Keeping tabs on authors in LINKcat: Clive Cussler


Clive Cussler hardcover titles on the shelves of the Middleton Public Library

Clive Cussler, Best-Selling Author and Adventurer, Is Dead at 88.  (The New York Times, 2/26/2020)
Mayan jungles, undersea kingdoms, ghost ships, evil forces out to destroy the world, beautiful women, heroes modeled on himself — Mr. Cussler’s vivid literary fantasies and his larger-than-life exploits swirled together for four decades, spinning off more than 85 books and locating almost as many shipwrecks. 
A college dropout who once pumped gas and wrote advertising copy, Mr. Cussler resorted to a hoax to get his first book published. But his work — mostly action thrillers of the James Bond-Indiana Jones kind, plus nonfiction accounts of his marine quests and a few children’s books — made him a global celebrity. 
His books sales have been staggering — more than 100 million copies, with vast numbers sold in paperback at airports.

Lots of titles by Clive Cussler to be found at LINKcat libraries, none of which Retiring Guy has read.
