Book Description:
A wounded Atlantean prince...a deadly battle between Dark and Light...and the sisters Deoris and Domaris, whose lives are changed utterly by the magic involving them. These are the elements of "The Fall of Atlantis", Marion Zimmer Bradley's epic fantasy about that ancient and legendary realm.
On one side stand the Priests of the White Robe, guardians of powerful natural forces which could threaten the world if misused. Ranged against them are the Black Robes, sorcerers who secretly practice their dark arts in the labyrinthine caves beneath the very Temple of Light. Caught between are Domaris and Deoris, daughters of the Arch-priest Talannon, trapped in a web of deadly sorcery-the same forbidden sorcery that could bring about the fall of Atlantis.

My first from Marion Zimmer Bradley. I found it to be rather tritely written. One of those books that you read and read and read and it seems to just keep going... but there's nothing really you can put your finger on that you don't like. I even sort of liked the story, it just didn't touch me.

Two sisters, Deoris and Domaris, are caught in the middle of a battle between good and evil. A wounded Atlantean prince washed up on shore becomes the focal point in an epic battle between good and evil when the full extent of his powers becomes known. A classic confrontation between the powers of light and darkness as they vie for supremacy in a world of ancient splendor.

I just couldn't get into it. Which is odd because I have loved all her other books.

This book is a must read for anyone who is a fan of the Mists of Avalon. Although the writing is not very good, in my opinion, you
MUST read it to understand the Mists series. It's a retelling of the Atlantis story -- the ancient people of that land misuse their
powers and finally must leave their ancient home behind. They are the ancestors of the people in the Avalon books.
