Journey to Atlantis (The Submarine Outlaw Series)
“Philip Roy’s confident, refreshingJourney to Atlantisavoids the tendency now to write such stories as complicated grand narratives set in magical secondary worlds, and provides a lean, linear, episodic tale [that] has an odd credibility about it, and appealing characters: as for whether it is a ‘boys’ book,’ it seems more a mostly male world that doesn’t preclude female participation or readership.” —Canadian Literature“An excellent read that takes no time at all; you will not want to putJourney to Atlantisdown as the action pulls you forward through the Atlantic Ocean. If you’re looking for an underwater adventure that completely delivers,Journey to Atlantisis definitely worth the read.” —What If? Magazine“Philip Roy presents another exciting adventure story … Roy covers a neatly fused set of events and topics in an informative and non-didactic way.Journey to Atlantiswould be useful in the classroom, especially when read along with a geography or social studies unit on modern ocean travel, the Mediterranean area, or ancient Minoan society. Beyond its practical applications,Journey to Atlantisis really interesting!” —CM Magazine“This novel will appeal to students who are interested in the history of Atlantis, or who are interested in nautical adventures.” —RESOURCE LINKS“Roy has crafted an adventure tale that readers will relish. . . .It is an altogether charming read that will capture the imagination of any young reader who has ever dreamt of exploring the world.” —Atlantic Books Today
