Lots of twists and turns that keep you guessing throughout the whole book. Good read for anyone who likes adventure

This was exactly what you're looking for in a pirate book! There's lots of twists and turns....bad guys, treasure map & decoding!

Treasure hunting team Sam and Remi Fargo are hoping to enjoy a long-overdue vacation. While browsing through a used bookstore, they come across a rare book that may hold the clues to a centuries-old mystery. To make matters even more interesting, Sam and Remi aren't the only ones interested in the book, for soon, the bookstore owner is murdered.Embarking on another round-the-world treasure hunt, Sam and Remi will visit such places as South America and Great Britain while trying to decipher the hidden code from the book. But Charles Avery, a ruthless corporate raider who has his own sights set on the treasure, has his minions trying to find the treasure before Sam and Remi do. The end result is a world-wide chase to locate the missing treasure of English King John.I'm a fan of the Fargo series, and I especially enjoyed "Pirate". As with the earlier books in this series, this entry is based on history. I enjoy Cussler's characters, and the plot is loaded with twists and turns. Highly recommended.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s a decent read. The books are just too formulaic. Every book is the same and none of the books have been that exciting. I feel like I’m watching The Librarian when I want to watch Indiana Jones. The main bad guys are really bad in every book and you never feel that the Fargos are in any real danger. The Fargo novels are really made for tv movies in book form. I think I’ll take a break and read something else before I continue with the next book.

Into the deep By Aris spanosPirate, by Clive Cussler is an adventure novel in the “Fargo series”. In this series unstoppable husband and wife team Sam and Remi Fargo fly out on their private jet to extravagant destinations and finding adventure along the way. The story depicts Sam and Remi on a beach in the south pacific when they stumble upon a clue to a large hidden treasure in the deep. The three main characters- Sam, Remi, and JackSam and Remi are a married couple who travel across the world and always find adventure. They are thrill seeking people who are willing to take risks and are always ready for adventure. They both are very experienced in the water, being scuba divers and are good boat captains.Next Jack Is an eccentric millionaire who will do whatever it takes for a quick buck. He is a very greedy man who will sacrifice the safety of his team to make money. Also he is very impatient even though there is a race to find the treasure he only cares about himself making money.This book takes place in a small unknown island in the middle of the south pacific in modern times. This setting is very important, because the the island is so secluded if something goes wrong during a dive or their boat sinks it is sudden death. That is why during chapter 12 they found a dead body near one of their clues showing how dangerous their journey to the treasure is. Also it shows how bad what Jack is doing by only caring about the money and not his team.The entire book is about Courage and Discovery. This is because all the odds there against Sam and Remi. They found a dead body and did not get discouraged, they were against a millionaire who would do whatever he could to find the treasure, they powered though all of their gear failure and still discovered the treasure and beat jack.Lastly my favorite part of this novel is the scene where Sam is 50 meter below the surface and is in view to one of the best leads they have when a critical hose in his regulator bursts sending him flying to the surface and nearly ending the race altogether, this took place near the middle of the novel on pg 213-218 chapter 19. This was very scary for me being a scuba diver and knowing what would be going through his head as his first stage hose was breaking .But like any book, this was not perfect, I feel as though the author could have added a few more scuba gear failures to make the hunt even more of a struggle as in already was. Also I would have liked a few more details about the surrounding fish and the coral structures in general. There were no mistakes generally and this book was very entertaining and a good way to spend my free time, and it was great to come home from school and read this book. Lastly if I were to rate this book I would give it a 4.5 stars. I believe no book is perfect and this book is not eather. It is a great book but is missing a few details I would have liked to have seen that is why I gave this novel a 4.5 out of a perfect 5 stars.

Excellent

Excellent plot

Good yarn, as usual, but... there is NO WAY you will get a gun into the uk as described..... Sorry Clive.... a step too far in imagination.

Another enjoyable Fargo story. This one is centered around an old English royal treasure, and takes the Fargos around the Caribbean, the Americas, England and other places. As with the last few Fargo books, this one grabs you with the narrative and keeps you engrossed all the way through. There's a wee bit of historical education along the way, which is fine, as it adds both context to the story as well as some interesting tidbits for the reader's general knowledge.If there's one complaint it's the abrupt ending, something Cussler's books seem to be favouring: the authors spend hundreds of pages developing the narrative, with lots of detail, and then everything wraps up quickly at the end in the span of a few pages, with little detail. It's almost as if they tired of the book, or hit their word limit and wrapped quickly. But, as mentioned, this is something I've seen more and more of in Cussler's books of late. Whether good or bad depends on your view, but I find it always a little unnerving to go from detailed narrative to wrap up so quickly.Overall an enjoyable read, a worthy addition to the Fargo series, and a good extension of the Cussler line. Engrossing, fun, and interesting. A solid adventure in a great series.

The book is very interesting. The packing was good
