Product Description
1896: Four Englishmen flee for their lives across the merciless Kalahari Desert carrying a stolen fortune in raw diamonds and hunted by a fierce African tribe.

 Good bye Bond, Hello Cabrillo May 28, 2010
Mr. M. S. Gini (Ashford,Middx, England)
If Clive Cussler is a V8 Engine then Jack Du Brul must be the twin turbo's.
I have Loved Clives work for many years But this new partnership, Well all I can say is I love it. After the last two bond films (if you can call them that!) I have been missing a certain something. I am glad to say it has been found alive and well in the Oregon Files. KEEP 'EM COMING Clive & JACK!
 All Action Adventure Story May 15, 2009
J.Flood (Dublin,Ireland)
I was not too enthusiastic when I first picked up this novel. I had read only one other novel involving the Corporation, and that was Sacred Stone, which I found to be a disappointment. However, if you can get your head around the improbable scenario of environmentalists allying themselves with a brutal African dictator, Skeleton Coast is not too bad an adventure story. Certainly an improvement on Sacred Stone.
The novel has the usual Clive Cussler traits, the damsel in distress, the good guys having large amounts of luck, and convenient coincidences. It also has a lot of action, as expected, and kept me interested, pretty much throughout.
Cussler at his best April 23, 2009
Espen Hult (Norway)
In the new series the Oregon Files, Cussler introduces a new hero, Juan Cabrillo and his team of mercenaries onboard the old (looking) ship the Oregon. But the cast, plot and storytelling is still pure Cussler at his best!
Skeleton Coast is number four in a series (so far) of six books about the Oregon and Juan Cabrillo. The books can be read individually, but your probably better of starting with the first book "Golden Buddha", and read on from there.

I have struggled to turn any pages of this novel, i have enjoyed many Cussler novels. I have got to page 437 and i have had enough, i have been bored and have decided to give the book away to a colleague because I can stand no more. The plot is weak and unbelievable i look forward to picking up another novel that will keep me interested
Pretty fast paced September 27, 2008

The Skeleton Coast was an improvement over the last one of his that I read, The Treasure of Khan. This was back to Cussler being fast paced and unbelievable as ever, but an easy, quick and enjoyable read.
Recommended if you want something which isn't going to tax the brain.
