Well, it‘s a lot better with the context of the first two books but still not my favorite.

Do you pick the book or does the book pick you? I knew I wanted to cleanse the palate with classic fiction. Thought maybe Hunchback or Princess Bride (maybe only the movie is classic😁). My eyes landed on this. Lightbulb. Plus my 11 year old daughter wants to read it. She's developing a taste for classic literature.(She loved P&P). Here's to having the book pick you to read it.
pickGreat book! Definitely an early work of his, not quite into his stride on writing style/story cadence as some of his later works like Jurassic park, but very interesting and a quick read. Professionals diver gets hired by seedy group to recover articles from sunken boat...and gets tangled in their web. 8/10 would recommend
A diver is hired to investigate a suspicious boat accident, but when he leaves one day earlier than expected to investigate the area, he finds the boat is still afloat. It begs the question: is this a case of insurance fraud, or is it deeper than that? Just what, exactly, has he gotten himself into? Great so far!
I did not realize we got to Opar so early in the series!
Tarzan soothes a broken heart by… becoming a French spy? Lots of fun when ERB isn‘t being racist.

62 out of 100, way more than all my previous ones. So many of my favorite movies are on this list, too many to choose just three. I also see they've stretched the definition of "thriller" to the breaking point. So in that spirit, here are my top 3 movies that are absolutely NOT thrillers:
? Titanic
? The Wizard of Oz
? E.T.

pickI liked this one! It did some pretty unique things for the genre.
pick"Crucifixus Etiam" by Walter M. Miller Jr is the final story, and a case of leaving the best until last.
Manue Nanti is a Peruvian manual worker in a work team terraforming Mars. His high-altitude physiology needs less expensive support to breathe the thin Martian atmosphere, but this results in irreversible biological changes that make a return to earth at the expiry of his five year contract unlikely.
