Secure Sahara (Le Avventure Di Dirk Pitt, #11) Engineered By Clive Cussler Displayed In Mobi

que este tipo de libros de aventuras no son mi género favorito, pero no está de más leer alguno ocasionalmente.
Sirven para distraerse y evadirse por momentos de la realidad, y Sahara, en este sentido, cumplió su cometido.


Comienza con un capítulo diferente de lo que luego será la aventura principal, pero con el que acaba por conectar la historia.
Si mal no recuerdo, la otra novela de Cussler que después leí Muerte blanca utilizaba ese mismo recurso.
Por lo que parece, el autor estructura sus novelas siguiendo ese patrón, aunque luego es muy imaginativo a la hora de crear aventuras siguiendo un cierto molde determinado.


En el caso de esta obra, se trata de una aventura africana, un elemento que me decidió a iniciar la lectura.
África es para mí un continente inmenso por su variedad de culturas, lenguas, historia y paisajes,

En definitiva, ésta es una buena opción para pasar un buen rato, Sin embargo, el grueso de la acción transcurre en Mali y, yo diría, la reciente y desgraciada historia de ese país, masacrado por la guerra civil y la extensión devastadora de ese autodenominado “islam” ojo a las comillas intolerante, dejan la acción obsoleta.
Sahara transcurre en un Mali que no existió y que tampoco existirá, Quien quiera asomarse a una trama más actual sobre ese simpático y arrasado país africano, estará más encaminado al leer El último tuareg de Alberto VázquezFigueroa.
I saw the movie amp then read the book, It wasn't bad, but was definitely a candy read, A lot of unlikely events come together to make this a nonstop thriller, Suspension of disbelief is a must from the get go, but there is enough logic overall to make it enjoyable.
Pitt reminds me of a modern James Bond from the movies not the books in that he's the man's man, equally at home underwater or climbing a mountain, with top skills in just about everything, handsome, witty, amp.
Well, you get the picture,

Cussler is definitely a writer to read rather than listen to as I realized with sitelinkAtlantis Found although that entire plot was a train wreck.
He's not a great writer, rather too wordy for me amp those words often get him into trouble,

One of these days I might get around

to reading one of the earlier books in the series, but I certainly won't read any later ones.
I can't say with any certainty, but it seems to me that Cussler is cranking them out amp getting wilder ideas as the series goes on.
This is the first Clive Cussler book I have ever read, Reading some of the reviews, I see some people didn't like this book, but I actually enjoyed this book a lot.
I had been going through the bargain bin of books at the local store and found this book as a markeddown paperback.
I read the back of the book and it sounded interesting, so I picked it up, And I enjoyed it more than I thought I would,

Yes, a certain suspension of disbelief is required to enjoy this book, especially the part with Abraham Lincoln.
But overall the story is wellpaced, the characters fun, and the action interesting, There's just so much great stuff going on, I really did love this book, It might not be for everyone, but if you're looking for an action and adventure book with colorful characters, fun scenes, and some pretty cool historical trivia, you should enjoy this book.
I give it a solid,/stars

This is a macho action book that's over the top with some exciting stuff, The problem for me is that it was way too long and there isn't much character development, The two prologues yes, there are two had little to do with the rest of the story, Generally, it's just not my type of book, but they're are some exciting, though somewhat ridiculous, action scenes that bumped up my rating.
Początek dzieje się wroku, Pewien okręt, należący do Konfederacji oraz mający na pokładzie pełno złota, przebija się przez blokady Unii i mimo ostrzału odpływa w dal.
  Kilkadziesiąt lat później, na Saharze, rozbija się słynna pilotka, Nie odnaleziono jej ciała, Potem akcja przenosi się doroku, Główny bohater Dirk Pit ratuje Evę Rojas, która jest naukowcem i próbuje, wraz z zespołem badawczym, wyjaśnić dziwną chorobę, szerzącą się wśród ludów południowej Sahary.
Dodatkowo sam Dirk zostaje wysłany na misję, w związku z katastrofą ekologiczną, która sprawi, że w najbliższym czasie zacznie brakować na Ziemi tlenu.


To nie moja pierwsza książka Cusslera, więc mniej więcej wiedziałam czego się spodziewać.
Z tymi książkami mam ogólnie jeden problem ciężko jest mi w fabułę wejść i przez to nie lubię po tego autora sięgać.
Jednak, kiedy już wejdzie się w tryby, to wszystko idzie sprawnie oraz jest ciekawa, Jednak, o ile akcja innych książek, które do tej pory przeczytałam, miały jeszcze jakiś element zaskoczenia, pojawiał się jakiś istotny plot twist to tutaj było wszystko zbyt oczywiste lub do przewidzenia.
Od początku przeczuwałam co jest powodem tej katastrofy ekologicznej oraz co się stanie z tym tak zwanym złym bohaterem.
To, że Dirk zawsze spada na cztery łapy akurat charakteryzuje te książki, więc tutaj również nie było zaskoczenia.


Było okej, ale w mojej ocenie gorzej niż zazwyczaj, โคตรสนก เปน Action/Adventure ทลนไปกบการเเกปญหาเฉพาะหนาของสถานการณวายปวงท Pitt ตองเจอ สเกลเรองใหญมาก ครอบคลมสวนใหญของเเอฟรกา

ถาใครชอบเเนว อนเดยนาโจนสผสมกบอธาน ฮนส เเนะนำเลยครบ My first Dirk Pitt Adventure novel, Unfortunately, I wasn't all that impressed,

Cussler lost me pretty early when one of the secondary characters, some scientisttype on a boat, pulled out a pair of Ms one in each hand and fired at another boat some distance away, managing to hit his targets.
Seriously!! After that scene I pretty much had a negative attitude towards everything else that was to come,

There were a couple of cartoon villains who liked to chat with our heroes revealing their evil plans.
And they were able to press secret buttons on desks which would open concealed doors where guards were always waiting.


The heroes, Pitt and Giordino, seemed rather unstable, They'd be fighting tears as some odd kid loses a ball over a fence and cries, then one of them would shoot a woman in the knee caps and stomach and watch her bleed to death.
I'm overly exaggerating, no kid lost a ball, but their personalities/emotions/whatever did seem to jump all over the place throughout the book.


A lot of the conversation read like entries in an encyclopedia, Like Cussler was just showing off his knowledge and not caring if it was hindering the flow of the story.
Other times he would explain things as if talking to a very slow child with a learning disability and English as a second language.
Thanks, Clive!

“In every country but ours it's known as football, ” Uh, no. Not in my country. Thanks, Clive!

I could go on, but I've never actually written a negative review about anything before and I'm feeling kind of guilty.
So I will say that I never was bored at any point, Incredulous, sure. Insulted, sure. Angry, oh yeah. Bored, nope. The Lincoln conspiracy was an interesting idea too,

I'd read another or three of Cussler's books without any hesitation,

I watched the movie with MatthewIhatewearingshirtsMcConaughey and Steve Zahn right after I finished the book and was actually entertained.
AND THERE WAS NO MSCENE!!! It was even too much for the movie, Though a flare gun was not, . .

One of Cussler's best, I am a great fan of action adventure and Cussler is like one of the superof this genre.
I meant to read his book for a long time and Finally i finished Sahara, And believe me it was worth the wait, I am glad that I've started Cussler with this one, :D

Full on action right from the start, Evil industrialists, corrupt governments, an ecological disaster in the making that could
see the end of all life on earth.
And of course there is a hot chick in distress

The story has been broken intopieces which have been methodically put together.

, A ironclad Confederate ship, the Texas is lost at sea amidst a raging battle, all the while playing host to an impossible man.

, Kitty Mannock crash lands into a Sahara Desert in the middle of trying to break a world record, only to be foundyears later.

Present Day, The world is facing extinction in the form of oxygen depletion due to some
unknown source in Western Africa.


I enjoyed the depth to this book, The historical fiction aspect that Cussler brings in is an interesting element, He takes a great
story line, in and of itself, and throws in some historical based plots that enrich the reading experience.
This was a unique read for me and I am now moving on to other Cussler novels,

Brilliant twists and turns, A must read for fans of the fast paced action genre, .
