Summary

A Japanese cargo ship cruises the eastern Atlantic near the Azores- when it bursts into flames. A gang of pirates speeds to take advantage of the disaster-when their boat explodes. What is happening in this part of the world?

As Kurt Austin, Joe Zavala, and the rest of the NUMA Special Assignments Team rush to investigate, they find themselves drawn into the extraordinary ambitions of an African dictator, the creation of a weapon of almost mythical power, and an unimaginably audacious plan to extort the world's major nations. The penalty for refusal? The destruction of their greatest cities. Filled with the high-stakes suspense and boundless invention unique to Cussler, Devil's Gate is one of the most thrilling novels yet from the grand master of adventure.

  4. Goodreads Review, Review by Don

    Reviewing Cussler's books is kind of pointless. How many different ways can you say a book was a good action thriller? The characters and details may change but at the end of the day they're all about heroes saving the world and usually getting the girl.<br/><br/><u>Devil's Gate</u> was a good action thril...

  5. Goodreads Review, Review by Niteowl4ever

    I generally love Clive Cussler's books, but this one kind of felt like a rehash of past novels. Not really original. I did love the underwater scenes with the sunken vessels. (Posted on 12/13/11)

  6. Goodreads Review, Review by Rob

    Classic Clive Cussler: a cliff hanger per chapter augmented by non-stop action. If you are looking for great literature, go elsewhere, but if you want pure escape fiction, this is the book. There is romance as well, so all bases are covered. (Posted on 12/8/11)

  9. Goodreads Review, Review by Victoria

    Kirk Austin ACTION MAN. typical Cussler. Bad guys with over the top toys try to outwit Kirk, Dirk and the rest of the NUMA crew, and fail. (Posted on 11/29/11)

  10. Goodreads Review, Review by Don

    As always, the usual fast paced, highly improbable Cussler fare. I always enjoy them. A perfect vacation read. (Posted on 11/25/11)
