Kevin Emerson’s Lost Code is Book One of the Atlanteans series. This was originally published in May2012 by HarperCollins Children’s Books. This book took me forever to actually finish and it’s not because it was boring or bad really it was because I had no urge to read anything as well as no free time to do so. No fault to the book it was just a case of being picked up at the wrong time. In the end it might have taken me over 2 weeks to finish this book but it was worth the read. I have always liked reading about Atlantis (I have about 5 novels about Atlantis sitting on my shelf right now) so when I saw that this book was coming out I knew that I had to read it. I liked that the story takes place at a summer camp under a large dome. Since the earth is basically inhabitable in many places they created these locations to simulate what life was life before the ‘Great Rise’ I was intrigued from the very beginning. There are some slow spots in the story but all in all I think it’s a fun summer read that is full of mystery and excitement.I liked the main character Owen, he felt genuine and I rooted for him the entire time. I think that boys and girls alike will like the story, and become as fascinated by Atlantis as I am. I have questions I want answered like what is going to happen next? Who is the third Atlantean and Will Owen’s family come into play in the future? I think I will read the second book to find out, but I will probably rent it from the library instead of buying it.
