A woman experiences the "end of the world" but rather than trying to locate her husband and two infants she inexplicably decides to reinvent the global political structure using ESP and magical crystals on the emergent continent of Atlantis. All in the first 14 days.  There are elements of fantasy but there is no reaction to the significance of the transformations.  Things happen without development or discovery (like the sudden ability to levitate large objects).  She is surprised, at one point, that there has been no word (to her) what the national military plans are.  Go figure.  Millions have died but there are not even moments of grief from anyone.  All the main characters appear delusional.  In the end she "may or may not try to reach her children and husband, or maybe they will try and find her in Atlantis". The only explanation is that she has been bumped on the head and is having a "Wizard of Oz" dream.  Sadly for me, no.  In looking at the other reviews, I have to wonder if we all read the same book.  My criticism is not with the topic, but with the storyline.  A rewrite and some character development (backstory, motivation, etc.) could turn this into a good book indeed.
