Publisher Description

A thrill-seeking Harvard linguistics professor and an ultrasecret branch of the Catholic Church go head-to-head in a race to uncover the secrets of the lost city of Atlantis. The ruins of the technologically-advanced, eerily-enigmatic ancient civilization promise their discoverer fame, fortune, and power … but hold earth-shattering secrets about the origin of man.

While world-famous linguist and archaeologist, Thomas Lourds, is shooting a film that dramatizes his flamboyant life and scientific achievements, satellites spot impossibly ancient ruins along the Spanish coast. Lourds knows exactly what it means: the Lost Continent of Atlantis has been found. The race is on, and Lourds’ challengers will do anything to get there first.

Whoever controls the Lost Continent will control the world.

"The book jacket claims "If you liked the DaVinci Code you'll love The Atlantis Code." I'm approximately half way through and I definately agree. This book is awesome. I finished this book and have to say it stayed exciting right to the end. "

— Linda (5 out of 5 stars)

    " I enjoyed this book, though it is not quite Dan Brown or Clive Cussler. Don't get me wrong, this book is well-written in about eveery sense of the word, and the storyline is right up there with the others. The only thing that I found lacking is that the story just didn't "feel" real. But the characterizations, the plot, the story, everything else was excellent. While everything was good, it just felt like he was trying too hard to one-up Dan Brown. He had the Vatican, the rogue cardinal, the few Swiss Guards that followed, and some big historical secret that the church was trying to cover up. I thing I would have enjoyed more if he had just stayed with the modern, toned-down Indiana Jones with a mystery than trying (too hard) to mix that with Robert Langdon. "

    " What a letdown. I had such high hopes for this book, and the promising plot simply gave way to mediocre, one-dimensional characters. How disappointing. Normally I save a reread all my books, but this one's going to Goodwill. "

    " I read this book because I'm on a little bit of an Atlantis kick right now. It wasn't brilliantly written, but it has been compared to The DaVinci Code, so if you enjoyed that book, you'll probably like this one. The adventure is fast-paced, and it was fun to read the puzzle put itself together. It was a very plot-driven novel. I, however, am more of a character person. The main character was very well thought out, but I didn't like either of the female characters. So if you read this, read it for the story, not for the characters. "

About Charles Brokaw

Charles Brokaw is a pseudonym for an author, academic, and college educator living in the Midwest. He’s had a rich and varied life, and is fascinated by history, human accomplishment, and archeology. He began the book The Atlantis Code after seeing an article in a scholarly journal. The piece featured a satellite photo, and pointed out ruins visible in Spain which matched closely the description of Atlantis relayed in the writings of Plato. Because the ruins were located in a famous national park, he was certain they would never be explored. That got him thinking about just what treasures are buried beneath the earth. The result was The Atlantis Code.
