Helpful Score: 2
I was expecting something between Indiana Jones and the daVinci Code when I bought this book. I was sorely disappointed. The hero is a James Bond type archeologist, and of course an expert in everything. The story is bogged down by countless technical details about weaponry and gadgets, balanced by cliched characters: the loyal-to-the-death friends, the damsel-in-distress, the plain and, of course, traitorous woman, the evil muslim warlord. Oh, and of course, Atlantis is destroyed in the end.
I was ready to stop reading this book midway through, but finished it out of morbid curiosity, and because, out of principle, I don't like not finishing a book.
