Not sure what to say?

To the most gifted and knowledgeable writer. You are the only author that can pull me back into a “reading phase” after a long drought, and all at once I have a thirst that’s unquenchable for a moment in time. Just was brought back into my love of books by you again, starting with a re-read of Shockwave and here I am 3 weeks and 16 re-reads of your books later and still loving every moment - anxious when I have to put one down and excited for the moment I can resume. Thank you for bringing...

To the best

You have given myself and others adventures and hidden historical events I thank you RIP

His books gave many hours of enjoyment. And I appreciate the audio books too which added life and realism to his stories. Thank you to a very gifted writer.

Over 2 years have passed and I have only just discovered the passing of Clive Cussler. I just want to express my condolences, but also to say thank you for the many many hours of happy reading that you gave to me and millions of people all over the world. A huge thank you. Rest in Peace. Xx

My mom bought a Cyclops paperback for her brother and ended up reading it herself (had to buy another!). She gave me the paperback, and I loved it. I don't buy books (usually go to library); but every time a new Dirk Pitt book came out, I'd buy it immediately. Thanks for many hours of fantastic reading. I'll cherish my collection of books by this guy. Godspeed to a great author.

RIP Clive. You will be forever missed.

I'm late in writing this but just found this site. Words cannot express what Clive's books have meant to me throughout my life. I first read 'Raise the Titanic' when I was 10 years old then 25 years later I re-read it thereafter I started buying & reading all the books in order including the non-fiction. No one else writes books like this with history past & present intertwined. They reawaked my love of history & you will forever be missed.

Thank you for your endearing novels Clive, God bless you and your family.
