5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Escapism, 30 Aug 2006

By	D. Newstead "dazzling33" (Middlesex UK) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

Wow one of the first books I have rushed into work to write an online review about even before I have finished it. This book is like a cross between Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt,Jack Bauer from 24 and a good helping of Matthew Reilly's Scarecrow plus a bit of Jaws. Great underwater imagination, fantastic characters, great story about the possible end of the world and brilliant excitement, cant wait to get back to it. I read a number of reviews before and bought all his books I can find so looking forward to reading all his others. Can recommend it enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fast paced? The pages seemed to turn themselves., 6 Nov 2001

By	"tgaston2004" - See all my reviews

A series of natural disasters bring the remnants of a lost civilisation into the light of day and reveal a mystery that must be solved quickly if the world and all of mankind is to be saved.

Many stories require the reader to take a step back from reality but this novel requires a tremendous leap. That said, the fast paced, action packed adventure makes for an enjoyable read. Despite a slight tendency to lecture in places rather than tell the story, the author carries his improbable plot so well that the pages seem to turn themselves.

The characters have personality and enough depth that you genuinely care what happens to them.

I shall definitely buy the next book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Suspend all belief and enjoy!, 2 Mar 2006

By	Winning Form Mr Lips (Durban North, Kwazulu-Natal South Africa) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Escapist nonsense doesn't come much brasher and bolder than this. Suspend all belief and enjoy the rollercoaster ride that is delivered by this tale of natural disasters shaking up the world. This potboiler has the lot: a traumatised hero, his arch enemy, a love interest, nuclear war, lost continents, magical crystals, you name it.

I would deduct one star for the ending, which smacks a touch of the author having painted himself into a corner and using a cheap trick to get out of it. But, who's complaining? It's all tripe, anyway. Hugely readable and enjoyable nonsense, but nonsense nevertheless.

It would make a mighty fine blockbuster movie, for sure.
