Skeleton Coast
by Clive Cussler and Jack DuBrul is another of the books given to us
by one of my husband's coworkers. I guess either they really liked
Clive Cussler or they were given lots of his books and passed them
along.
Another book whose
intended audience is probably guys… or seriously action loving
ladies. It started with a bit more action than some, but still took
a while for me to get into. The descriptions of guns, boats, and
fight scenes are the main reasons I consider this more a guys sort of
read.
It was interesting
once I got into it. This is another example of a past incident tying
into the modern events with which the novel predominantly deals. I
do definitely like this aspect of Cussler's novels. It's maybe even
a little fun to try to figure out how the historic event will tie
into the modern ones.
This story seemed to
have more gross parts than the others I've reviewed heretofore. I
did not like that part of it at all and sorta skimmed through some
parts of that nature. I prefer less description of blood and guts
sorts of things. But I know guys often find that really interesting
and even enjoyable… another reason I think this book's audience is
intended to be fellas.
My children will not
read this one. It is for adults because of the things I've listed
above.
Have you read
Skeleton Coast by Clive Cussler? What did you think of it?
