3.) Atlantis Found

      I am reading a book called Atlantis Found by Clive Cussler. Right now I am on Chapter 45 out of 51.

      Since my last post this book has gotten better. Dirk Pitt and Al Giodirno, who both work for the NUMA, were told to go home by their boss. Even though they were the ones that were most familiar with the Wolf's plans, they were told that the government would handle it. Even though Pitt and Giordino were told to go strait to Washington D.C., they still took a plane to Antarctica to assist in helping stop the Ross Ice Shelf from being broken. They got a Snow Cruiser which is basically a huge machine that can plow through snow, metal, and almost anything else. Meanwhile, the U.S. Special Force Teams were on their way to Antarctica to stop the Wolfs and save the world. The Special Force team was losing really badly to the Wolf's security gaurds, and were extremely relieved when a huge Snow Cruiser came running through. The Snow Cruiser, which was driven by Pitt and Giordino, flipped the "war". The Snow Cruiser broke into the control room and destroyed the clock that was going to tell the machines to break the ice shelf. Pitt and Giordino saved the world from a terrible apocalypse.

      I like this book now because it is exciting and has a lot going on. It keeps you on the edge of your seat most of the time. It isn't my favorite book, but I would recomend it to people. I think that Clive Cussler wrote this because it is a good story to talk and write about, and also a good and fun thing to expand on. Also it could have just been something he was interested in, or another good adventure for his character Dirk Pitt.

      I htink that the theme of this book is that anything is possible. Anything could happen and you just don't know it can or has until you see it. Also that nomatter what the consequences, you shoul do what is right and never to let anybody down.

      I think that the best characte is Dirk Pitt because nomatter what he looks out for everybody. He's always there when somebody needs help or a hand. Also, he is just a caring person. You have seen diffferent sides to him because he can get sarcastic and very upset when people make him mad. Most of the time he trys to be funny and lighten the mood.

      I think that an important quote is made by Major Cleary. He was the head of the Special Force Team that attacked the Wolf's compound. He said, " I can't believe a couple of oceangraphic people from NUMA, untrained to fight hostiles, could do so much damage." I think that this is important because this gives an example  that anything is possible. Even if the odds are against you, it never hurts to try and do something that is right. You never know what could happen until you try.

       I am almost done witht this book and my only questions have to do with what happens at the end. Do the Wolfs get away? What happened to Pat O'Connel? And lastly, do Pitt and Giordino get awards or some kind of recegnition?
