7成新,边角有点磨Trojan Odyssey[Paperback]Clive CusslerPublisher:Michael Joseph Ltd (November 6, 2003) Product Dimensions:9 x 6 x 1.6 inches Shipping Weight:1.6 poundsFrom BooklistThe latest Dirk Pitt thriller, like its 16 predecessors, is ready made for the big screen. (Let\'s hope it makes a better movie than 1980\'sRaise the Titanic,also based on a Pitt adventure, which gives you some idea of how long the series has been around.) A hurricane threatens an undersea resort hotel; meanwhile, Dirk Pitt\'s twin offspring are trapped at the bottom of the ocean in Pisces, an underwater laboratory. Oh, and Dirk himself swoops in to rescue the hotel, and its guests--but what about his children? Cussler has written a lot of seabound thrillers, and he clearly knows how to put one together to get maximum excitement from minimal material. Everything is done in shorthand, from the disaster-movie-plot setup to the characters and dialogue. There\'s the evil-named Specter, the man behind the hotel, \"with a heart of cold stone.\" There are the twins, whose dialogue sounds like it was lifted from a Hardy Boys novel (\"I want to take a closer look inside the cavern where I found the urn.\" \"Can you find it in the dark?\" \"Like a fox to its lair\"). In a nutshell, this novel offers precisely what readers have come to expect from a Dirk Pitt adventure: danger, heroics, villains, heroes.David PittCopyright ? American Library Association.
