About this listen
The unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Clive Cussler and Jack du Brul's Skeleton Coast, the debut title in the ever-popular Oregon Files novels. Read by the award-winning narrator Scott Brick.
1896: Four Englishmen flee for their lives across the merciless Kalahari Desert, carrying a stolen fortune in raw diamonds, and hunted by a fierce African tribe. The thieves manage to reach the waiting HMS Rove - only to die with their pursuers in a vicious storm that buries them all under tons of sand...
The present day: Juan Cabrillo and the crew of the covert combat ship Oregon have barely escaped a mission on the Congo River when they intercept a mayday from a defenceless boat under fire off the African coast. Cabrillo takes action, saving the beautiful Sloane Macintyre - who's looking for a long-submerged ship that may hold a fortune in diamonds. But what surprises Cabrillo is her story about a crazy fisherman who claims to have been attacked in the same area on the open sea by giant metal snakes. What begins as a snake hunt leads Cabrillo on to the trail of a far more lethal quarry - a deranged militant and his followers who plan to unleash the devastating power of nature itself against all who oppose them. In his latest bestseller, Clive Cussler, the Grandmaster of Adventure, shows once again that when it comes to compelling action, he's the man to beat.

Cussler never disappoints...<br /><br />
great to listen to when I'm driving, the story was excellent, and the narrator read at a better speed than some of the slower ones he does

Top three Oregon Files books
Scott Brick is the perfect narrator for this series, and this title (along with Final Option and The Jungle) are my top three Juan Cabrillo books from Clive Cussler. Plenty of action, story and personality.

Perfect way to spend time in traffic!
Another superb Cussler novel with another flawless performance by the narrator. Gripping entertainment from start to finish. Listening to it while sitting in traffic. Best way ever to to escape traffic blues. Cannot wait for the next adventure!

Not what I was hoping for.
My fault for not knowing much about Clive Cussler, but I was expecting a fairly traditional action adventure treasure hunt story set in the African desert, possibly on horses or camels.
What it actually is, is a version of Mission Impossible/The A Team/James Bond - x 10, on steroids. Including something like 1,000 ultra-violent deaths by machine gun, missiles and other high tech deadly devices. All while travelling at high speeds on boats, planes, parasails, or other means.
Basically the fantasy of a boy who loves speed, violence and ridiculously high tech toys and the admiration of beautiful women.
If that's what you're after - this is for you.
If not, leave it off the wish list.
