About this listen
An ancient cargo long thought lost is found. With terrible consequences . . .
Dirk Pitt is surveying in the Middle East when a stroke of luck reveals an Ottoman wreck with a very curious cargo. While investigating the find, he foils a night raid on Istanbul's Topkapi Palace Museum. This puts Pitt at the centre of a race to acquire a series of legendary artefacts.
Meanwhile, the region is being pushed to the brink of war by a series of explosions across Turkey and Egypt. Finding that his search for the artefacts is linked to the attacks, Pitt must prevent a deranged brother and sister's fanatical plans succeeding...
Packed with breathtaking suspense and fired by an extraordinary imagination, Crescent Dawn is a barnstorming listen starring Dirk Pitt for all fans of action, suspense and intrigue.

Pitt family at their best!
I thoroughly enjoy the escapism of the Pitt novels. I'm never disappointed with the complex storylines, and am enamoured with the tongue-in-cheek humour. In this audible version Scott Brick is a marvellous story-teller with an immense talent for characterisation. It certainly reduces the boredom of long-haul flights!

Not one of his best
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
This was a take it or leave it listen, didn't have any problem stopping the story and walking away. Having read the book I could follow the jumps backward and forward in the plot, but it was sometimes hard to follow which Dirk we were talking about.
What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?
I always enjoy stories relating to places I've been to, so that was interesting. Some of the descriptions of kit and boats felt a bit like padding.
What three words best describe Scott Brick’s voice?
Clear, relaxed
Did Crescent Dawn inspire you to do anything?
Shan't be buying any more audio from this author, though I'm still a fan of his books

Thrilling main background story
The balance of the villain and the hero was a little bit unbalanced, but it holds up and its a normal Dirk story which I've always enjoyed.

Okay but...
It's not a bad story but does lapse into some pretty juvenile conceits At times. In case either the author or narrator stoop to read these reviews, here are a couple of messages:
Mr Cussler - everyone in England does not speak as though they have just stepped out of a Victorian period drama.
Mr Brick - please try and learn some regional English accents as neither posh with an American twang, nor Bert from Mary Poppins currently feature among them.
