A review by latas
Cyclops by Clive Cussler

3.0

The plot is extremely ridiculous and over the moon (sic). There are so many seemingly unrelated scenes, the super-hero Dirk Pitt in the middle of everything. As in every other Dirk Pitt- novel, he gets nearly killed at least 6 times.
Cussler makes space travel sound like a joke. The climax on the moon was the greatest comedy I have ever read. He compares the lunar surface to the Afghanistan landscape. And according to him only 1 week of preparation is sufficient to travel to the moon and fight the colonists there. Really? I wonder why the astronauts take so long to prepare for space travel in the real world.
