No book has ever made my face so sore, from grinning like a cheshire cat literally the entire time :D I read this book super slowly as I was trying to savour each and every second. Every page takes you right back to Atlantis and the world/characters that I adore so much. 

I loved how we were able to experience the story from different perspectives and get a glimpse inside each character, how they were personally feeling and what they were thinking at different times. I especially appreciated the perspective of people like Colonel Sumner, who we lost far too early.

The only thing I can say is I wish it was longer and I double wish that they'd written more of these books!!! Why oh why is there only one :-( I'd give anything for the book version of episodes like 'The Storm' and 'Irresistible'. Please write them! :D
