I've read several books by Mark Jackson and have enjoyed them all. His books are easy to follow and very fast paced. Many times I had to stop reading and didn't want to. I highly recommend this book and anything else that he's written.

Thankyou to NetGalley, Unbound Digital and the author, Mark Jackson, for the opportunity to read a digital copy of The Atlantis Deception in exchange for an honest and unbiased opinion.
I was drawn to this book by the premise of the storyline. While I did like the book, I didn't love it. The plot seemed drag in a couple of places and was a tad predictable. 2.5 stars.
This is one of those books that you need to read for yourself to decide.

"The Atlantis Deception" eBook was published in 2018 and was written by Mark H. Jackson (https://markhjackson.com). This is Mr. Jackson's first novel. 

I categorize this novel as ‘R’ because it contains scenes of Violence. The story is set in contemporary England, Brazil, and Egypt. The primary character is archaeologist, Dr. John Hunter. 

Hunter has been ostracised by the archaeological community for his theories about Atlantis. Because of his interest in Atlantis, he becomes involved with a secret group in the UK. He travels to the Brazilian rain forest then to the desert of Egypt following the trail to Atlantis. He and his friends find themselves in one harrowing situation after another, caught between two different secret groups. 

I thought that the 6.5+ hours I spent reading this 288-page thriller were interesting. While the basic plot is fine, I am not a fan of the implementation. The story jumps or skips in places and I am not a big fan of the characters. The cover art is OK, but could be tied more closely to the story. I give this novel a 2.8 (rounded up to a 3) out of 5.

I did not finish this title. I read about half of it and just did not want to continue. The premise was okay but there didn't seem to be a lot of mystery and it didn't move as quickly as I would prefer. I am sure others will probably enjoy it immensely however it just wasn't what I expected. I did try to go back in today to skim a bit to see if I could get back into the book however the title was expired.

A wonderful adventure very much in the Indiana Jones style and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
A good storyline with great characterisation, lots of action, plenty of twists and turns to keep you interested. My only criticism is that there were times when I just wanted the story to move on a little quicker but saying that it gripped me from start to finish.

While I have always been interested in the story of atlantis but I just could not get into this book While the story was engaging I just could not find myself liking the book

A good all round adventure story. Written with well developed characters and strong elements of 'Indiana Jones'. In some places the plot was easy to guess, though that did not detract too much. A solid book great for a relaxing read.

The Atlantis deception by Mark Jackson is an adventure story full of detailing.

I though it was a very entertaining book with well though written characters.
Obviously, everyone wants to know more about Atlantis and what happened to this great city.
I give three stars to this book, I believe it is a fascinating story and a great reading for someone that truly appreciates this kind of stories.

Thank you to netgalley and publisher for this copy in exchange of my review.

I don’t really know where to start with this novel. Overall, I thought the story itself was intriguing. It had a lot of interesting elements and kept me guessing throughout. However, with that being said some of the twists and turns seemed over the top and even excessive. The villain being a nazi seemed straight out of an Indiana Jones movie and while shocking didn’t really contribute to the storyline or enhance the story. When I read I specially don’t look to far into things and Over analyze controversial topics. To the contrary, I actually seek these types of books because I think they make for interesting reads. However, the religion aspect seemed forced. Maybe I didn’t truely understand the meaning but it just didn’t mesh well with the book as a whole.

Thanks to Mark H. Jackson and unbound digital for providing me with an advanced reading copy.

Was Atlantis real? If so, where is it now? The Atlantis Deception is one man's quest to find the lost city. It's a tale of exploration and survival. It's twisty enough to keep your interest because you want to know the ending. I enjoyed the characters. It's a good action mystery read. Thanks to NetGalley for an arc in exchange for an honest review.

Can this legend be true? Dr John Hunter knows that his fellow archaeologists see him as a joke especially after looking for Atlantis and not finding it but he was hoping that they would believe him about the body that was found in the bog. John knows that there is something very important about the find but he has no way of proving. But that all changes when Hans Hoffman finds him and offers him all the resources that he needs. But something is off here but John is too excited knowing that he can find the answers that he is looking for.
Just when he thought things were going somewhere he gets a big shock, his ex Inma has been hired to be part of the team but John can't trust her she sold him out. But there are big problems to worry about as there is a group out there that wants what John has and they will stop at nothing to get it. Who can John trust as everyone wants to find this weapon that destroyed Atlantis? His old friend George gets tangled up in the mess as well and luckily he has the skills to help them find the answers.
John knows that things aren't going to end well for them as they have no idea who to trust as the Order has not given John much choice as to who he can turn to and Hoffman has shown his true colours. Can John save his friends from certain death? And will he find what he has always believed?
A great adventure full of surprises. Who doesn't love reading about Atlantis and what really happened to it. I really like John as doesn't give up on his friends even when everything is against him and he never gives up looking for answers. A really good solid read. I was lucky enough to receive a copy via Netgalley & the publishing house in exchange for my honest review.

I enjoyed the book and the global traveling. It's an interesting plot. Characters are well developed.

Think Indiana Jones goes to Brazil. Plenty of action, daring escapes and sinister backdrops make this novel an enjoyable read. Nothing especially new in the plot, but it's still proof that this genre of book is successful in drawing you into a hostile world where survival is Priority One. Great book for a rainy weekend spent before the fire with a glass (or two) of wine. Recommended.

An entertaining and fun to read book! It's a mix of Don Brown and Indiana Jones.
I liked how the plot developed and the well written characters.
It’s a page turner I read in one setting and couldn’t put it down.
Recommended!
Many thanks to Unbound and Netgalley for this ARC

The Atlantis Deception, by Mark H Jackson. Started off with good writing, and an intriguing storyline, but about halfway thru the writing went down to mediocre and the plot just started to cram every theory and idea it could into the story. Overall if you are an Atlantis fan it would be worth a read.
