"A good installment in this long running series"
At a dig on the Mediterranean island of Thera, archeologist
Linnea Edel finds a modern day earring buried amidst the
ruins of artifacts from 1600 BC. Not knowing how the
jewelry could be among these ruins, Linnea shows her
anachronistic finding to her old friend Dr. Gordon Ashe,
who is stunned by what she shows him. Gordon shows the earring to his Time Patrol associates.
Each reacts similarly that someone, probably the
alien "Baldies," went back in time and disrupted the
continuum. The team knows they must travel to Ancient
Greece to Plato's Atlantis to ascertain whether the aliens
are changing history by destroying a key link in the
advancement of technology. ATLANTIS ENDGAME is an exciting action adventure tale that
never slows down for even a nanosecond. Andre Norton and
Sherwood Smith cleverly use Atlantis as the latest base of
operations of the Baldies that forces the chronology patrol
squad to try to correct a seemingly minor anachronism that
could snowball into the end of technology before it can
begin on Planet Earth. Fans of the Time Traders series
adventure (see ECHOES IN TIME) will want to travel along
with Andre Norton and Sherwood Smith on this delightful
trek in time. Harriet Klausner
