Colony - Atlantean Gene Stiles

Their World Is About To End The last remnants of a once great society live in massive caverns far beneath the surface of their tortured world. For hundreds of years, they have been imprisoned by black rock and dirt, condemned to an artificial world maintained by their vast technology, never to feel true sunlight upon their skin. But now the last of the water is drying up. Soon the planet will wither and die. They must leave their home or perish with it. Uranus, Lord Father of the People, saved them from the annihilation that consumed the surface world and brought them to the cave of the One Tree. Over a thousand years old, he has led his people with an open heart and gentle hand. But buried deep in his aged mind lies knowledge long forgotten that could preserve his kind...or condemn them to a slow, agonizing death. Cronus, beloved eldest son of Uranus, Ruler of the Table of Twelve, must set aside his peaceful nature to take on a mysterious, powerful golden enemy, bent on the destruction of the People. But when he finds the true nature of his adversary, will he still be able to protect his race or will he crumble before an excruciating mental and physical onslaught? Thus begins the chronicles of the People...the race that gave rise to Earth's First Civilization. Colony is more than mere science fiction. It is historical science fiction...perfectly documented in archeology, geology, religion, mythology, and history. The only questions are, "Will it happen again?" and "Is it already beginning?" Will you believe?
