The Adventures of Hotsy Totsy, Clive Cussler’s rollicking sequel to The Adventures of Vin Fiz (2006), has just been released. Signed editions and exclusive signed limited editions of The Adventures of Hotsy Totsy are available at VJ Books (http://www.vjbooks.com).
In The Adventures of Hotsy Totsy (May 2010: Penguin), Casey and Lacey Nicefolk are two regular, all-American brother-and-sister twins who have a secret. In their barn there is a mysterious widget that can turn any small object into a life-size replica.
Since their parents are out-of-town, the twins decide to have some fun and create a real working powerboat using a model boat and their newly found gizmo. Casey and Lacey take their new powerboat and enter a race up the Sacramento River. But during the race, they find that their powerboat is no ordinary boat and that the race is no ordinary race. This is a romping adventure where being the first to cross the finish line is not the only prize.

(Publisher’s Weekly, Sept. 22)
Dirk imagine the U.S. and Canada on the brink of war in their third collaborative Dirk Pitt novel (after Treasure of Khan and Black Wind). In 2011, as the price of gas hits $10 a gallon, President Garner Ward must contend with a corrupt Canadian cabal that’s subverting efforts to solve America’s energy problems. Pitt barely escapes serious injury when a bomb destroys a D.C. lab along with records of research into an artificial photosynthesis process that could, almost immediately, eliminate the threat of global warming. That discovery may be connected with a legendary failed 19th-century sailing expedition to the Arctic as well as a series of deaths due to the phenomena that the Native Americans of British Columbia know as “the Devil’s Breath.” The Cusslers won’t suspend many readers’ disbelief, but thriller fans in search of a quick, exciting read should be satisfied. 750,000 printing, (November 2008)
