Se conoce como punto cero de energía y no es un mito de la ciencia. Este estado de la energía que se encuentra en la materia y que ofrece posibilidades ilimitadas existe realmente. Son muchos los expertos que han tratado de desentrañar este gran misterio de la física, pero no han tenido éxito... hasta ahora. Un excéntrico científico, que ha sido rechazado y denigrado por la comunidad internacional, parece haber hallado la fórmula. Para vengarse del mundo, y en especial de todos aquellos que lo despreciaron, ha construido dos máquinas capaces de provocar terribles terremotos y crear fisuras en las placas tectónicas. Desde las llanuras de Australia hasta la virulenta naturaleza de una isla de hielo en el océano Antártico, Kurt Austin, Joe Zavala y el resto del equipo de la NUMA deberán encontrar las dos máquinas que han desencadenado esta situación límite: si no lo hacen pronto, las consecuencias del cambio geológico podrían ser fatales.

Una catástrofe marítima ocurrió en 1859 en las aguas antárticas, donde se hundió un barco británico que transportaba prisioneros a trabajos forzados en Australia, y solo ocho náufragos sobrevivieron. Su destino dejó de interesar al gobierno británico, fueron declarados muertos y el caso se olvidó. Casi ciento cincuenta años después, la antigua tragedia resurge en inesperadas circunstancias. Un descendiente de uno de los condenados se ha convertido en uno de los hombres más ricos del mundo, pero sus métodos despiadados para acumular riqueza generan controversia. Dirk Pitt, quien trabaja para NUMA, una agencia dedicada a prevenir y combatir intervenciones ilegales en la ecología marina, se ve obligado a actuar cuando delfines y leones marinos comienzan a morir inexplicablemente en el mar de Weddell. La intervención de este magnate australiano en el equilibrio biológico de los océanos obliga a Pitt a embarcarse en su misión número trece para salvar no solo las aguas amenazadas, sino también una parte significativa de la humanidad y su civilización.

And when Napoleon dies, the bottles disappear. Treasure hunters Sam and Remi Fargo are exploring the Great Pocomoke Swamp in Delaware when they are shocked to discover a World War II German u-boat.

But another connoisseur of sorts has been looking for the bottle they've just found. He is Hadeon Bondaruk - a half- Russian, half-Persian millionaire. He claims to be a descendant of King Xerxes himself. And he wants his treasure back.

Per Dirk Pitt, semplicemente, una vita senza avventura non è degna di essere vissuta. Questa volta l'avventura si chiama Qin Shang, un abietto cinese privo di scrupoli e avido di ricchezze che ha fondato il proprio impero sul contrabbando di droga, di armi e soprattutto di vite umane, la sua merce di scambio preferita, al centro di loschi traffici d'immigrazione illegale. E adesso Qin Shang è disposto a qualsiasi cosa pur d'impadronirsi del relitto di una misteriosa nave carica di capolavori dell'antica arte cinese razziati da Chiang Kaishek durante la sua fuga dalla Cina e comprendente i resti preziosissimi del cosiddetto uomo di Pechino. La formidabile squadra della NUMA, comandata da Dirk Pitt, non ha però alcuna intenzione di stare a guardare. Seguendo le tracce di Qin Shang ha costruito un'enorme installazione portuale in una zona lontana dalle comuni rotte commerciali. Perchè ha scelto un luogo così improbabile?

Sin dudarlo, Pitt se adentra en las toneladas de hielo, pero pronto descubre que alguien lo ha precedido.

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 on the open sea by giant metal snakes in the same area. What begins as a snake hunt leads Cabrillo onto 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 page-turning action, he's the man to beat.

For five novels, Clive Cussler has immersed readers in the world of the "Oregon," a seemingly worn ship equipped with advanced technology, captained by the charismatic Juan Cabrillo. Now, the crew faces their greatest challenge yet. Corsairs, or pirates, come in various forms—from those who battled on the Barbary Coast to modern-day marauders in Africa and Asia. When the U.S. secretary of state's plane crashes en route to a summit in Libya, the CIA enlists Cabrillo to find her, fueled by distrust of the Libyans. Their concerns prove justified when the crew discovers the plane but not the secretary. Libya's new foreign minister has his own agenda for the conference, which Cabrillo must thwart. The situation ties back to a two-hundred-year-old naval battle and ancient Islamic scrolls that the Libyans are desperately seeking. The unfolding events will draw Cabrillo into a historical confrontation at sea against Islamic terrorists, with the fate of nations hanging in the balance. Readers will be captivated by the thrilling action and daring exploits of Cabrillo and his crew, as highlighted by "Publishers Weekly" regarding the "Oregon" Files series.

Reading Clive Blake's latest anthology is a life-affirming experience; light-hearted and comical, introspective and challenging. In this rhythmic exploration of both the mundane and the cosmic aspects of existence, no stone is left the promise of childhood, the uncertainties of youth and ageing, environmental apocalypse, ‘disabilit-ease', historic whodunnits, love, death and escapee milk bottles, to name a few. Clive Blake's creativity and passion stems from his solid Cornish roots, captured in his reflections on the simple grandeur of the Cornish landscape. Perhaps it is this love of his native surroundings which lends his writing a rare sense of humility and groundedness. Although some of these poems are imbued with a quiet nostalgia, there is also an overwhelming sense of awe at life, at what it has to offer if one is brave enough to look within. And, of course, the poems come with a ‘no thoughts have been harmed during the making of this book'!
