The Tale of Atlantis


The Tale of Atlantis follows Hans Janssen as he reads from an ancient book. The book details the lives of three brothers from the legendary Atlantis. Each brother has taken a separate path, the oldest brother, Darius, has chosen to become a soldier. The middle brother, Noran, has chosen an adventurous, nomadic lifestyle. Lastly, the youngest brother, Lunas, has chosen to go into the family business of trading. Little do they know, their paths are set to converge in a way that will shake Atlantis to its very core. This book is an action packed adventure through the ancient world. 

I found this book compelling and thought provoking. This book is a story about family, friends, love, loss, life, and death. The action scenes were well written and realistic. There are many aspects of this book I find very intriguing. The writer uses clever phrases to describe modern day technology in a way that makes it seems ancient.

I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to those who read fantasy or historical fiction, and to those who are interested in alternative versions of history.
