I've seen Clive's books out for many years but never picked one up before. I've just read "Lost City" and "Black Wind" (he co-authored both.) Pretty good reading, I just went out and picked up a couple more - "Sahara" and "Inca Gold" - both Dirk Pitt adventures. I see where Sahara has been made into a movie, will have to rent it after I finish the book.

Looks like I found a new "favorite" author.

The books are a great way to spend a long flight -- but regrettably the movies are terrible -- neither Cussler nor Crichton seem to have any luck turning their books into decent movies.
