About this listen

Clive Cussler, author of the bestselling Dirk Pitt series, and his co-author, Graham Brown, send hero Kurt Austin into the heart of the storm in the action-packed NUMA Files series.

A new energy source holds the promise to change the world. If it doesn't kill it first.

It's called zero point energy—a state of energy contained in all matter everywhere, and all but unlimited. Nobody has ever found a way to tap into it, however . . . until one scientist does.

The problem is, his machines also cause great earthquakes, even fissures in tectonic plates. One machine is buried deep underground; the other submerged in a vast ocean trench. If Kurt Austin, Joe Zavala and the rest of the NUMA team aren't able to find and destroy them—and soon—the world will be on the threshold of a new era of catastrophe and unchecked volcanism.

What happened to Max?

Look, I enjoyed the story overall; a great Kurt Austin adventure, with all the standard accoutrements one would expect, but with one major exception: What's happened to Max? Hiram Yaeger's snarky AI had become a loved character in her own right, especially during the events in Desolation Code, and now, she's just... not a thing? The computer is now just 'computer', with a weird Minority Report-esque interface? I'm really disappointed. This seems like such a step back, even with Dirk acting odd about interfacing with a machine, that it popped me right out of the story. Odd decision, and not one I'm a fan of.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
