Wood's Hope by Steven Becker

Rating: WARTY!

"After his boat is wrecked in the Bahamas, diver Mac Travis accidentally discovers a 60-year-old plane — one rumored to contain over three billion dollars in gold." Does this dipshit author have any clue how much three billion dollars of gold weighs? Hint: it's a hell of a lot more than any airplane in existance back in the early sixties could carry, so this story is shit from the off! And who would let a plane with that much gold on it sit in the water for sixty years without making any attempt to recover it? Barf.

Storm Clouds by Steven Becker

Rating: WARTY!

"John and Mako Storm are more than just father and son" Of course they are! But Mako? Really? "they're skilled secret agents." Of course they are. But how secret are they really, if this book is about them? LOL! This is yet another dumbass novel that's part of a series each of which uses the main character's name in a hard-bitten two-word title. Barf. This genre is so overdone that it's baked into bricks you could build a house with. "And when a pharaoh's legendary tomb is located after centuries shrouded in secrecy," How is that possible with Google Earth? Yet another gung-ho example of some author thinking it's a brilliant idea to have the USA policing the world and crashing uninvited into a Middle East nation, laying down the law, telling the Egyptians what to do with their own nation. Way to go!
