Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

"Save the world, and join the fight, or else the entire world will die tonight. Take up arms, protect your neck, or else it'll be you who is another body in the wreck." - - All that the five friends wanted to do was explore their old school in the dead of night, avoid being arrested if they were found, and find any and all secrets possible. That does not all go to plan however, for two of them find a mysterious, glowing orb in the girls bathroom that turns out to be a portal. Now, they are all thrown into this mess, with new names and their true identities coming forth, along with their secrets. An enemy is lurking in the darkness, shadowing themselves with other villainous characters the five meet along their way. They all must learn to trust each other, learn to accept loss, discover the truth behind established relationships, and Mae must gather to courage to fight a secret enemy that has been inside of her for 14 years. - - - Publishing began June 20th Cover art was wonderfully made by @ sevrot on Instagram I do not claim certain worlds, backstories, or characters featured in this novel! Many are owned by CatFace Studios, NixHydra, Nintendo, etc. However, this is an original story with non-original characters thrown in for their individual purpose. I would not call this a fanfic, but if that is what you see it as, go ahead. I simply need familiar faces to tell a story close to my heart. Started writing in late 2017.
