What is the author's style in Cyclops by Clive Cussler?

The language of Cyclops depends very much on who is speaking. When it is an American, the language is clearly American. The nature of Americans is one of independence, and this is demonstrated throughout the story when individuals are given a task and often they do not obey. For example, when the moon colony is warned of a possible Russian invasion and that they should prepare for battle, the colonists are unwilling to shoot unarmed scientists. Then, when the danger becomes more clear and urgent, the President asks them to just give up the colony and avoid bloodshed. Again, the colonists ignore the request.
