Great read! Strong but tortured warriors, spunky and determined human mates, crackling personal chemistry and lots of page-turning action - quintessential Alyssa Day.
The latest entry in the Warriors of Poseidon series resolves the cliff hanger ending of Atlantis Awakening where the half-breed warrior Justice volunteered to become the prisoner of the evil vampire goddess Anubisa. Between tormented captivity and the breaking of his gaes Justice's mind has shattered, allowing the non...more

I'll admit it - I'm hooked on Alyssa Day ( http://www.alyssaday.com/ )in general and her Atlanteans, specifically. I was captivated before I finished the first page and stayed up entirely too late on a work night to finish the entire story.
Alyssa Day, the pen name of RITA-award winning Alesia Holliday, has continued the pace and kept the action rolling in this addition to her Warriors of Poseidon series. If you like a little sizzle and spice mixed with incredibly hunky leading men wh...more

This book was a good book. I liked the concept and it was different. Although I don't think this was the first book in the series. The only thing that I did not like is that the author did not make it an easy read for a first time reader if the books were to be read out of order. Things were happening that did not have any explanation. I'll read the first one, but this was a good book from a New to me author, and it won't be my last. I also liked that the sex scene did not happen until way over ...more

Atlantis Unleashed by Alyssa Day was well worth the wait. According to the author's website quite a few months back, Alyssa Day was not able to publish her next book in the Warriors of Poseidon series due to illness. Happily, all is now well and the pub date was set for (technically) book 3.

Finally! After a way too long wait, the Atlanteans are back! "Atlantis Unleashed" continues the story of Poseidon's warriors who have been called to save humanity and bring Atlantis back to the surface. To do this, they must gather the missing jewels from Poseidon's trident or Atlantis will crumble rather than rise and humankind will fall to the bad guys.

Very good continuation of the The Warriors of Poseidon series. This is the story of Justice and he is returning after being tortured for a long time. He is a half breed and those two halves are fighting each other. Dr Kelly McDermott is a has the ability to touch objects and see the past. She touches an object that connects her with Justice. When they met, he knows that they are destined to be mates.

This book focused on Justice. He is the striking warrior of Poseidon with the long Blue/Black hair and eyes of night.
In this book we fine out what's happened to him after sacrificing himself for his 2 half brothers, Conlan & Ven.
I don't want to give away a thing. So all I can say is that it will take something amazing to bring him back from the darkness that Anubisa has left him...
A good Read.

Excellent book, as has been the whole series. This book was Justice's story. It was pretty complex, I didn't LOVE the whole dual personality thing but it made a good story. Keely and Justice were well suited and you were drawn in to both their romance and the plot in general. It felt like a lot of thought went into this book, a lot of planning and plot work. I enjoyed it and am looking forward to the next in the series. I'm very impressed with this author.

And the story goes on...
This 5th novel of the Atlantis Warriors was a bit more complex than the other books. Maybe it was because of Lord Justice's complex character.
The story was good and yet again there was space enough for the side story with Alaric and Quinn which was nice. :)

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this paranormal romance. I love Day's warriors from ancient Atlantis and their tribulations with love and the modern world. Very fun read for me!

I loved Justice's book. The ending of Atlantis Awakening wasn't promising for poor Lord Justice, but wow, I liked his story. I liked how the love story went, where Keely falls in love with both halves of Justice's nature; the Atlantean and the Neried. And I like how they were linked through visions of each other, but neither knew the other was real. Very well done. If you haven't read the Warriors of Poseidon, do not start with this one. You could even skip the novellas, as far as sequence...more

This might have even been heading into four and a half star territory.
It has been a while since I read the previous entries in Alyssa Day's Atlantis series, but I liked this one even more than the first two. Justice makes a great, tortured, tragic hero, and Keely is a fun, feisty heroine. And, as a bonus, we are treated to another tiny glimpse into the brewing story of Alaric and Quinn.

Lord Justice is one yummy warrior. Dr Keely McDermott is a sad misjudged person because when she touches an item she is controlled by what has happened in the past to the item until she finishes seeing the entire past that has happened. So she wears gloves. So everyone thinks she is crazy. Until she meets Justice and he thinks her beautiful and normal and his!!! Wow what a story. The best yet...

The plot was all over the place in this one, there were just too many view points shown and not enought of them were about the lead characters. The story didn't really catch my attention, I hope the next one is better.
