Epos of Atlantis

Spartacus meets The Hunger Games! Success has made Atlantis decadent, cruel, and greedy. It has begun to rot from within, its people growing hungry and desperate even as its rulers extend their imperial power ever-farther into the world. Into this time of conquest and suffering comes Tar Yunkai-a peasant sold into slavery as a boy, grown to manhood in the fighting-pits of Atlantis, and determined to seek freedom and revenge against the empire that tried to destroy him. Tar sees the hollowness at the heart of Atlantis and believes he can sink it to the bottom of the sea. He doesn't believe in destiny-yet Tar will not sink Atlantis. He will be the one who saves the empire from itself.
