  • Valhalla Rising was a flag on the Hunter Ocean.
  • Valhalla Rising is a 2009 film (released in the States in 2010), directed by Nicolas Winding Refn, starring Mads Mikkelsen. The film takes place in 1000 AD and follows a Norse warrior named One-Eye and a boy named Are as they travel with a band of Christian Vikings in pursuit of a Crusade. Instead they voyage west to North America. The film was shot entirely in Scotland.
  • In Valhalla Rising, Dirk is faced with the challenge of stopping the evil CEO of an American oil and natural gas company from establishing an absolute monopoly over oil resources and supplies. It features themes typical in a Dirk Pitt novel; a countdown, bribed officials, and ruthless, evil leaders.
  • From the dust jacket, It is July 2003. In the middle of its maiden voyage, the luxury cruise ship Emerald Dolphin suddenly catches fire and sinks. What caused it? Why didn't the alarms go off? What was its connection to the revolutionary new engines powering the ship? NUMA special projects director Dirk Pitt® races to rescue the passengers and investigate the disaster, but he has no idea of the bizarre chain of events that are about to engulf him. Before the next few weeks are over, Pitt will find himself confronted by an extraordinary series of monsters, both human and mechanical, modern and ancient. He will tread upon territory previously known only to legend. And at the end of it all, though many lives will be lost, and many saved, it is Pitt's own life that will be changed forever. . .

abstract
  • Valhalla Rising is a 2009 film (released in the States in 2010), directed by Nicolas Winding Refn, starring Mads Mikkelsen. The film takes place in 1000 AD and follows a Norse warrior named One-Eye and a boy named Are as they travel with a band of Christian Vikings in pursuit of a Crusade. Instead they voyage west to North America. The film was shot entirely in Scotland. Summary: For years, One-Eye, a mute warrior of supernatural strength, has been held prisoner by the chieftain Barde. Aided by a boy, Are, he kills his captor and together they escape, beginning a journey into the heart of darkness. On their flight, One-Eye and Are board a Viking vessel but the ship is soon engulfed by an endless fog that first disintegrates as they sight an unknown land. As the new land reveals its secrets and the Vikings meet a ghastly fate, One-Eye discovers his true self.
  • Valhalla Rising was a flag on the Hunter Ocean.
  • In Valhalla Rising, Dirk is faced with the challenge of stopping the evil CEO of an American oil and natural gas company from establishing an absolute monopoly over oil resources and supplies. It features themes typical in a Dirk Pitt novel; a countdown, bribed officials, and ruthless, evil leaders. Dirk also unravels the work of a brilliant, reclusive scientist who made great advances in oil technology. The scientists was also notable for finding the remnants of a Viking settlement on the Hudson River after tracing their history. Additionally, he discovered the remains of Captain Nemo's submarine, Nautilus, and improved its power system, a "magnetohydrodynamic" engine.
  • From the dust jacket, It is July 2003. In the middle of its maiden voyage, the luxury cruise ship Emerald Dolphin suddenly catches fire and sinks. What caused it? Why didn't the alarms go off? What was its connection to the revolutionary new engines powering the ship? NUMA special projects director Dirk Pitt® races to rescue the passengers and investigate the disaster, but he has no idea of the bizarre chain of events that are about to engulf him. Before the next few weeks are over, Pitt will find himself confronted by an extraordinary series of monsters, both human and mechanical, modern and ancient. He will tread upon territory previously known only to legend. And at the end of it all, though many lives will be lost, and many saved, it is Pitt's own life that will be changed forever. . . . Filled with dazzling suspense and breathtaking action, Valhalla Rising is Cussler at the height of his storytelling powers." In Valhalla Rising, Clive Cussler springs a surprise on his readers in this wild adventure, featuring Dirk Pitt. Clive Cussler's superhero, Dirk Pitt®, as the director of special projects for the National Underwater Maritime Administration (NUMA) is in the vicinity when the world's biggest cruise ship sinks. Pitt stages the rescue of nearly 2,000 passengers. A famous scientist is among those who perish, while Pitt rescues his beautiful daughter. Clive Cussler tangles a story of ancient Viking runes, Captain Nemo's Nautilus, the Red Baron, water propulsion engines, murderous oil magnates, undersea catastrophes and cruise ship explosions into a knot that only Dirk Pitt and his sidekick Al Giordino can unravel.
