Atlanteans
2 Reviews

YA
Atlanteans series.
Owen, his crush Lilly, and bully-turned-ally Leech venture into the parched, plague-stricken landscape beyond protected EdenWest in search of an ancient artifact that can reverse global warming. While the plotting is imaginative, the limp love triangle and muddled world-building sap some of the narrative's tension; the combination of hard science and mystical prophecies may not convince all readers.

YA
Atlanteans series.
In this story set following a global-warming crisis, Owen is selected to attend Camp Eden in one of Earth's four BioDomes. The lies told by the camp's administration along with Owen's physical transformation (he grows gills) set him and his friends on a quest for the truth. Though not a totally successful dystopian story, the novel will still keep many readers intrigued.
