From the Back Cover
In a frozen Antarctica wasteland, in the depths of the Amazon River, in a chamber beneath the ruins of the Sphinx, something has surfaced: a cluster of crystalline artifacts composed of an energy source unknown to modern science, and inscribed with ancient hieroglyphs. Between them a strange signal courses through the oceans. Where it emanates from is a source that has stunned mankind. The lost city of Atlantis has been found.
It Is The Meaning Of Civilization...
Now, two of the world's most powerful armies stand on the brink of war to gain control of the most powerful force known to modern man. But a group of scientists struggling to decode the message of the primeval network fears that it is already too late.
And Its End...
Solar fires ignite the surface of the earth, and a worldwide cataclysm of Biblical proportions begins. Now as Atlantis rises, so does its secrets-along with a terrifying prophecy that is coming true."
"A rocketing adventure." --The Philadelphia Inquirer
"A genuinely exciting scientific thriller conceived on an epic scale." -Bookseller (UK)
