BAHAMAS BLUE

I WAITED ABOUT 6 MONTHS TO GETTHIS BOOK AND I'M READING IT NOW. IWAS LOOKING FOR AN EARLY DAVID BOYER TITLE AND WANTED THIS ONE. THE WAIT WAS WELL WORTH IT. IN 2009 IREAD A NEWER TITLE OF HIS AND HAD SELECTED A COUPLE OF HIS WORKS THAT YEAR. HE HAS BECOME ONE OF MY FAVORITE AUTHORS. I JUST COMPLETED "THE CRISIS" AND IN NEED OF SOME LIGHTER READING NEEDED "BAHAMAS BLUE". IT IS FASINATING TO SEE AN AUTHOR WITH A HISTORY OF ALMOST 20 YEARS. I THOROUGHLY ENJOY BOTH BOOKS.

A Solid Maritime Thriller

Salvage diver Lyle "Tiller" Galloway just wants to forget the days when he smuggled drugs for a ruthless criminal known as "The Baptist." His former boss wants him back, however, this time for a dangerous salvage operation that will make Galloway rich if he lives through it. It's a well-used plot, but Poyer makes it work by paying attention to the details. The underwater scenes are excellent (as always), the descriptions of the Bahamas are vivid, and the wealth of technical details about diving and salvage work never slow the plot down. Best of all, unlike _Hatteras Blue_, the big plot twist that Poyer springs near the end of the story makes sense and ties together a lot of seemingly loose ends. Galloway is still a likable character, still wishing he could shake off the past and still unable to do it.As maritime thrillers go, _Bahamas Blue_ isn't quite up to the standards set by Sam Llewellyn, Hammond Innes, and Brian Callison, but its a solid piece of work and an excellent choice for fans of the genre.

Excellent Reading

This book is a great book for kid's age 14 and up. I say this because I dispise reading, and this book just made me stop everything and start reading. For anybody who can't sit and read a book this one work's. Gauranteed to get your attention! I am a 18 year old male!

Non-Stop Adventure, Scuba Diving, and Beautiful Bahamas!

Just got finished with this book(5/99). It's was great. It's was spell binding until the last page! Descriptions of the islands, under water, boats, people, and the action made you feel you were right there. Excellent book! Personally, I'm going to buy his other "Blue" books...

Like the Sea and boats? You'll like this book!

Don't let the fact that this book is not brand new or not expensive put you off! The characters are great and the price is a bargain! This is a book for techno-types who like the sea and boats. The main character is NOT a superhero and not a real loser either. Gee.. a real person. Good techno fiction.. action, diving, technology.. good stuff. -- Frank Derfle
