A rich, simmering blend of my favorite things

Poseidon’s Arrow

Here goes. This is my last post before Christmas. I’m taking the holidays to just relax with friends and family. I know! That’s crazy. I should be talking about peppermint and chocolate and roasts and casseroles and all those things, but I think if you look, you’ll find all the recipes you need this holiday season in the archives.

Instead, I’m going to talk about something that is very important to me for travel, plane books. What is a plane book? I know you are dying to know. A plane book is much like a beach book. It is not classic literature. It is something that is fun, exciting, and doesn’t require copious amounts of concentration, because you might be reading it in a small, cramped space at any time of day or night. A plane  book is a distraction. A way to disappear for awhile. A way to ignore the big, weird smelling guy that is taking up all of your armrest and keeps stepping on your purse.

Over the last year or two, Clive Cussler has become my favorite plane book author. I hope that he would not take offense to such a classification, as I have a great need and appreciation for plane books. I’ve read 3 or 4 of his books now and they are all very fun. They are spy movies on paper. In this particular one, there were car chases, boat chases, shootouts, kidnappings, explosions, as well as lost WW2 ships and pirates. 50a5730f19061.preview-620That’s not to say that it is all silly action. Poseidon’s Arrow was full of spies, intrigue, secret government projects and more. It is smart action writing. Did you see the movie Sahara? It was based on a Cussler novel. The writers know what they are talking about when it comes to underwater exploration and ship recovery. It is an interesting insight into that world in the mix of lots of good action fun. I would recommend this book. I am recommending it. It is a global conspiracy that Dirk Pitt has to shut down and he will do it, even if he has to blow up the Panama Canal in the process.

So, instead of recipes or gift ideas, I’m giving you a plane book for your holidays. I hope you enjoy it.

Merry Christmas. It has been a great year. Enjoy the holidays with your loved ones.
