This was one of the early Dirk Pitt adventures and it was great fun. Some of the more recent Cussler stories such as "Lost Empire" pale in comparison. Cyclops had it all - a treasure hunt story, a hidden colony on the moon, a secret Russian station on an island off Cuba, and a nasty Russian plot to kill Castro and take over Cuba. Although this story was definitely dated (the Russians are still the bad guys), this was a non-stop action adventurer. I really enjoyed it!

If you're looking for a cheesy action-adventure with a typically perfect male hero this book is it.

This is just one of a series written by Clive Cussler and I have always found them to be very intertaining and have read the entire series. Always hoping for another to be added to the series.
I thoroughly enjoyed this one. Action packed and fast paced.
All Cussler novels are great reads with very interesting historical facts thrown in with this being no exception.
As usual a great read from Clive Cussler.
A wealthy American financier disappears on a treasure hunt in an antique blimp. From Cuban waters, the blimp drifts toward Florida witha crew of dead men -- Soviet cosmonauts.

A little different but awesome!!
Ah, Dirk in one of his best...sigh.
If you like SiFi it is a good one!
Great Clive Cussler Dirk Pitt story.
Cussler will not disappoint with this book! Wrote is 1986 and is still revelent in todays world. One of his best. Good action, plot interesting as always. Love Dirk Pitt, and you know he is going to survive, but in this one I thought he was a goner many times.
A good read.
A good read.
Typical Clive Cussler with multiple intertwined plots for Dirk Pitt.
I love all his books. I usually can't put them down

Another great adventure by Clive Cussler!
Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt series is lots of fun and excitement with a sly twist or two thrown in for good measure. You can get in a lot of travel reading his books without having to leave the house.
