I have to blame my local sport-talk radio station for purchasing Raising Atlantis by Thomas Greanias. It was airing an infomercial on some type of supplement that early morning and - while flipping the dial - came upon an interview with the book's author.But what sounded interesting - and Greanias was talking more about the Atlantis theory with Antartica than the book itself - turned out to be a very weak effort after the discovery of the remains of the lost civilization in the opening pages.There are plenty of one-dimensional characters and a plot that develops on the line of a first-draft for a movie that will have plenty of cash for special effects. And let me stress it reads like a first draft, hardly anywhere near a finished product.Save your money unless you want to read in wonderment how such a book found a publisher.
