Dragon (Dirk Pitt Adventures (Paperback))

The Dirk Pitt series is great. Enjoyed it right to the end! Cussler has a way of taking the past, making it a little more interesting by building a tale around a single event. For a book written in 1988, it's amazing how close he came to the way events have unfolded in the past few years (middle-east & Egyptian situations)!

Kadar the assassin has been partners and friend of the ex knight templer for years. He arranged for Ware and his wife and sister in law to find a new place to put down roots. He has been building some of those himself. Roots, he had never had them in his life before. But there are still past promises that have to be filled
Selene has loved Kadar since he rescued her from the silk house all those years ago.. She has grown up and wants him to finally claim her for himself, and she is getting impatient.
But the past has come calling. They want Kadar to return to the fold and take on one more job.. To make sure he will do as told they kidnap Selene and start a private war.

I am halfway through the book and am very excited to get back to reading it. Exciting and well written so far. Some of Pitt's near misses are a little far-fetched, but it is entertainment. Every time I read one of Cussler's books it is like getting a history lesson.
