The first book of the Darkwater Saga

A simple decision can cause a massive ripple in the pond of Time. In the case of Kington Lewis, a twenty-something-year-old man working as a librarian in New York City, it was the decision to chase a dragon hiding in his library. This leads to him meeting the last living Atlantean, who's being hunted by a man determined to erase all magic from the world and find the key to immortality. Dragged along on the Atlantean's quest to Norway, Kingston discovers all sorts of magic. Wrestling with their own internal turmoils as well as the one at hand, they race to stop the literal embodiment of death from destroying the world.
And, well, everything goes downhill from there, especially when Kingston finds out that there's more to Griffith than meets the eye.

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?

Draycos, a human with unusually colored eyes, is living peacefully in the newly constructed floating city of Atlantis. However, those peaceful days are shattered when terrorists bomb the city and destroy almost everything. Having survived the attack, Draycos finds himself among the wreckage, apparently the only survivor. Amid his despair, a hole opens in the ground where he is and swallows him up. When Draycos comes to, he finds himself on trial in a land of magic ruled by dragons. His crime: theft of the dragon race's most prized artifact. With no solid proof that he wasn't the thief, he ends up in jail for a crime he hadn't committed! One of the few people who believes him ends up being the King of Dragons, and he gives Draycos a chance to prove himself against everyone. Thus begins Draycos's journey!
