In a few days, I’ll officially be the Laurel clan chief—but it comes at a heavy cost. My human family, the McKyes, think I’m dead, and the only family I have left is my surly cousin, Theron. Plus the occasional visit from my dead mother.

Gathering the fifteen clans of Atlantis is more tasking than I thought. Thank fate that Ian has my back, otherwise keeping the peace woul ...more

*My Thoughts*

A choice that will change her life forever. Since she is a descendant of the fabled city of Atlantis, the only one of her clan still alive, and she will soon become clan leader of the Laurels.

This is the 3rd and final book in the series. One thing I did enjoy was the fact that I didn't need to have read the previous two books. There's enough in the descriptions that I can pick up on the story quite easily. The only bit I couldn't work out was what a 'dewing' was but this book covered that quite well.
The book itself has lovely well rounded characters with plenty of development for them. It's an enjoyable book, original storytelling and a good read. ...more

Atlantis Reborn is the third book in the Atlantis Rising Book Series by Gloria Craw. I found this book starts right where the second book left off. I really like that because I feel like I already know the characters. The author does a great job with the plot line in this book that it will leave you second guessing all the twists and turns. I found this to be a fun but quick read

In this last book Alyson is going through alot. She grows emotionally and has to find her way into who she is awfully fast. Her role as clan leader is about to begin and she is to embark on a new journey. this to me is the most dangerous of the books because Alyson is now having to face the consequences of any decision she makes. She has kept secrets from Ian and when they come out could hurt them. There is the fear of not being likenessed, not being accepted by other leaders and of Sebastian still being out there.

The story starts with a bang and ends with a romantic and wonderful moment. Alyson shows her gumption throughout the book with the decisions she makes. Ian is standing by her side just as supportive and sweet as ever. But she also has Phoebe, Lillian, the keepers of the Arx and her cousin as well to help her through it all as well as Ian’s parents.

As she is about to do her ceremony to become a clan chief a new situation arises. One that can harm her race. Only some may not see it that way. She gets others to help her in uncovering what exactly is known and what they find is a doozy. Once this is brought out sparks fly and choices must be made. We see a division in the clans but Alyson and her cousin surprise us once more. As does an unexpected enemy. Only Alyson does something no one expects and gains the respect of the clans.

throughout this book Alyson is faced with many daunting tasks and she handles them with grace. She doesn’t let her fear control her but does what she feels is right. With Ian and her cousin by her side she is strong and confident in all she does.

Her and Ian are wonderful together in this story and find their way through all their problems that come up. He is just as great as before. His love and support of Alyson is seen in every action he does. I love how he is sure that she is his likeness and never wavers in that belief or in his belief in her. That I think helps her feel so calm and steady knowing she has that love and support from him.

The book is well written, action packed and interesting when you see the clan dynamics and politics. It is just alyson’s view however and I think it would be fun to see Ian’s. Each character brings out an emotions whether like rose and her mother where you want to scrunch your nose at them because of how horrible they are or Ian where you just get the warm and fuzzies or even Alyson’s cousin who has you laugh at his grumpiness but warms your heart with his unwavering belief and support in alyson no matter what there will be an emotion about a character. A great ending to a fascinating and interesting series. ...more

3-3.5 stars.

Atlantis Reborn is the third and final book in the Atlantis Rising series by Gloria Craw and I have to admit, I kind of forgot that there was going to be a third book until I was notified that this was being released. Having read the first two, I dove right in as I wanted to see how things were going to end up for these characters.

This book picks up shortly after the end of book two and Alison is officially the head of the Laurel clan which means she needs to meet with the clan lead 3-3.5 stars.

Atlantis Reborn is the third and final book in the Atlantis Rising series by Gloria Craw and I have to admit, I kind of forgot that there was going to be a third book until I was notified that this was being released. Having read the first two, I dove right in as I wanted to see how things were going to end up for these characters.

This book picks up shortly after the end of book two and Alison is officially the head of the Laurel clan which means she needs to meet with the clan leaders to discuss what happens next for everyone. As the story opens, Alison is essentially saying goodbye to her human family (the McKyes) even though they don’t know it. Since things are changing drastically for her, she needs to cut her ties and it isn’t easy for her. Luckily she has Ian and his family to help her through everything.

When Alison gets to the Arx, she begins to learn so much more about who she is and the Laurel clan. She also learns more about what the other clans are concerned about and what they are willing to do to achieve their goals. The biggest issue the clans face right now are tied to their decreasing population and some have uncovered a way to create Atlantian hybrids and Alison knows firsthand how bad of an idea this is.

What I liked about this series was how much growth Alison’s character goes through and it happened throughout every book. She is adaptable and continuing to learn who she is but also where she can help the Atlantians. She has a different perspective and isn’t afraid to share her thoughts and opinions.

The secondary characters were well done in previous books but it felt like they definitely took a backseat in this book. Ian didn’t really have a role here and in my opinion, was really just there as filler. Theron was there to support Alison but he seemed to be her errand guy. I liked the addition of some of the new characters and it was great to see some old characters back in the mix.

Overall I enjoyed this series. While it wrapped the series up well, I don’t know that this one was my favorite. With that said, I thought Craw did a wonderful job developing both the characters and the story. Having crossed paths with the first book in this series inadvertently, I am glad I was able to read the entire series and explore this world that Craw developed. I will definitely be watching for anything new she writes and if you are looking for something different with a unique story, definitely consider checking this one out.

Thank you to NetGalley and the Publisher for the review copy! ...more

"Atlantis Reborn" is the third book in a really enjoyable series. It takes a bit of a turn and focuses more on world development and less on the action/journeys we've come to enjoy from the first two in the series. Here, Alison must leave the human world behind and take her place as the Laurel clan chief, a tradition steeped in ceremony. Leaving her human family behind is really difficult for her, and we spend the first part of the book watching her do so.

It takes a bit of a turn and focuses more on world development and less on the action/journeys we've come to enjoy from the first two in the series. Here, Alison must leave the human world behind and take her place as the Laurel clan chief, a tradition steeped in ceremony. Leaving her human family behind is really difficult for her, and we spend the first part of the book watching her do so. The rest of the book focuses on her duties as clan chief, the ceremony to officially make her clan chief, and her first big meeting as clan chief. This book begins to build up the history of Atlantis and the world of the dewing. We're introduced in brief to some other clans and learn more about Lillian's past/history which has only been hinted at previously.

Most of the characters we've come to really love and enjoy take a backseat in this book, as we focus on Alison's feelings and inner turmoil. This is by far the moodiest of the three books, and this makes sense as Alison is leaving the world she knows behind and taking on some big responsibilities. However, we sacrifice the usual purpose behind her actions (a clear journey/quest) and the action/suspense (albeit mild- it really added something) of the past books. Even her relationship with Ian seems pushed to the background. The last 20% or so of the book really picks up, but I found it pretty lagging in the middle, and it was tough to push through some of the filler.

I did really enjoy learning more about the history of the dewing and some of their fables/key stories. I wish these had come earlier in the series to set up some more distant foreshadowing (here, you learn about them and then the relevant events occur pretty quickly). We've already established the most critical aspects of dewing culture, so they really just cement what we already know rather than add much to it. Most of the book is worry about a discussion/decision that will made, rather than the culture-saving/fixing of the first two where people's lives were on the line. I suppose, theoretically, the decision could leave people's lives on the line, but it seemed more political and mild (and we already know how it will go). This series has been really strong and entertaining, so I was a little disappointed in this third book as it wasn't as strong as the first two, which kept me really enthralled.

That being said, I did still enjoy it and finished it within a few days. The last part was definitely worthwhile and akin to the parts of the first two books that readers loved, so in my opinion, readers following the characters/series will be pleased with the final parts of the book. Please note that I received an ARC from the publisher through netgalley. All opinions are my own. ...more

I just love this series. I love anything magical, and this is full of magic of all kinds. Gloria Craw wrote a series that fully captured my attention, and I was invested the entire way.

Allison will soon be the official clan chief of the Laurel Clan. It doesn't matter that she is the only one left, because she can still make a difference. Her vote will count. But there are others who don't want to see her on the council. Will she survive long enough to take her place among the clans?

Atlantis Reborn is the third book in the Atlantis Rising series, and I really hope it's not the last! We rejoin Allison, Ian, Lillian, Theron, Luke, and Phoebe (to name some of my favourite characters) as Allison prepares to say goodbye to her human life, and take the mantle of Chief of the Laurel Clan. With her abilities, she is able to find out things before she's even really started, which sound like they will have a massive impact upon the dewings.

The finale of the Atlantis Rising series brings Alison a meeting of the clan chiefs to take her seat as one of them. The lies and intrigue are only just beginning, and those odd little friends and alliances made in book two will become very important as new plots begin to unfold around them.

Atlantians and humans were not meant to mix, and strange and horrible things can happen when they do. But they may be the only way to bring back the Atlantean race from the brink of extinction.

Alison becomes clan chief and makes choices that change her life. Each book in this series has Alison handling a different life changing event.

This trilogy is fantastic! I enjoyed each book and this last one is beyond perfect in how it ties everything up. I enjoyed the entire main cast especially Ian, Alison, Theron and Lillian. There are so many great scenes in this story and they all create a world that explains all the concerns and problems that had been building in the first two stories. There is action, humor, sadness, love and joy woven throughout this story. I loved how the me ...more

After reading this series back to back this book had a different feel. I think mainly because they all seemed to work together and she had embraced her Atlantis heritage. There was more about the Atlantis past history which was very interesting. The secondary characters were once again a favorite of mine and I wish I could know their stories. The romance between Alison and Ian was still slight. Would have liked to have seen more of them together as a couple. I received a free copy of this book i ...more

This series is magical, we have amazing characters like Allison, Ian, Lillian, Theron, Luke and Phoebe. When Alison becomes the clan chief she makes decisions that change her life. In each book you find a changing event. Alison and Ian have a sweet romance, but would've loved it more if there was more into them. It is a series that could continue with all secondary characters, and hope it does. ...more
