"I fell in love with Crosby, Stills, and Nash's song 'Southern Cross' when I was fifteen. By the time I got to college, 'I'm going to sail around the world someday' was sort of my pickup line." Continue »

Plague Ship (Oregon Files)

by Clive Cussler

Plague Ship (Oregon Files) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Review:

"In the dependably entertaining if less than top-notch fifth Oregon Files thriller from bestseller Cussler and Du Brul (after Skeleton Crew), Capt. Juan Cabrillo, who heads the Corporation, a covert military company for hire, and the multifaceted crew of the Oregon, a high-tech ship disguised to look like a tramp steamer, take on a group known as the Responsivists. The Responsivists publicly espouse a program of global population control, but are secretly planning a devastating attack on the human race utilizing a virulent virus found aboard an ancient ship that may be Noah's Ark. The authors are up to their usual high standards when in fighting mode, though the chief villain, the doctor who heads the Responsivists, falls short of Juan's billing as 'the single-most-evil human being I have ever met.' Readers may wish that next time out the bad guys put up more of a struggle. (June)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)

Synopsis:

Cussler's bestselling series charts the exploits of the "Oregon," a covert ship completely dilapidated on the outside but, on the inside, packed with sophisticated weaponry and intelligence-gathering equipment. This fifth exhilarating adventure is available in a tall Premium Edition. (Men's Adventure)
