Le Livre de Poche: Atlantide

Meer over het boek

Dirk Pitt embarks on a thrilling adventure as he uncovers the mysteries of Atlantis in a captivating tale from a master of adventure fiction. Clive Cussler, known for his intricate plotting and vibrant narrative, presents what may be his most audacious novel. The story begins in September 1858, when an Antarctic whaler discovers a wreck with a frozen crew and crates containing peculiar antiquities, including a skull made of black obsidian. Fast forward to March 2001, where a team of anthropologists is trapped deep within Colorado rock after encountering strange inscriptions. In April 2001, Pitt, alongside the U.S. National Underwater and Marine Agency, faces an extraordinary threat from a vessel that should have been lost for decades. As he investigates these interconnected events, Pitt delves into an ancient mystery with dire modern implications. He confronts a formidable enemy and races against time to protect not only his own life but also the fate of the world. With suspenseful twists and remarkable set pieces, this adventure promises to be one of Cussler's finest. The author expresses his joy in reinventing aspects of Atlantis's civilization, hoping readers enjoy the journey as much as he did while writing it.
