Powers of light and darkness vie for supremacy in a world of ancient splendor. A wounded Atlantean prince washed up on a foreign shore becomes the focal point in an epic battle between good and evil when the full extent of his powers becomes known. At one corner are the Priests of the White Robe, guardians of powerful natural forces which could threaten the world if misused; on the other side are the Black Robes, priests who seek to master these forces for their own benefit.

Ho faticato moltissimo a leggerlo. Un po' perché neanche lontanamente vicino a Le Nebbie di Avalon, stilisticamente parlando, un po' perché una volta interrotta la lettura per dare spazio ad un altro romanzo più "veloce",si fatica molto a riprenderlo in mano.
This one goes somewhere between 'it was ok' and 'I liked it'. It was entertainable and didn't take me long to finish. The often terrible dialogues mixed with constant emotional roller coaster rides made it less likeable though. I can't help but remembering the women in this book were either sobbing ...
Although, The Fall of Atlantis has elements of fantasy incorporated into it, the novel is mostly just a romance pretending to be a fantasy. This is a tale of two sisters, Deoris and Domaris, who have taken very different paths, Deoris falling for a dying priest, and Domaris following a priest who is...
