New Release



Mayan SecretsOn Sale September 3

THE MAYAN SECRETS
A Fargo Adventure

by Clive Cussler and Thomas Perry

The outstanding new novel from the #1 New York Times-bestselling grand master of adventure.

Husband-and-wife team Sam and Remi Fargo are in Mexico, when they come upon a remarkable discovery—the skeleton of a man clutching an ancient sealed pot, and within the pot, a Mayan book, larger than anyone has ever seen. The book contains astonishing information about the Mayans, about their cities, and about mankind itself. The secrets are so powerful that some people would do anything to possess them—as the Fargos are about to find out.

Before their adventure is done, many men and women will die for that book—and Sam and Remi may just be among them.

Advance Reading Copies (ARCs)

The  Mediterranean Caper (ARC)


A new addition to my collection, is the Advance Reading Copies (ARCs) of Clive’s books, is the one for the 40th anniversary edition of "The Mediterranean Caper".  Released this July as a Putnam hardcover, The  Mediterranean Caper, this was Clive’s first published book and it appears that an ARC was not done not for the Pyramid paperback version forty years ago. As a  result, having an ARC of Clive’s debut book in a collection can be a new cornerstone. Plus, unlike other ARCs produced for Clive’s newly-released  books, there were only around 50 or so made for The Mediterranean Caper, an exceedingly small print run for this type of edition, which will make this very rare. The ARC for the 40th  anniversary edition does include a new Foreword, penned by Clive,
