Book Description

April 15, 2008
An ancient organization more powerful than the federal government has targeted Washington. They'll stop at nothing to destroy the republic and raise an empire.

The adventure begins with a mysterious military burial at Arlington National Cemetery and a shocking legacy that has explosive implications for America's existence. Archaeologist Conrad Yeats discovers in his father's tombstone the key to a centuries-old warning built into the very design of Washington, D.C. Major monuments along the National Mall are astronomically aligned and are about to "lock" with the stars at a date foreseen by the Founding Fathers. Along with Serena Serghetti, a beautiful Vatican linguist with secrets of her own, Yeats explores the hidden world beneath the capital in a deadly race to save it. America has a date with destiny, and the fate of the world hangs in the balance.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

After astro-archeologist Conrad Yeats and Vatican linguist Sister Serena Serghetti survived a disastrous Antarctic expedition in Raising Atlantis, Conrad falls on lean times: his reality TV show, Ancient Riddles, is canceled, and he buries his USAF general father at Arlington National Cemetery. Serena interprets Conrad's father's oddly sculpted tombstone to contain a cryptic message. Intrigued, Conrad investigates and discovers George Washington entrusted a treaty sealed in a celestial globe to the care of one of Conrad's ancestors—but Conrad is not the only one looking for it. And when, according to the Atlantis prophecy, the stars' align on July 4, 2008, with Washington, D.C., monuments, his sinister rivals' new world order will begin clicking into place, if they manage to get hold of the globe. Greanias keeps the pace breakneck and the coincidences amazing, sweeping readers right into Conrad's struggle. (Apr.)

More About the Author

Thomas Greanias is the founder of The Atlantis Mapping Project and is the New York Times bestselling author of seven novels: RAISING ATLANTIS, THE ATLANTIS PROPHECY, THE ATLANTIS REVELATION, THE WAR CLOUD, THE PROMISED WAR, THE 34TH DEGREE and, coming soon, DOMINUS DEI.

The pioneer in eBook adventure, Thomas Greanias was the first major novelist to break out on the Web with RAISING ATLANTIS, a No. 1 bestselling eBook on Amazon and audiobook on Audible and iTunes. His sequels and subsequent novels in print have landed him on the New York Times, USA Today and Publishers Weekly bestseller lists, and his books have been translated into a dozen languages and sold in 75 countries.

His writing has won the raves of critics and his peers, leading No. 1 New York Times bestselling author Brad Thor to declare that "Thomas Greanias is the king of high-octane adventure."

THE ATLANTIS MAPPING PROJECT

If you are looking for Atlantis underwater, look everywhere else in books, movies and TV. But don't look to the seminal Atlantis novels of Thomas Greanias. Acknowledged as the only true evolution of the Atlantis mythology in more than 2,500 years, the blockbuster series leaps from a lost continent in RAISING ATLANTIS to a centuries-old global conspiracy in THE ATLANTIS PROPHECY and beyond in the ongoing adventures of The Atlantis Mapping Project.

Astro-archaeologist Conrad Yeats is no Indiana Jones. He doesn't care if an artifact belongs in a museum or not. The post-modern adventurer believes it's the information that an artifact or ancient monument reveals about its builders that is more important than the site itself. And he can read the stars like a map to lead him to sites that even the most advanced satellites miss.

Opposing him as much as helping him is the love of his life and rival, Serena Serghetti. The beautiful Vatican linguist can decipher the language of Nature and angels. Dubbed by the media as "Mother Earth" for her environmental extremism, she lives to preserve the very things--including her faith--that the only man she's ever loved seems all too willing to sacrifice in his never-ending quest to discover the secret origins of humanity and his own life.

WHAT IF THERE REALLY WAS AN ATLANTIS--THE ONE PLATO DESCRIBED AND NOT THE ONE OF HOLLYWOOD IMAGINATION?

WHAT IF THERE WERE SURVIVORS--AND THEIR DESCENDANTS LIVE AMONG US, INVISIBLE SAVE FOR RECESSIVE DNA?

WHAT IF THIS "ALIGNMENT" IS STEERING THE COURSE OF HUMAN HISTORY TO RE-ESTABLISH A MASTER CIVILIZATION?

AND WHAT IF YOU WERE ONE OF THE "THEM"--AND THE ONLY PERSON ON EARTH WHO CAN STOP THEM?

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy it for a second!, August 3, 2008
This review is from: The Atlantis Prophecy (Mass Market Paperback)
When you read the review above and on the first few pages of the book itself - how could any thriller reader not want to read it?
"A thrill ride from start to finish."
-- Clive Cussler

"...one of those books you end up staying up way too late reading."

-- Sandra Hughes, CBS News

Turns out those blurbs refer to his first book - Raising Atlantis. Too bad I didn't realize that when I was in the store. But judging from the reviews on that one - these lines were over-hype even then.

CONCEPT SUMMARY: Conspiracy begun many years ago when the Free Masons were fighting for the survival of the country blossoms in DC for an clue-breaking astrologer and a crypotographer-nun from the vatican. They try to solve the clues to conspiracy before it's too late - while fighting an evil secret group.

Here's what I didn't like this book:

1. ALL TO FAMILIAR PREMISE AND EXECUTION: Look to the back of the book and you'll find a nice little map of Washington, D.C. - that looks VERY FAMILIAR. Read the equally horrible The Book of Fate or seen the better excuted National Treasure (Widescreen Edition) - than you know this tale. Yes, I knew the premise was familiar. But, I did hope for a fast-paced, original execution with charachters I'd enjoy.

2.LOOKING FOR ANOTHER ENGROSSING PAGE-TURNING THINKING PERSON'S THRILLER - LIKE The Da Vinci Code? YOU WON'T FIND IT HERE. If you're going to step up and copy the Da Vinci Codes pattern - you'd best do it well. Here we have "clue-breaking" experts led on a trail of discovery, ties to the vatican, ties to the free masons... and after the first scene - which also gets expectations high - it's just boring. Despite all the great blurbs - in this one I didn't care enough to even want to think of where the clues might lead.

BOTTOM LINE: Nothing original enough or interesting enough in this book to make it worth the time.

2.0 out of 5 stars Much to improve upon..., July 20, 2008
By 
Robert Goodman "HandyThinker" (Long Branch, New Jersey USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Atlantis Prophecy (Mass Market Paperback)
Although there are several good thematic points made throughout this story, the character development is poor. Plot development is frenetic and incomplete. Sometimes incompleteness is a technique for driving the story, but not so here....too many loose ends and inconsistencies. The author's vanity plays out on the canvas of this "less-than-beach-trash"-quality story and it is found wanting.

That being said, Mr. Greaniasi is imaginative, but needs much more experience in cultivating the writer's art.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better Than The First One, July 8, 2008
By 
Fred Rayworth (Las Vegas, NV United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Atlantis Prophecy (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was such a pleasure to read after slogging through The Ruins, I'm almost biased a little toward a better review than if I'd read this one after a different book. Still, it had me glued to my chair.

In the first one, I liked his Antarctica story and though the hero, Yates, was a little whiny, it wasn't enough to sway me from reading this sequel.

Though there are a few plot holes and some gaps in logic and sequence, I don't care. I had such fun reading it that that stuff didn't matter. Besides, it is well written, follows the current rules of writing, and the editing is almost top notch (found at least one typo but can't remember where).

Some are complaining because it's a mix of DaVinci Code and National Treasure. So what? Is it any different from all the murder mysteries out there? Geez! How many ways can you kill someone? It's the story itself and the characters that make or break it.

Is this book realistic? Heck no! Could it happen? Doubt it. Does it matter to me? No. It was a fun ride and left me wanting more.

Just one note. I'll be pissed if he doesn't finally get the girl in the third book!

If you want a good fast paced read, I highly recommend this one.
