Wonderful story

What a great story. Obviously well researched and extremely well presented. I stayed up all night reading this I was so captivated.Buyer beware, this is not a "true story" as the title states (although after reading you're sure to be convinced otherwise). The is a fantastic piece of fiction heavily rooted in fact.I absolutely encourage you to pick this up, you won't be disappointed.

Atlantis Lives

It was a joy to read this book. Well researched and with beautiful illustrations the book caught my imagination. It doesn't matter whether you are a believer or not... The book is interesting to all. It can be read as fiction - or as a pertinent theory on Atlantis. It doesn't hurt that with the new Disney movie coming up - it gives me some information to share with my kids when the questions on Atlantis come up.

A perception of Atlantis

I truly enjoyed this book. Robert Sullivan provided wonderful photos and historical knowledge of Atlantis in the form of a journal/story. There are questions left unanswered as well as interesting data presented. To believe it is another question. Objectively, I would like to research it myself as many others are probably doing. I enjoyed reading the book because of my interest in Atlantis and the mystery connections. It reads like a pleasant science fiction story with perhaps some truth to it. The book was appealing because it was presented well artistically and it caught my eye. Reading was also a pleasure well suited to someone with a general interest in Atlantis.

Made my heart sing!

This book is amazingly informative and a visual delight. The author did an incredible job of researching Atlantis and presenting all the pertinent facts. The drawings and photo layouts further the beauty and information exchange. I recommend this highly book to adults and kids. Enjoy!
