Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Out of pages... cut story short...
What happened between chapters 46 and 47? In the paperback version of the book, this is around pages 470. Was it a deadline or simply a page count issue?

This book is interesting steady to read up to that point, but all of the sudden a chunk of story seems to simply be dropped in favor of getting to the end of the book. After reading 470 pages, this was very, very disappointing - to the point of writing this review and questioning whether to read another Clive Cussler book.

Really, the story builds. It is a bit slow. It takes some goofy turns -- like jousting. But, in the end there is an entertaining story up to about page 470. At that point it seems that the author's focus is simply on wrapping things up to get to an end and not really about taking the story to the end. The result was that I felt ripped off by the author and the publisher.

I threw the book away rather than ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Navigator
This Cussler was absolutely fascinating, and educational. Hard to leave it for the next time in my car.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Extremely Disappointing
Cussler can do (and has done) much better.

I approached The Navigator with the very low standards I normally impose on paperbacks I buy at an airport, but they were still far too high for this silly book.

The Navigator's characters are one dimensional at their best, and the plot's utter predictability is relieved only its occasional resort to absurd and implausible devices such as the jousting scene at the end.

There are many better ways to waste your time than reading The Navigator.





Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Mundane
I hadn't read Cussler before so was looking forward to a good vacation read. I was a bit disappointed by the story line, which sounded fairly typical. Although the book ended well, the predictability was not appreciated. So I thought it was pretty average.
