Trojan Odyssey

A mysterious brown tide in the ocean off Nicaragua is threatening the marine ecosystem, and NUMA marine engineers Dirk Pitt Jr. and Summer are investigating when a catastrophic storm forces a mass rescue of passengers from a floating luxury hotel. In the storm's wake, Dirk Pitt discovers something his son and daughter uncovered that points toward a human conspiracy far more dangerous than any natural disaster, rooted in Norse mythology and Jules Verne's imagination. Clive Cussler's seventeenth Dirk Pitt novel is notably the first to introduce Pitt's twin children as major characters.

Scott Brick carries the Pitt universe with his characteristic blend of authority and action-thriller momentum, navigating the novel's large ensemble and its ambitious global scope with ease. The Verne and Viking mythology elements give the story unusual texture, and Brick makes the historical and scientific digressions as engaging as the action sequences. At just over fourteen hours, this is a pivotal entry in the series.
