Resumen del Editor

Juan Cabrillo and the crew of the Oregon must track down a nuclear torpedo before it unleashes World War III in this electrifying new installment of the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

When Juan Cabrillo fails to capture the leader of Mexico’s most dangerous drug cartel and loses an Oregon crew member in the process, he’s determined to get revenge. Little does he know that the explosion he just narrowly escaped was merely the latest flash of violence from a machine of war that has existed for decades, dating from the bloodiest episode in Armenia’s history.

Cabrillo’s Corporation of mercenaries may have finally met its match in The Pipeline—a criminal syndicate passed down from father to son across generations. A group that sits with its finger on the trigger of a torpedo so deadly it could level entire cities. With millions of innocent civilians hanging in the balance, the Oregon’s crew must unravel a tangle of drug-smuggling routes and international conspiracies spanning from the Aegean Sea to the Indian Ocean, putting their lives on the line to find the weapon before its countdown hits zero.

A nice little audiobook get away

I bought the audio book. Helps pass the Driving time away. Gets a little long in some places. overall I enjoyed it.

Great Listen

Exciting action. Great weapons. Animated reader. I really enjoyed the characters, the plot and the dialogue.

Another Hit

Another Hit, string story line, great tech mix, and the bad guys we’ll let’s just say they lose

Fun

As always very enjoyable. Full of fun fight scenes, and lots of action. A good read for all ages.

Another One 👏🏻👏🏻

Great story line, with the usual in depth details and of course a great read 🫡

Little off the mark

As always I enjoyed the Oregon file. The attraction has been the fact that the stories are centered around the ship. Juan is the chairman but he’s not the hero in stereotypical like Dirk and the other Numa storylines by Cussler. This book was written more in that genre than the ensemble stories of the past.
It made the story cumbersome at points and stole some of the intrigue. Bad time windows, unnecessary dilemmas are the things that past stories avoided. When the Oregon shoots the tungsten rounds the fight ends. Having Juan surviving chemical fires while fighting two people with one arm before the ship sinks and no actual help from the technology of the Oregon except for rescuing was campy.

Very good, except…

Some very good writing but the hero in peril scenes seemed to go on a beat too long. Overdone on ‘just when you thought he was safe’ moments. I found myself saying “alright, come on, you can’t be serious. Enough already. Move on.” during several of them. As you can tell, I’m not a writer and I don’t mean this as criticism as much as a learning tool.

This one was too far out of reality

Juan Cabrio is not captain America he has seemed like a lucky pretty stellar guy but this book made him seem like a superhero. He was more reckless as well.

The Oregon Continues to thrill

More twists and turns and gadgets than ever before. Hold on for a high speed ride
