Customer Reviews

Get ready, get set, go!
The Sea Hunters as I understand it from reading about Cussler [...] is that this was his doctoral dissertation. If mine could only be this fun to write.

Chalk full of interesting stories about some of the ships he has actually tried to find, found and mapped while bringing to life the tragic ill-fated night/day they were lost makes for an excellent read. I thought that by the end I couldn't have been more surprised but I was wrong. And I was rewarded it was an ending only Cussler can give, one that had me laughing so hard, my flatmates thought I had gone off the deep end.

This along with Dirk Pitt/Clive Cussler Revealed gives a great insight into today's number one action-adventure writer. A definite must for your Cussler library.

Unbelievable
I love these books, all of clive cusslers books are fantastic but the Sea Hunters has that little bit extra because you know that these stories are real! Basically the book is a collection of stories put together by Clive Cussler and tell of how the ship met its demise, it also goes on to tell of how Clive Cussler and NUMA actually track them down and pin point the location of the wrecks! After i bought it, i ended up staying awake all night and deep into the next morning to ensure i finished the book as i couldnt put it down, even though i kept telling myself that the next story would be the last i read! A must have for any reader! 5 Stars!

If you like Cussler, you`ll love this.
Cussler approaches some of the factual accounts of wrecks like his books. Based on actual accounts and facts, Cussler uses his litary style and, not a little poetic licence to enhance the readability of this highly entertaining book.
