Publisher Description

Dr. Thomas Lourds, internationally-renowned linguist and archaeologist, has just arrived in Istanbul to lecture at the University. But before he even leaves the airport, Lourds is kidnapped and finds himself fighting for his life―and for all mankind.


Deeply hidden somewhere in the city is an ancient scroll written by the author of the Bible's Book of Revelation―a scroll whose secrets might save or destroy humanity. Lourds' religious extremist captors need him to help find the document to achieve their evil ends. After a desperate escape and chase, Lourds searches for the scroll with the help of a former lover, Olympia Adnan, and a deadly Irish mercenary he cannot trust.


Lourds and his dangerous allies must navigate ancient Constantinople's darkest depths to find the scroll before the Devil himself brings the world down around them and the war between good and evil comes to a final showdown.  


About the Author:


Charles Brokaw is a pseudonym for an author, academic, and college educator living in the Midwest. He’s had a rich and varied life, and is fascinated by history, human accomplishment, and archeology. He began the book The Atlantis Code after seeing an article in a scholarly journal. The piece featured a satellite photo, and pointed out ruins visible in Spain which matched closely the description of Atlantis relayed in the writings of Plato. Because the ruins were located in a famous national park, he was certain they would never be explored. That got him thinking about just what treasures are buried beneath the earth. The result was The Atlantis Code. The book is the author’s first published adventure thriller.


Praise for Charles Brokaw:


"Short, gripping chapters move the action from Egypt to Russia to Africa to London.  Indiana Jones meets The Da Vinci Code. Look out, Dan Brown, Brokaw can play this game a lot better than most of your imitators."--Booklist


"In the 19th century, the equivalent of a blockbuster movie was a tense, thrilling novel, often told in serial form.  We tend to forget that the modern novel need not be anything more significant than excellent entertainment, which is the perfect description of Charles Brokaw's The Atlantis Code.  ...A rollicking adventure, with nonstop action and suspense.  Readers can only hope that Brokaw is prepared to send Professor Lourds on further quests."--Publishers Weekly


"If you enjoyed the Da Vinci Code, The Atlantis Code will take you to a new level of mystery, wonder, adventure and excitement. This book will enthrall you and at the same time connect you in a very intimate way with the mystery of your sacred existence."--Deepak Chopra

 

"A winning combination of all the ingredients an adventure addict could want: great action, intrepid archeologists, dark conspiracies, cliffhangers, and a real sense of wonder."--Kevin J. Anderson, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Paul of Dune and author of The Edge of the World

 

"Brokaw's hero is Indiana Jones without the whip.  Who knew archeology could be so exciting?  Wonderful entertainment."--Stephen Coonts, New York Times bestselling author of The Traitor

 

"Storytelling doesn't get much better than this.  I've set this one aside to read again!"--David Hagberg, New York Times bestselling author of The Expediter
