I think that it was a bad idea to read two Atlantis books in a row. It was hard to sit back and just read the novel, instead of doing a near-constant compare-contrast of the two stories. First of all, the positives: I thought that the writing was more approachable than _Decipher_'s, perhaps because there wasn't the same scientific base. The characters were also a step above Pavlou's - not a large step, but a step nonetheless. As for the negatives: well, Atlantis here just wasn't that neat... and then the way it ended... also, I really could have done without the whole terrorist plot line - and unfortunately it seems like more energy went into that than Atlantis. Still, it was overall entertaining and it was interesting.
