Prepare to be seduced by the dark legacy of Atlantis.



Check out the runaway classic that's been taking the fantasy romance genre by storm! A mystical masterpiece filled with mystery, passion, darkness and deceit. If you are a fan of myth and magic, this is a MUST READ.

"Mindblowing!"

"A masterwork!"

"Pure genius."

"This book is a work of art!"

Brigitte is an emissary of nature chosen to renew the treaty between Atlantis and the ancient bloodline of Lemuria.Her sacred betrothal would renew the elemental function of the Crystal Grid that powers the ten kingdoms of Atlantis. But her people are attacked by a storm of shadows, and now she is running for her life.

Upon her arrival in the ruling city, she meets D’Vinid, a dejected musician who lives the quintessential Atlantean lifestyle of revelry, escapism and apathy. Under the eclipse of a holy festival, they are swept into an attraction they cannot resist. Their union may protect humanity from its worst enemy - the shadows of Atlantis. But there is one problem, this man is not her betrothed.

Brigitte discovers the Grid is corrupted by psychic parasites that feed off human suffering, an epidemic called “the madness”. The rituals required to charge the Grid with psychic emanations have been poorly attended, and this has caused the Grid to malfunction. But as nature always strives toward balance, the crystals have activated a genetic upgrade among the people. The youth have begun to express supernatural powers. Could it be that D’Vinid and Brigitte are meant to be leaders among the awakened? And if so, why is it impossible for them to be together?

A mysterious tale of romance, seduction and betrayal that reaches just enough into the modern mind to ask - will we learn the lessons of Atlantis?

Mara Powers is a rebel of the written word who has tackled the monumental task of recreating Atlantis. When she was 16 in Fort Collins, Colorado, she began visiting the library in search of things she couldn't learn in school. Her goal was to re-define her religion. She studied theology voraciously until she discovered the concept of reincarnation though Hinduism. It was the answer to a lifelong existential crisis that had plagued her for many sleepless nights. The study of reincarnation led her to the channel Edgar Cayce. In his many books, she found his past life readings of lifetimes spent in Atlantis. This was the beginning of a lifelong quest to unravel the secrets of this mystery. She has spent upwards of 30 years exploring the labyrinth of ancient civilizations. Her decision to turn it all into a high concept, visionary fantasy series stems from her study of the esoteric depiction of Atlantis. With the other half of her research rooted in the secular, it was the best way to illustrate both aspects of this fascinating legend. Her work is the legacy of the legend.

2.0 out of 5 stars Pass on this one.
Reviewed in Canada on May 18, 2021
First, thank you to Mara Powers and Netgalley for the ARC.

I wish I could rate this higher, but it was either boring or confusing. None of the characters seemed to have much personality. I don't like not finishing books, but this one was putting me to sleep, so I had to.

3.0 out of 5 stars Would make a great tv series
Reviewed in Germany on July 3, 2022

I stumbled over this book looking for a novel about Atlantis. To read it was quite difficult for me as the acts are changing very fast, it's as if you are thrown into something and you don't understand what happened. Names of people, things and places are very specific and you always need to look into the glossary to have an idea and kind of imagination of what's on. Therefore I found it quite exhausting. Maybe I'm not ready and chilled enough to read it, or as the author recommends to read it more than once. But I'd really love to watch it as a tv series, so hopefully some studio grabs it soon!

5.0 out of 5 stars A must-buy for ALL readers to expand and enhance their imagination and knowledge of ancient worlds!

As an avid reader and researcher of ancient worlds and hidden histories, I found this work of fiction so well written, insightful and inspired. The way that Powers takes the reader through what most would believe is a mystical journey of ancient Atlantis is as though she had tapped into some forgotten social memory complex of a lost civilization making her privy to everyday life from the charming countryside to the exquisite royal courts and transcendent realities of a world that seems unfathomable in today's mundane existence. The ease with which she unveils the secrets of ancient knowledge into a fictional plot and brings to life complex and otherworldly characters, advanced visionary technology, spellbinding twists and turns, sublime beauty and mysteries of the city itself make this book so incredibly engrossing that the reader will turn page after page captivated and impressed by the author's intuitive and solid understanding of ancient Atlantis. - aka Mae McCaw

5.0 out of 5 stars Magic and a bit of mayhem.
Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2020

As someone who loves the legend of Atlantis, I really enjoyed this book. At the macrocosmic level, the book contains tensions between free will and destiny as well as love and duty. These tensions cause conflict between characters and within them, making for a dramatic story and a fast pace. I also loved the various elements of magic infusing every part of this book. There are Watchers, Nephilim, etc., and each group of entities has its own values and agendas. In terms of setting, I very much appreciated how some of the characters' names reflect Classical Antiquity. I personally believe Atlantis was a reference to Minoan civilization, so some of the Greek-ish and Roman-ish sounding names was a nice touch. That said, the allusions to Classical cultures is not a necessity for a book on Atlantis :)

3.0 out of 5 stars so many emotions about this one...

I did enjoy this one. I DID find myself hypercritical of much of the description of any and everything. I had difficulty following the author's view of most things.

HOWEVER, it was an excellent story. It left me really wanting and needing to know more about the history of characters and situations; left me needing to know what was going to happen next.

MORE SO, I am left frustrated wanting So badly for there to be a sequel and continuation.

I purchased Shadows of Atlantis, frankly, because I have known Mara Powers for years. I have always known she is an excellent artist and I wanted to support her.
I started reading because that's what you do with a book.
I finished it because it's a great read.
Mara brings the world of Atlantis to life. She fills it with well developed characters that make sense. Then she puts them through their paces with a plot that will pull you in and have you worried for the good guys and hoping the bad guys get what's coming to them.
Is the legend of Atlantis real, maybe, maybe not. The Atlantis Mara presents certainly is.
