Devil's Gate: A Novel from the NUMA Files

Definitely Yes. Story had many characters, much action, good plot development. Much back and forth between scenes / characters. Found myself "rewinding" to make sure I hadn't missed anything. Would eagerly listen to this book again now that I better understand the twists and turns in the plot. Could now listen continuously without having to occasionally "rewind."

Almost all of CC's books utilize a similar type of flash from one scene to another. Several characters appear in CC's books. Each set of characters has a small subplot related to the major plot.

Scott Brick is phenomenal in his portrayal of male, female, and foreign dialect voices. No problem ever identifying what role he is playing at any given moment.

The dramatic escape from the minisub and the utilization of the robot Rapunzel in this escape.

I NEVER hesitate to burn a credit for a CC book narrated by Scott Brick. I've NEVER been disappointed. Five star in all categories!!

Scott has a voice that has been tuned to the same frequency as Cussler... he has read a number of them, and now when I hear one he did not read, it takes me a while to start enjoying it..... Cussler and Brick, a number one combo!

yes

This book was exactly for my taste. Fast paced with lot of adventures. Strong characters. Cool mass destruction weapon, which was destructed by the end, of course. I don't know why I haven't read Cussler novels before, but I definitely will.

Cannot say, as I didn't read the printed version.

Kurt Austin is a strong character as he usually is, but the Trout's are well characterized and an integral part of the story.

Scott keeps the pace well and portrayed the Trout's really well.

I could come back to it.

I felt that the previous novel, Medusa, was more intense read, but this is a good story. It just seems to take a while to develop. Abridged version might be better.

The narrator is wonderful. He brings each character to life and uses his emotion to make you almost feel like you are watching a movie. You cannot find that in a book. Especially if you have poor eyesight, as I do, and must struggle to read normal sized print. But I prefer the audio books over even large print books, as long as the narrator knows what he or she is doing.

My favorite characters are Kurt Austin and Admiral Sandecker. Kurt is a real rough houser. and knows how to deal with the bad guys. He and his partner are quite humorous at times. I have a picture of Admiral Sandecker in my head, from the movie "Sahara" I think they cast the part very well. I like the Admiral because he always has his peoples backs.

He did an excellent job with all the characters. If I have to choose, I would say (I hope I have this name right) Joe Zavala.

If I could have, yes. However, it is quite long. It was compelling and full of action. It is a two part download and I am nearly finished with part two.

No I think I have covered everything.

Here's another success story of Clive Cussler, his NUMA series books are great and this one is no exception. The story keeps you interested, the characters are well defined and the being done by Scott Brick adds the icing to the cake. You will not be disappointed I recommend this one to any who are a fan of the NUMA series and underwater adventures.

Not a bad book, but the characters were not as interesting as those in "The Chase"

Fun, exciting and thrilling

Dirk Pitt - always professional and in control

When they find the Russian spy diving among the ruins of the downed plane

Yes I would have enjoyed listening all at once

Great book very entertaining

This book will be another classic Cussler book. It has lots of what you usually look for in a Cussler novel. Glad to have it in my collection.

IT'S A NICE COMFORTABLE LISTEN WITH LOTS OF HISTORIC VALUE. I ALWAYS ENJOY CLIVE C.'S BOOKS AND LOVE SCOTT BRICK READING THEM.
