This review is from: Assault on Atlantis (Paperback)

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.

This review is from: Assault on Atlantis (Kindle Edition)

The first four books occur in one timeline primarily and are focused on a single threat being made to the world and how to defend against it. These books are probably the easiest to follow and really build up the characters.

The last two books deal with how to defeat the threat being made. These books have two or even three stories going at once and are a bit confusing at times. I think the biggest issues is that sometimes the concurrent stories are given to much precedence in comparison with the main story. There is great detail given to some aspect of these stories that could be better used progressing the main story line.

I found the ending to the entire conflict to be a little short. It's pretty clear what happens to most of the main characters but nothing is really mentioned about the conflict as a whole other than it is finished.

The series as a whole is quite interesting though. There wasn't as much in respect to Atlantis as I figured there would be when I started the series but it still works. If you like a story that takes place over different times, deals with places like the Bermuda Triangle and the Nazca Lines, and maybe even takes you to other worlds then this is a series that would probably interest you.
