Customer Reviews

Excellent.

A very good techno-diving thriller. Stevenson actually manages to live up to the obvious marketing advantages of his famous name. Along with Cussler, Poyer, McKinna, and a few others,R.L.S. the IIIrd delivers excellent deep-sea genre fiction, heavy on the diving.

perfect for seal team enthusiasts

This book is one of the few i could not put down.It is also one that you can root for the good guys.Dirk Pitt has a close competitor here.

Excellent Adventure

Robert Louis Stevenson III does an excellent job with his 2nd novel. Both Bright Star and Torchlight are books you can't put down. If you like military espionage you will love this book. Phillip Drake is a wonderful, believable hero.

An Excellent Sequel to TORCHLIGHT!

Look out, Dirk Pitt! There's a new scuba diving action hero on the literary block . . . . . and his name is Philip Drake.This book has it all! A megalomaniacal industrialist highjacks a submarine and uses it to steal a top secret laser satellite code-named Bright Star from a scuttled Space Shuttle off the coast of Maine. Will he succeed? Not if Philip Drake has anything to say about it!An excellent novel! Looking forward to the next installment!

His Grandfather would be proud...
