Has the first section hooked your interest?

I wouldn't say "hooked" but it was a fast read for this section and interesting. I was bummed about Muhammad - he seemed like he might be someone that would last at least a few more chapters.

I'm not hooked but Cussler usually takes his time building up a story.

Grabbed me by the throat, ;D

>4 Sergeirocks: Careful of the things that "grab you by the throat" in these books:) >3 Olivermagnus: I agree that Cussler's books all take time to build up and grab you. I'm glad that MacD s getting along so well with Juan and the others so far.

It is building nicely, very enjoyable and very readable but would still like a bit more of a clue about what is going on and where we are heading.

Just left me wondering how all these things will tie in. I am looking forward to the next section.
