Assault on Atlantis

By Greg Donegan and Bob Mayer

Book Overview

When the ozone layer vanishes and radiation spreads across the globe, former Special Forces soldier Eric Dane must travel through parallel worlds and across time to save humanity from extinction.

In the fifth explosive installment of Bob Mayer's Atlantis series, the Shadow has launched its most devastating attack yet-a massive sphere that strips Earth's atmosphere of its protective ozone layer. With humanity facing annihilation within months, Dane discovers that the only hope lies in mastering the enemy's own technology and stealing ozone from a parallel world.

But the path to salvation winds through the Space Between, where portals connect not just parallel Earths but different points in history. Dane must navigate encounters with:

Amelia Earhart, trapped in a dimensional nexus and aided by the mysterious Ones BeforeCrazy Horse and Mitch Bouyer, half-brothers born of prophecy who meet at the Battle of the Little BighornRobert Frost, whose visions aboard the USS Nautilus at the North Pole may hold the key to everythingThe crystal skulls-ancient artifacts of power that can channel desperate human emotion into weapons against the Shadow

As Dane races against time, he uncovers the truth about Atlantis's final stand 12,000 years ago, when High Defender Pri Tor sacrificed everything to hold back the Shadow's darkness. Now history threatens to repeat itself, and Dane must assemble warriors across time and worlds for a final confrontation.

From the frozen Arctic to the burning Australian Outback, from 19th century battles to far-future dystopias, ASSAULT ON ATLANTIS weaves together multiple timelines in a mind-bending thriller where past, present, and future collide. Mayer masterfully blends military action, time travel, alternate history, and ancient mysteries into a page-turning adventure that spans the multiverse.

Perfect for fans of Michael Crichton, James Rollins, and Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child who crave intelligent techno-thrillers with historical depth and cosmic stakes.

Our Last Stand?

Assault On Atlantis is the fifth book in the series and it is just as good as the first four. Millions are dead and still could die as radioactive gas moves across Russia, towards Europe, while a huge hole in the ozone layer is getting bigger and bigger. Dane has to find a way to repair the atmosphere and he has to do it with Shadow technology. Otherwise his Earth, a long with others, will fall to the Shadows. Can our Earth survive with help from the past? Or will we get help from another Earth which is already doomed but wishes to lash back at the enemy? Amelia Earhart, Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Robert Frost and George Armstrong Custer will all have their parts to play in this struggle.

a bit weaker than the other novels

We have all been waiting for this novel to be launched. And it proves to be a novel that again shows Bob Meyer's tremendous writing skills, his expertise in creating suspense, and his careful historic research. All this combined results in another great book in the series. The best is the Custer-plot. It is really convincing and exciting. But I think the Earhart/Dane plot is just a little bit slow this time and cannot catch up with the story of Custer's defeat. But go ahead and read this book. It is very good. But make sure you have read the other novels of the series first.

To people who have been reading the Atlantis books, you will love them, but if you have not read any of them before read them before reading this one. It is well forth reading them in order, Can't wait for the last one to come out!!
