It's about an anthropologist and her friend who discover an ancient artifact and a group of salvagers/treasure hunters who also find something ancient. They come together to try to keep the world from ending. It's faced paced and keeps you entertained. If your a fan of Clive Cussler, you should check this one out. ( )A good book from Rollins who, as far as I'm concerned never fails to excite his readers with new theories, myths, etc. Another solid effort! To rack up the suspense Rollins has habit of seemingly killing off characters but then all of a sudden they are alive again. Some readers may dislike the predictability of this but I get involved with the characters and hate to see then go...Deep Fathom was sort of the exception to the rule and I was a little disappointed to see some characters I was interested in not come back...but then there was this twist at the end of the novel that led to a satisfying conclusion. Good read. This book took way longer than it should have to get through. It wasn't too bad - until the ending turned out to be like a bad Bruckheimer/Bay summer movie. On the process of reading. Haven't made up my mind about the quality of the book. no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0380818809, Mass Market Paperback)Ex-Navy SEAL Jack Kirkland surfaces from an aborted underwater salvage mission to find the Earth burning. Solar flares have triggered a series of gargantuan natural disasters. Earthquakes and hellfire rock the globe. Air Force One has vanished from the skies with America's president on board. Now, with the U.S. on the narrow brink of a nuclear apocalypse, Kirkland must pilot his oceangoing exploration ship, Deep Fathom, on a desperate mission miles below the ocean's surface. There devastating secrets await him—and a power an ancient civilization could not contain has been cast out into modern day. And it will forever alter a world that's already racing toward its own destruction. (retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:03 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
