This series has really fell off the rails. No minor character development like in the other series. Repeated, cheesy phrases over and over, look how rich we are and Incredibly lucky to find stuff that'll change the world but first let's fight off a bad guy and show no emotion at all because have I mentioned their rich? skip the Fargo books.

I'm a bit disappointed. I started reading Clive Cussler's Oregon Files and Dirk Pitt and like them both.

In The Solomon Curse, the sunken temple exploration with reference to history was the best part of the book. It got me excited! The villain was sort of unexpected however I don't see how it was necessary to have that guy in Sydney in the story.

The worst part of the book for me was the conversation that seems unnatural between Sam and Remi including her team. Their jokes aren't even funny. I see that there are great reviews for this book and fans of this series. Too bad I didn't truly enjoy it and wanted to just finish it.

Another fun and exciting adventure with the Fargos. A couple of interesting plot twists that I didn't see coming and a couple of their escapes were a little over the top. But overall still a fun read.

This book was a little different from the rest of the Fargo Adventures, but I found it to be rather interesting.

This is the Cussler series that I like best. Sam and Remi are treasure hunters who are always off looking for some new thing. They have a great cast of characters that they have in each adventure as well as new people they meet on the adventure. Love listening to this series.

I didn't like this book. At all. Well, I couldn't even finish it.
The book is so fast paced and it's incredibly rushed that you don't have time to get to know the characters. The characters are too stereotypical, too, which is another reason why I didn't like this book. So have mercy on yourself and don't read it. It's a complete torture.

I really enjoyed this book! Filled with tons of action and exploration! Not usually something I would find myself reading, however, I was pleasantly surprised. Recommended :D

I enjoyed the pace of the story, but this book is not my cup of tea. Though characters are really well defined :)
