About This Item
Loughton, Essex, England: Piatkus, 1983. First hardcover edition. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. One of the scarcest Clive Cussler books, the first hardcover edition of this Dirk Pitt novel which was published in the US as a massmarket paperback. This was the sixth Pitt novel to be published, but it is first in chronological order.
247 pages. First edition (first hardcover printing). A very good copy in a very good dust jacket. The pages are tanned, as usual and the spine ends are a bit bumped, and the top edge is a bit dusty. The jacket is near fine but for a bit of fading to the title on the spine.

Synopsis
Pacific Vortex! is an adventure novel by Clive Cussler. This is the sixth book released featuring the author's primary protagonist, Dirk Pitt, though the author states that this was the first story that he wrote featuring the popular action hero. It was published in 1983 after much internal debate, and a great deal of prompting from his friends, family and publisher, and then as more an of ‘historical curiosity’ since Cussler didn’t believe it lived up to his other writing.
