Cyclops by Clive Cussler
2.0
Well....I finished it.
Some of the action parts were good but......it felt very....lacking. The sarcastic quips and banter, the ingenuity of Pitt and the, at times, cheesy romance bits were missing. Even the historical pieces fell a little flat. This was filled with run on sentences, a plot that jumped all over the place and a hell of a lot more Deus Ex Machina than is normal in this series. Yes Pitt does save the day and survives death on more than one occasion. But in this case, it was like he just got up and walked away like he was friggen Deadpool or something. And.....I didn't really care if he was ok or not. Its so weird. Normally, he's a decent character with an insatiable curiosity, a witty sense of humor and a strong sense of justice. In this.....he was too flat, cold and unfeeling.
Fairly disappointing, overall.
