Treasure of Khan (Book #19 in Series of 21) The majority of Clive's adventure novels are part of multi-book series. Even though Pacific Vortex was published later in 1983, it is considered the 1st to be read chronologically in the series; though not required. We believe you will find the novels a great summer reading escape and an everyday, anyday adventure.
Genghis Khan the greatest conqueror of all time, who at his peak ruled an empire four times the size of Alexander the Great's, a vast expanse which stretched from the Pacific Ocean to the Caspian Sea.
And now somebody wants it back.
Dirk Pitt and the NUMA crew are about to come head to head with their most dangerous ever enemy. A mysterious Mongolian mogul harbors a dream of restoring the conquests of ancient Mongolia. He holds a dark secret about Genghis Khan, his grandson Kublai Khan and the treasures of Xanadu - treasures of gold, yes, but also much, much more. His relentless pursuit of them will cause devastation to millions unless Dirk Pitt can somehow find a way to stop him.
Dirk Pitt is the ultimate man of action: always ready for any challenge,
always prepared to pit quick wits and brawn against an intractable
problem.
Ex-US Air force, he is cool, courageous and resourceful, which
is why he works for the US National Underwater and Marine Agency (NUMA)
- the undersea counterpart to NASA. In service of NUMA Pitt travels
across the globe - and wherever he goes, action and adventure are sure
to follow...
