"In a city ruled by greed and corruption a team of missionaries land to spread light, love and hope."
Elysia and her team of Light Ray missionaries have made sacrifices and undergone a transformation in order to travel in human form to Poseidia, the Capital of Atlantis, to guide civilisations in “wise ways of abundance”. But upon landing they realise things aren’t what they seem, an obsessive new monarch has enough power to destroy the world and beyond and the key to the team’s success to overpowering the forces of Lesser Light could be with the hypnotic Alaric, who makes Elysia question everything she knows as a missionary to be true.
This is an interesting storyline that centres around Elysia’s work and the secret past she uncovers. The Metaphysical aspect of the plotline gives the storyline a spiritual feel, focusing on the missionaries spreading a positive message by emanating love and hope throughout the book. Elysia is an interesting main character, seemingly different from her other missionaries and struggling from the outset with dealing with desires she thinks stem from Lesser Light manipulation. I enjoyed seeing throughout the book as she overcame her insecurities and started to fulfil her potential. There’s still plenty of this story to tell, Atlantis Writhing being the first book in a series and fans of more spiritual / metaphysical fiction will enjoy this positivity-filled storyline.

BRONZE WINNER OF THE COVR VISIONARY AWARDS. Like watching "The Titanic" sink on "Avatar", where love is the only light in the world's darkest night of the soul. A civilization trembling toward collapse—and the unbreakable love that may bring Atlantis back from the brink. Atlantis is writhing. Chaos and greed have granted an obsessive new monarch enough power to destroy the world—and beyond. The only thing standing between King Gadeirus and intergalactic annihilation is Elysia and her fellow Light Ray missionaries. As time grows short, the missionaries work tirelessly to overcome the evil Lesser Light forces. When all options have been stripped away, a symbol long lost to antiquity surfaces just in time to inspire them to concoct one last desperate scheme. Forbidden longings must be dealt with, too. Cravings Elysia must confront in the presence of hypnotic Alaric, a visiting dignitary with a scandalous past. But behind his seductive ways is a shocking secret—an unexpected key that may help Elysia unlock her potent power and wield it in the fight for the Highest Light.
