Helpful Score: 2

This is a very suspenseful--not to mention terrifying--story of what might take place worldwide if the lost city of Atlantis were to be found; the consequences, one might say, of decoding the language of that civilization so that humans may enter Atlantis. Whether one believes that there ever actually was a city called Atlantis or not, it is quite easy to suspend any skepticism the further one goes into the story. By the last chapter, I was in a small panic to find out what would take place with the hapless scientists who in fact *did* crack the code. It was a great surprise, and certainly not a pleasant one in any way. Definitely not a "and they lived happily ever after" ending, but one that fit the story in a most decisively solid way.
