A classic Dirk Pitt adventure novel. This adventure begins in 1858 with the discovery of an anchient ship wreck by an Antartics whaler, makes a stop in Colorado, and concludes in 2001 with Dirk, as usual saving the day. The threat of Armageddon and Nazi's are also present in the story.

If you like Clive Cussler and are fans of Dirk Pitt you will appreciate Atlantis Found. Or, if you want to try something new, try Atlantis Found.

When mysterious black obsidian skulls and other artifacts of an exceedingly ancient culture begin to turn up in odd places, Pitt jumps in with both feet. It soon becomes dangerously apparent that a powerful, amoral group of fanatics calling itself the Fourth Empire wants the strange discoveries to remain underground. Pitt teams up with a beautiful red-haired expert in ancient languages to decipher the meaning of the artifacts. They were made 10 millennia ago in a then-temperate Antarctica by a seafaring civilization advanced enough to predict its own destruction by a comet impact. Now the Fourth Empire (whose literal and figurative progenitor comes as no surprise) is predicting a similar disaster in only a matter of months, and preparing to take control of the earth.

Great book by Clive. As always, a little on the outrageous side in terms of believability, but a great storyline. This book will hook you and pull strongly.
