RIP Clive Cussler

Clive Cussler passed away at the age of 88 on Monday, February 24th.  His wife, Janet Horvath, gave the world the sad news with this statement.

"It is with a heavy heart that I share the sad news that my husband Clive passed away Mon. It has been a privilege to share in his life. I want to thank you his fans & friends for all the support. He was the kindest most gentle man I ever met.I know, his adventures will continue."



Cussler's books, especially his earlier work, have been some of my favorites and I always looked forward to reading another adventure (or four) every year.  "Raise the Titanic" hooked me and I've been a devotee ever since.  I know his characters will continue on as he has been using co-authors for many years now and turned the Dirk Pitt series over to his son, Dirk Cussler, a few books back.  A sad day indeed.  Thank you for all the enjoyment your imagination has brought to me, Mr. Cussler.  Rest in Peace.
