Don't we all live there?

The city of the lost. That is the nickname for the undersea village of Mahri Nui, where the inhabitants live by a thread, in fear and desperation, with no hope of ever reaching the surface. But don't we all, really live there? Like most of the matoran, we have memories of a life above, a life with purpose, but now all we feel is the need to survive. However, most of us aren't willing to venture to the mysterious depths of the world beyond, and are content to live in a state of security and fear, rather than uncover the truth of our shadowy oppressors. Filled with mythological themes and truths, the Bionicle stories are great inspiration for kids, and contain principles and truths that have been lost to our world.

good book

City of the Lost had a good plot. The story moved a little too slowly, though. I liked the open ending of this book. It makes me want to look for the next book!
