About this listen

The unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Clive Cussler and Jack du Brul's Skeleton Coast, the debut title in the ever-popular Oregon Files novels. Read by the award-winning narrator Scott Brick.

1896: Four Englishmen flee for their lives across the merciless Kalahari Desert, carrying a stolen fortune in raw diamonds, and hunted by a fierce African tribe. The thieves manage to reach the waiting HMS Rove - only to die with their pursuers in a vicious storm that buries them all under tons of sand...

The present day: Juan Cabrillo and the crew of the covert combat ship Oregon have barely escaped a mission on the Congo River when they intercept a mayday from a defenceless boat under fire off the African coast. Cabrillo takes action, saving the beautiful Sloane Macintyre - who's looking for a long-submerged ship that may hold a fortune in diamonds. But what surprises Cabrillo is her story about a crazy fisherman who claims to have been attacked in the same area on the open sea by giant metal snakes. What begins as a snake hunt leads Cabrillo on to the trail of a far more lethal quarry - a deranged militant and his followers who plan to unleash the devastating power of nature itself against all who oppose them. In his latest bestseller, Clive Cussler, the Grandmaster of Adventure, shows once again that when it comes to compelling action, he's the man to beat.

Brilliant

Jack du Brul and Clive Cussler, another great story from the Oregon files.

The description of the places, characters and the written detail makes these books intriguing and absorbing. Scott Brick as always brings life to the story. I have really enjoyed this book and would recommend it.

Another GREAT story from Clive

An fresh and inventive story that, like so many of Clive Cussler’s books, weave an unpredictable course that keeps you hooked and guessing right to the end. Superb!

Standard Cussler

I have an odd relation with Cussler books. I enjoy about 75% of the story but it does drag on. This was very enjoyable but it feels like it stops and starts, especially near the end, where it feels like it could have concluded in many places but seemed to labour on. I love the Corsair files but this one lacked that cohesion in comparison to others. It felt more focused on their "mercenary status" rather than the corporation vibe. The story itself is fun and has plenty of twists and turns and a satisfactory twist with suitable gravitas...but...it would have benefited with less...a more condensed and concentrated story

Weak Ending

Very promising story that builds up to a dramatically weak finale. It’s as if Cussler lost interest.
