description: <b>Loretta Bush</b>. <i><span>4 out of 5 stars</span></i><span>. </span>20th<span> </span>October2016<br />I won this book through Goodreads, and that's exactly what it was!! Reallyenjoyed it. Wish that there really was a Charles Langham with all his whizzbang toys to help save the world from the environmental disaster we seem to beheaded for. Kept me really engrossed, and looking forward to the nextinstallment.<br /><br /><i><span>5.0 out of 5 stars</span></i><span></span><span> Amazing. By <span>Jennifer Moville</span><span> </span>on October 12, 2016<br />This is a book I found filled with intrigue, mystery, danger and suspensewhilst having a very important message linked into the book.<br />Charles Langham lives on a yacht. He is mega rich but isn't selfish with hiswealth giving lots to environmental causes.<br />Charles tells the UN of his findings with endangered animals and marine lifeand deforestation but the UN fail to listen. He threatens the UN that if theydon't act then he will but they retaliate by sending out a US ship to attackhis yacht. Charles threatens to create two tsunamis on the US but he is now ona hitlist and has to take action before the men sent to kill him can completetheir mission. He has to show the world that climate change is important and isimportant NOW. The author sets the scene well and although this is a novel Ifound he carries the topic of climate change very well as it is all toorelevant in this day and age. I found this to be a really good novel and theauthor makes you think about the impact we all have on the world today</span><br /><br /><b>Rachel Sanders</b> <span>4 stars of or 5. </span><span></span>30 March 2015<br />I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.<br />This book was great! a nice quick read which didn't require too much brain power but still managed to convey complex scientific ideas. I thought the main characters were well developed however there was quite an extensive cast of people that were coming and going so at times it was hard to keep track.<br />The plot follows Charles Langham who with his family owns a large technology company which have made ground breaking advances and are putting them to use trying to make an impact on earth's environmental problems such as global warming and Mass extinctions. To do this the governments of the world must be on board, but the American president who is in the midst of some serious psychological problems will not budge and makes an enemy of Langham.<br /><br />Overall I thought this book was Clive Cussler-esque which is a great accomplishment! I'm looking forward to reading more in the Charles Langham series and would recommend it to anyone who loves adventure/action novels containing cutting-edge technology.<br /><br /><b>Amy Rivers</b> <i><span>4 out of 5stars </span>24th August 2016</i>I really enjoyed the concept in The Pacific Affair. Given the state of the environment and the seeming inability of the world's governments to tackle the issues in a timely manner, I thought the story was intriguing. I loved that the whole Langham family was involved in the story, and that Charles built an organization where so many people were able to dedicate themselves to the cause. The writing was a little stiff and while the tale is suspenseful, it was hard, at times, to believe Charles Langham's luck in always staying a step ahead of the forces working against him. I greatly appreciated the discussion about man's role in both harming and also helping to save the earth. It's great food for thought. And the attention to detail, whether in descriptions of the amazing vehicles involved in the story or the political entities involved made the whole story more believable.<br /><br /><br /><b>Owen Clough.</b><i> I give The Pacific Affair 5 star rating</i> I just finished The Pacific Affair by Gary Paul Stephenson. It turns out more than I thought it would be. So many twists and turns and Gary Paul Stephenson has a good handle on the environment we are in the process of loosening if we as a World don't get our act together. I enjoyed the technology he incorporated into the story making is seem entirely feasible. The plot moved along, and I could not put the book down. Well done Gary Paul Stephenson, I'll be looking forward to the next one in the series.<br /><br />
