Book Reviews of Deep Fathom

If you are looking for a treasure hunt with lots of action, this is it! This was my 1st book by Rollins and I'm excited to read more of his books. Twists and turns galore run through this book. It was a fast and very entertaining read.

As always, James Rollins writes an exciting and action packed book!

Great Read, hard to put down

Kept me on the edge of my seat.

Excellant adventure as all of Rollin's books are.

This the second book I've read by Rollins, I liked its plot. It starts off like a Clive Cussler adventure but has a Sci-Fi leaning to it. Though ( as you often read in the book review of others) the scientific implausibility may at times seem far-fetched, I rather appreciate that poetic licence.

Another fabulous read from this author, I am a die hard fan now! It's like Clive Cussler without the sometimes wry sense of humor, but tons more facts and action and great story lines mixed with historical facts and fiction. And always a little touch of romance thrown in without muddying up the story with it. Unlike Clive Cussler, we don't have the same hero in each book so we get a fresh start each time and no history of the characters to have to recall.Makes me want to go out exploring the locales he provides each time. I love this author.

Probably Rollins 3rd best book - enjoyable read

Really great pace...I didn't want to put it down. I am turning into a big James Rollins fan!

Another good story line from Rollins! A great read.

A thriller and a good page turner!

A very interesting story and a good writer.

an adventure novel like no other

Starts great, slows down. Not one of Rollins best.

Good, but not as good as some of his others.

Good page-turner.

Nice twist at the end

Fun read, lots of adventure, thrills and chills.

All of Rollins works are MUST READS for me and this was one of his best!

on the day everything changed forever... on the day the end began ... the sea revealed a mystery!!

solar flares triggered a series of natural disasters. Earthquakes & hellfire rock the globe. Death toll rises at an allarming rate and in the middle of this Air Force One and America's President have vanished from the skies!

The book was great but I didn't care for his descriptions of Chatan City, obviously he never went there and got his information for an outdated history book.

Because the bustling city I lived in for 7 years it is not the quaint little village described in the book

If your into water adventures this book will work for you. Though Other books his are better.

This is a typical James Rollins book.Fun, but not substantial.

a great thriller from James Rollins

I love James Rollins books! This has an unexpected ending, which I liked.

Due to the worldwide earthquakes, many impossibilities have surfaced...literally. There are many things happening around the world and all are connected. It is Jack Kirkland's duty to figure out the strange occurences and the seeming conspiracy of the plane crash.

Jack is an ex navy SEAL who has been off the charts for ten years when his vessel is called back to duty. Air Force One has crashed and the President is presumed dead. Jack's ship is needed in the Pacific Islands for salvage duty. He finds very strange things under the sea including hieroglyphics. His fiercest enemy, David Spangler is in charge of the military's investigation and will do whatever it takes to have revenge on Jack for his sisters death. The animosity between these two really provides some great conflict and fabulous storyline intertwined with the disaster, the coverup and the recovery efforts.

While exploring the Dragons, an island that surfaced due to the earthquakes, Karen and Miyuki are attacked and forced inside the pyramids. Strange hieroglyphics are discovered and after taking pictures they are forced to flee for their lives. Exhaustive internet searches connect them with Jack's ship and then the fun really begins.

James Rollins books always remind me of Dirk Pitt from Clive Cussler. This one was wonderful and totally unrealistic but fun nonetheless.

This was a great read.

I love James Rollins books. However, this one had a really slow start for me. I hung in there and in the end it was really good.

Non-stop action...save the world suspense.

I've become a big Rollins fan and this one did not disappoint me. That said, I think the hatred of David for Jack was extremely overblown. Every hero needs a nemesis, but the reasoning behind this almost defies belief.

Solar flares have triggered a series of gargantuan natural disasters.Earthquakes and hellfire rock the world.The death toll mounts, and Air Force One and America's president have vanished from the skies.

Ex-Navy Seal, Jack Kirkland surfaces from an aborted underwater salvage mission to find the earth burning and the U S on the narrow brink of a nuclear apocalypse. Now, aboard his oceangoing exploration ship, Deep Fathom, Kirkland is on a desperate mission that is leading him to an eath-shattering discovery miles below the ocean's surface.
