My Review of Obsidian Sky:
Clive Cussler's Obsidian Sky is book 28 in the Dirk Pitt series and it's one of the best I have read in a long time in this series. It's full of twists, turns, history and more with characters that just step off the pages while you read this thrilling book. Dirk Cussler continues his dad's legacy with Dirk Pitt's adventures and in this brand new story set from Greece, Italy, Florida and more we get a sense of how Dirk Pitt evolves while facing danger in a way that always makes me smile each time I read one of these books. He is fearless, determined to do the right thing and make the world a better place regardless of who he is up against. With a trusty team from NUMA helping him along the way, we see how much these characters grow and entertain the readers amid the pages of OBSIDIAN SKY. This time around we have a two plot story that converge together in the last half of the book that blew me away.
The writing is fast and action packed right from the first page. The one thing I enjoy about Clive Cussler books is that he combines history in a way that makes sense within the story and draws the reader in right from the start. It gives more depth to the storyline plus as a motivation for the characters to deal with that leaves me breathless each time. I know that each time I see a Clive Cussler book come out in one of the series he's got, I know I am in for a wild ride from start to finish. Dirk Cussler delivers another tour de Force in OBSIDIAN SKY and I can't wait to see where he goes next in this series. If you enjoy an edge of the seat read that leaves you breathless tillt he last page is read, then get ready for OBSIDIAN SKY. Just make sure to settle in with a good drink or three as this one will capture your imagination right from page one and won't let go untilt he very last page.
This is an Objective Review and Not an Endorsement.
