Code Name: Atlas
By Tony Evans
The synopsis of this book really intrigued me and, I am embarrassed to say, it was the cover that sold me. I try to follow the traditional saying to "never judge a book by its cover" but luckily, I was not disappointed. This book has it all; love, conflict, heroes, villains and lots of twists.
Set in a futuristic time when the Earth is destroyed by an unknown force. All basic necessities of the life we know, electricity, wireless communication, and clean water are no longer available. Scavengers roam the Earth to take anything of use, even if it requires killing to get it. This is definitely a world none of us want to see, I can't take it when I lose my Wi-Fi!
Friendships are bonded and enemies are made all out of the basic need to survive. One man, Atlas, an ex- soldier, creates a make-shift army. He is recognized as publicized hero and expected to lead the new army, in hopes to create a new civilized world for the survivors. This is a lot to take on for anyone, even more so without the support of your spouse. Though his actions are for Amori, his wife, she is resentful of him. This adds another worry to Atlas' already full plate.
Overall, I loved this book. This is listed as a standalone read, but I see a "part two" in the future as the ending leaves a reader wanting more.
From here I need help from you, If the editing issue is only with my copy, please include this as my last paragraph.
I give this book 5 stars. I love the writing, the suspense and the characters.
