Book Description:
The author of the bestselling NUMA and Dirk Pitt series returns with an all-new novel of adventure and intrigue featuring his unbeatable hero of the high seas -- Juan Cabrillo.
Cabrillo and his motley crew aboard the clandestine spy ship Oregon have made a very comfortable and very dangerous living working for high-powered Western interests. But their newest clients have come from the Far East to ask for Cabrillo's special brand of assistance: a consortium of Japanese shipping magnates whose fortunes are being threatened by brutal pirates trolling the waters of Southeast Asia.
Normally, such attacks on the high seas are limited to smaller ships and foreign-owned yachts-easy targets on the open ocean. Now, however, giant commercial freighters are disappearing. But when Cabrillo confronts the enemy, he learns that the pirates' predations hide a deadly international conspiracy-a scheme of death and slavery that Juan Cabrillo is going to blow out of the water.

I have to say that of the 3 books in the Oregon series I've read, I have to say I enjoyed the Golden Buddha (co-authored by Craig Dirgo) more than Dark Watch and Sacred Stone.
That being said, I'm a sucker for a series, so I'll definitely read Skeleton Coast.
As always, your mileage may vary...
Chris S. (Cussler's Oregon team back in action, another page turning adventure. Just two words for the book, IT ROCK'S.
Not a Dirk Pitt adventure, but Clive Cussler still... so a good read!
pirates at sea, ships disappearing, human predators, guns, bombs, exciting read
Cover to cover action and adventure from the Oregon Files series.
If you like Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt series then you will enjoy this adventure as well. As with all of his books there is drama, suspense, danger and it moves along at a great clip.
Elaine (Clive Cussler fans are in for a treat, I thought that the Dirk Pitt novels were books that I had to read cover to cover, Cussler's latest series based on the Oregon files rank right up there.
