Spell binding diving thriller
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
As a Clive Cussler/ Dirk Pitt fan, I gladly welcome Tiller Galloway to my library. I couldn't put this book down (and donated it to the dive shop in Truk). This is a must read, action thriller. I am not a cave diver, so I can't judge how "hokie" some of it may be. Definitely a fun read!StrongDiver
Outstanding!

First Poyer book I read and it was excellent. The cave diving parts were so realistic as to be frightening. I'm hooked! Excellent read for divers and/or cavers!
The Best of the "Tiller Thrillers"!!!!

I just finished reading David Poyer's DOWN TO A SUNLESS SEA and it is no doubt the best book Poyer has written featuring his hard luck hero, Lyle "Tiller" Galloway. I'd even have to say it's the best book I've read this year!After reading the previous "Tiller Thrillers" (Hatteras Blue, Bahamas Blue, and Louisiana Blue) I was eager to dive in and read "DOWN TO A SUNLESS SEA" and see if Tiller still had a knack for finding trouble. Poyer didn't disappoint me. This book is an excellent read for divers and non-divers alike! I sure hope that Galloway licks his wounds, and gets over the bends so he can make an appearance in another Tiller Thriller real soon!
Plan on staying up late, a page turner

Being a diver I picked this book up on a whim. It promptly consumed all my free time. Excellent dive scene descriptions will get even an accomplished diver's pulse up. Now I have to have the other Tiller Galloway books. Diver or not, BUY THIS ONE!
Greatest diving thriller ever written in English.

Poyer's latest is a thriller about cave diving in the honeycombed caverns of the Florida aquifer. The underwater scenes are so vivid, you feel the claustrophobia of a diver wedged into rock a mile under the ground. Tiller Galoway, the main character, is an ex-con trying hard to go straight. He's just flawed enough to be both interesting and believable. Poyer throws in a corrupt land conservation group and a hot romance but the graphic descriptions of this dangerous sport leave you short of breath, and with bleeding knuckles. Diver or not, don't miss this one.
