Clive Cussler Fire Strike (Oregon Files)

Product Information

Your best friend is dead because a fiendish communist cutthroat killed him. I urge you to see things as they truly are." This is one of those novels where you are thrown into a character's situation for a chapter, and then you are thrown into another character's situation in the next chapter. There are many characters - too many. As you would expect, eventually these come together to form a semi coherent plot, but it was well past the half way point of the book where that happened. A drenching rain in the moonless night was perfect cover for the three Special Boat Section operatives. I enjoy the stories where the Oregon people are in control, we get some character development, and the enemies have no idea what they are dealing with (and are doing the best they can) because, well, they have no idea this ship and crew exists. I thought the bad guys in this novel did exceptionally well against the Oregon crew even though they really knew nothing about them. It seemed like all the advanced stuff the Oregon had either did not work or was not used.

The two men sped away as the lieutenant pushed open the basement door. He pulled the light chain and called out again. "Rawlinson! Don't shoot. We're here to get you out. Are you there?" He jogged down the wooden staircase and scanned the dank room. All he found were undisturbed storage shelves laden with canned goods and household sundries.The Indonesian had booby-trapped him. By looping his finger through the grenade pin, the Indonesian's corpse pulled it when he fell away, just as he had planned.

A man of many surprises, he dedicated his life equally to his passions as he did his writing. While you might assume that his novels are roughly based on historical events, what you might not suspect is that Cussler’s fiction also bled into his real life. While Clive Cussler passed away in 2020, his Oregon Files series lives on, with the next book in the series, Clive Cussler’s Fire Strike, coming out on 11 July 2023. Read on to learn more about Clive Cussler and his incredible life before reading the book! Fun facts about author Clive Cussler You served with one of the finest commando units in the service, and participated in several top secret missions. Missions that were, shall we say, off the books?" It's a position as far away from close-quarters combat as I can imagine. But it is honorable service in Her Majesty's Navy. It's a position that requires discretion, tact, and taste. I think you'd be perfect for it. Shall I tell you about it?" Excellent. I'll have my adjutant make the necessary arrangements. In the meantime, take a few days off and enjoy Singapore. It's a truly marvelous city." Nonsense. The board of inquiry found you completely innocent of any wrongdoing whatsoever. No one holds you accountable in the least-except yourself."You might recognise him as the author of epic action novels, but beyond his writing, there are many other reasons why fans of Clive Cussler remember him as an awesome man. Before his writing career, Clive Cussler was in the United States Air Force. According to The Guardian, he was ‘never a good student,’ so he dropped out of junior college and enlisted in the US Air Force, where he worked as a ‘mechanic and flight engineer during the Korean War.’ It also seems as if you have quite a flair for the finer things in life." Bromley held up another letter. "Something of an amateur sommelier" this officer states." A lot of moving parts in this book that... sort of come together. While it's still a fun romp, some details seem thrown in and others not explored fully enough. There were three stories, combined into two, that each could have been a standalone Oregon Story.
