Why I Chose to Read Dark Shore by Kevin Emerson

What orginally drew me to the Atlanteans series was the synopsis on the back which reads, "In the year 2086, Camp Eden promises summer “the way things used to be,” back before the oceans rose, the sun became a daily enemy, and modern civilization sank into chaos. Located inside the EdenWest BioDome, the camp is an oasis of pine trees, cool water, and rustic charm. But all at Camp Eden is not what it seems. No one will know this better than 15-year-old Owen Parker. A strange underwater vision, even stranger wounds on Owen’s neck, and a cryptic warning from the enchanting lifeguard Lilly hint at a mystery that will take Owen deep beneath Lake Eden and even deeper into the past. What he discovers could give him the chance to save the tattered planet. But first, Owen will have to escape Camp Eden alive…"

 I think the year 2086 caught my eye because I'm very interested in futuristic dystopian novels. Also I am attracted to book where the main character is discovering who they are throughout the book. In this novel, Owen Parker is dicovering that he is a Atlantean and has special powers. I enjoy also when there in a little romance ina novel, and this synopsis suggests that.
