| Claire Holiday has always been empathic with others and had the ability to
heal; but using her gifts tires her for she uses her own life force to
heal. So when a dolphin beaches itself she really wants to help it and
tries to use her powers to see what is wrong. Claire is surprised when
the dolphin turns into a man in front of her eyes; she is
further surprised when other people swarm around her and take her captive.
When Claire comes to she finds that she has been taken to the lost continent Atalantium and that the rebels are planning on using her. Claire's guard is Eros and she is amazed to learn that he is the Eros of legend. She is also very attracted to him. Claire finds this upsetting because Eros is a rebel and she thinks he is betraying his own people. Claire doesn't understand how they can use her meager talents. All she knows is that Zeus is planning to use her to bring about the final battle. This battle will determine the fate of all of Atalantium and if Eros and Claire do not figure out what is going on it could be the end of them all. This is Ms. Morin's third and final book in the Atalantium series and must not be missed for those who have read the others. If you have not read the other two I highly recommend them but they don't necessarily have to be read to enjoy this book. This story has lots of surprises and will have you guessing until the end. I found this to be a very exciting and very fulfilling end to a wonderful series. Eros is a wonderful hero with a wonderful talent to provide sexually fulfillment to his lady. Claire is a very strong and powerful woman who fights for what she believes in and is willing to fight to the death for her man and her beliefs.
