Atlantis: Libri GmbH Atlantis Paperback 310 pagina's

Four thousand years before the modern world learns to fear the deep, a golden-spired city of nine rings stands at the center of everything - until a Council's caution runs out of time.Kallis Endrian is a shipwright's apprentice with no reason to doubt his city will outlast him. Nyra Thessaly is a Crown heir learning, evening by evening at a quiet shrine, that the old warnings might be truer than the marble halls admit. And Ossian Kade is the one priest willing to say, again and again, that the machine beneath the Archon's Hall is asking for more than anyone understands - until an Archon he trusted decides caution has cost the city enough, and reaches for mastery instead.What follows is not myth. It's four years of reasonable people making reasonable choices, each one a little too late, a little too generous, a little too certain - until the sea draws back from a harbor that has never once, in four thousand years, needed to fear it.Atlantis Prime does not fall in a single night. It falls in eleven hours, ring by ring, while its people scatter to every corner of the ancient world, carrying fragments of a truth none of them will live to fully understand.Four thousand years later, a marine engineer's routine survey turns up something that shouldn't exist at 3,800 meters - and nine unsuspecting families, from a Mediterranean lullaby to a locked island chamber, are about to learn that the story they were told was never just a story.
