Atlantis: The Sacred Orb:
Jack Roberts and Javier Arista have found an alien laboratory deep within the Marianna Trench. Inside the lab, its greatest secret has been discovered: the cure for all disease. When Jack and Javi release the formula to the world, their triumph is only short-lived. They learn that data is missing, preventing its development, much to the delight of the world's most powerful pharmaceutical corporations. With their alien spacecraft lost at the bottom of the ocean, future visits to the lab to obtain the missing data seem hopeless... until Alfred Jameson, CEO of pharmaceutical corporation Anti-Gen, steps forward and offers his "services". Alfred's offer to help seems dubious at best, but with little other choice, both Jack and Javi agree to their new partnership.

Their adventure begins with the spacecraft's retrieval. From the very start, their actions are monitored and the operation goes horribly wrong. Later, after finding their way to the deep underwater lab, they learn the missing data was saved to a small silver sphere: an orb. Their journey now takes them around the world in search of the seven thousand years old artifact. The ride is relentless as they struggle with armed rebels, deadly booby traps and those that would stop at nothing to get their hands on the orb's cherished data.

When all seems hopeless, Jack has a plan, but so does his enemies. Will he overcome the forces of evil or will they see through his plan and claim the prized orb as their own?

Autorenporträt

Christopher David Petersen (1963 - 20??). Born and raised in Connecticut. As a child, I was always daring and reckless. Never one to let common sense stand in the way of a great adventure, my bold feats of stupidity were legendary... Huckleberry Finn would have been proud.

"Surprisingly", that same spirit carried over into adulthood, as I sought out entertainment that included: scuba diving; ski Mountaineering; mountain biking; Rock, Ice and Mountain climbing; flying planes; golf, motorcycles, the stock market and of course, experimentation with various alcoholic refreshments.

Later in life, writing became an extension of my deep desire to experience "new and exciting worlds". I have written several books, but none have been published through any formal channels... I've heard the process is long, painful and laborious, the thought of which sickens me. My foray into e-publishing came after a friend suggested my works could fetch dollars instead of dust inside my sock drawer... a righteous observation. My recent publications are the result of this advice. Further adventure/suspense novels are soon to be released.

An engineer by trade, I have worked all over the U.S. and usually write in my spare time... that is when I'm not enjoying a bottle of Scotch and a quality cigar. I am a naturally long-winded individual, so writing is what happens when I can't get anyone to listen to me anymore...

I love all kinds of genres but gravitate more towards suspense. There is nothing like the build up to a great climax... What a rush!
