The Atlantis Code
by Charles BrokawReview by Linda Marie Schumacher Forge Books Hardcover ISBN/ITEM#: 9780765315311 Date: 10 November 2009 List Price $25.99 Amazon US / Amazon UK / Show Article / The Atlantis Code, by Charles Brokaw, is a cross between Indiana Jones and the Da Vinci Code. Handsome Professor Thomas Lourds attempts to decipher an ancient language on some artifacts and ends up running for his life from a group of assassins who are tied to a secret society of the Catholic Church. It's non-stop action and a great read. From official release/information: Product 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.(Source: Forge Books)
