How it all started
The first Cussler book I read, back in 2001 was Atlantis Found. To be honest, I thought the book was about the mysterious Atlantis. At that that time, I was reading all there was about Atlantis, the mystic island of Mur, Maya's, Pyramid's and its assumed link to stellar constellations and the like. I never expected the book to be an adventure book. It turned out to be one of my best misjudgements. Shortly after I bought my second book, Blue Gold, and that was what really got me going.
I use "The Collector's guide to Clive Cussler", "A Bibliography of Clive Cussler" and "The adventure writing of Clive Cussler" by Wayne Valero, and find this an important help in putting my collection together.
Following an invitation from Wayne in August 2002, I decided to join the Clive Cussler Collector’s Society on January 13, 2004. Picture: Bruce Kenfield (left) and Wayne Valero (right) who are the founders of the CCCS
A special thanks to everyone who helps me on my (never ending?) collection journey of Clive Cussler books and related items.
