The Atlantis Revelation caps a very entertaining trilogy I was already a fan of Thomas' previous two books, 'Raising Atlantis' & 'The Atlantis Prophecy' - both of those were rollicking fun, totally entertaining, and a great way to escape on intriguing adventures for a few reading hours. I am happy to say that 'The Atlantis Revelation' is a worthy successor in the Atlantis trilogy. It is smart, well-researched, has loads of action, and presents fascinating concepts that kept me interested the whole way through. It takes the reader on a whirlwind journey to interesting places - from Corfu & the Calypso Deep to Azerbaijan to Rhodes to Jerusalem and more. Mr. Greanias is a talented thriller author who never disappoints. His characters are well-fleshed out & jump off the page with life. His storytelling skills are solid. I have read thrillers and adventure novels where authors got so engrossed in the details of place and technology that they let the story drop, drag, and sometimes nearly evaporate. A thriller needs to be fast-paced with enough detail to make the setting come alive for the reader, but always keeping the story strong and at the forefront of the reader's attention. Thomas strikes that balance perfectly. You can rest assured when you pick up any of the books in the Atlantis trilogy that you will be turning pages super fast. Great entertainment, highly recommended! Rai Aren, co-author of Secret of the Sands aucune critique | ajouter une critique

From the New York Times bestselling author of Raising Atlantis and The Atlantis Prophecy comes an explosive new international thriller jam-packed with political and prophetic intrigue. Beneath the city of God, A centuries-old secret awaits. And every power on earth wants it. The adventure begins with the wreckage of a sunken Nazi submarine and a shocking legacy of Hitler's quest for Atlantis. Archaeologist Conrad Yeats discovers in the ruins of the Third Reich the key to an ancient conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of every major government. Suddenly Yeats is plunged into a deadly race across the Mediterranean, hunted by the assassins of an international organization that will stop at nothing to ignite global Armageddon and revive an empire. And only Serena Serghetti, the beautiful Vatican linguist he loved and lost, can help him save the world from the Atlantis Revelation. Praised by the biggest names in thrillers, The Atlantis Revelation is an unforgettable blockbuster. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Whilst we do get some more exposure of Wanda of Atlantis Prophecy it's rather brief and more of a side note which is disappointing as it seemed like there was more her character could have added to the atmosphere. The whole plot itself though, other than involving the globes found in Prophecy seems almost like a side note to the events in the first 2 books. The mysterious Alignment seem to have gone from wanting to rule the world to a bit of war profiteering and an overly complicated Bond-esque villain plans.
The flow of the novel also seems a little disjointed at times with some rather abrupt transitions between chapters. It's almost as if Greanias had run out of steam but had committed to a three book deal with his publisher so had no choice but to squeeze out this average piece of literature - now that's not to say it's terrible, if you look at it on it's own it's got quite a bit of action and adventure which could keep your attention on a long trip yet compared to the earlier 2 books it pales in comparison. Which is sad considering the directions the trilogy could have gone, but didn't. ( )
