Search - The Chase

I loved this book. I hadn't read a good Western in years -- this book makes me want to read more. Definitely a change of pace for Cussler -- being set in the American west in 1906, but it still had all the action of a good Cussler story. Having grown up in Utah, this covered a lot of familiar territory from Arizona to San Francisco to Flathead Lake in Montana. The book also included many historical details and personages such as the San Francisco earthquake, Tesla and AC electricity, Jack London, etc. But the main attraction was the nonstop action in the pursuit of a vicious bank robber!

Woo-Hoo. If you take Dirk Pitt's character and add a generous swirl of John Wayne, you end up with Isaac Bell, the hero of Cussler's latest. Set in the early 1900's it's complete with traps for bad guys, outwitting, and mad train chases. Fast read, fast paced story line, cool characters.

This book was truly entertaining to me. It was interesting and at times thrilling. I love the colorful characters who seemed so lively. I do have to say that there were parts of the book that were pretty slow but it wasn't so slow that it made the book not enjoyable.

Great book, typical of Cussler. Read it before or after 'The Wrecker'. I enjoyed it tremendously.

Another great story from Clive Cussler.

Another great read by Cussler. Love Dirk Pitt
