science. Very well written.
