Scuba diver Eric Rayner disappears while diving at Dean's Blue Hole in Long Island, Bahamas. Atlantis researcher Allison Chandley is approached by Italian billionaire Sergio Franca. USGS political liaison Walker Reade is studying a report by a young seismologist detailing a possible eruption of the Yellowstone Caldera. Each of these seemingly unrelated incidents is tied together, leading to an incredible journey back in time to the ancient kingdom of Atlantis. While following in Eric's footsteps, Allison is whisked away, pulled 70,000 years into the past to end up in the fabled Atlantis. She finds the kingdom in shambles and under constant attack by strange creatures called the Abaddon. When Allison is captured by the creatures, the people of Atlantis deploy an ancient biological weapon to destroy them. Eric and Allison must join together to find a control system called The Terminal, which can alter time and space. The Terminal is a stunning sci-fi thriller that adeptly explores how a past civilization could exist and what that existence could teach today's world. Jeremy Gosnell is a magazine writer and a long-time marine aquarist. He lives in the mountains of western Maryland and was inspired to create this story after reading Graham Hancock's writings on a pre-classical era civilization. His biggest challenge was "tying human genetics, ancient history, and seismology together to create a story that leads back to an ancient kingdom, written about long ago by Plato." He enjoyed envisioning a scientific picture of what Atlantis and its people may have been like. Publisher's website: http://sbprabooks.com/JeremyGosnell

I love when I pick up a book thinking By Jason L Huff I love when I pick up a book thinking, by title or by the cover, that it is about one thing and it turns out to (in the case, my surprise) be something different. I wasn't sure what to think about Jeremy Gosnell's "The Terminal", or whether or not I would even enjoy it. I didn't know it's genre, I didn't even have a cover to judge. Perhaps this worked in its favor. Immediately after reading the prolouge I was intrigued and immersed in the world of The Terminal. I also had no idea I would be reading a sci-fi action thriller.The story is vibrant and full of energy. The author has created a world that is full of life and excitement that puts its foot on the gas and doesn't let up. It centers around a mysterious vertical cave in the Bahamas that is strangely calling people to it and an impending cataclysmic event happening in Yellowstone National Park. The story switches viewpoints of several characters, all of which come to life brilliantly, each in their own non-related events.What lurks beneath Dean's Blue Hole near Long Island, Bahamas? What is the Terminal? and Is the world nearing another extinction-level event? And how do they all relate to one-another.At first, I had a time trying to figure out how things were connected, but eventually we get to the connection and from that point on I couldn't read fast enough. The Terminal is fascinating, blending real-life fact with science fiction creating a believable space to which the characters and scenes create a vivid scene in your mind's eye. You want to know what the motives are for people being attracted to Dean's Blue Hole, and what exactly is the relationship between it and this impending disaster. I would even go so far as to put it on the scale with some of the better disaster movies I've seen.The author is quite knowledgeable about the subject matter and uses quite a few technical terms, which I didn't always understand. However, it didn't detract from the intensity in which the story was drawing me in. Gosnell does a great job at exploring human-nature and their struggle between self-preservation and the need to want to help others survive. The reader spends a lot of time flip-flopping between locations which can be disorienting but eventually are sucked into the story, eagerly wanting to know the fate of the characters. The non-fictional elements make this story believable and allows for the fictional elements to take hold of the imagination more easily. The Terminal uses science fiction elements and mysterious events to tie together a well thought out and intriguing story.If you are looking for a good action-thriller with sci-fi elements, then this is a book you should read. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, licking up each page and thirsty for more. It had all the elements I love about reading, great characters, fast action, building up to a great climax. The Terminal delivers on all fronts.

Momentous By Merrick Hansen Gosnell opens The Terminal with an intriguing scene – a diver, on the verge of some new deep sea discovery in a fact-based deep blue hole. (There are actually these types of things around the world and they frighten me. Anything could be down there.) Gosnell takes a factual phenomena and speculates – what could be down there? Or in this case, who? Now, imagine that in one of these deep blue holes, we find a link to a lost city.The description itself is rather bland compared to the actual story. Jeremy Gosnell has honestly written a spectacular Vernian-inspired science fiction tale. I don’t want to give away key plot points but holy cow did this guy keep me reading. Not only does he have an amazing and original idea here, but he tells this story in a way that feels like it could be plausible with a few tweaks in reality (very minor tweaks).The ocean is largely unexplored. Human curiosity has no limit but our technology currently does – but Gosnell plays on this curiosity in such a way as to make me feel like I did when I read my first Jules Verne novel. (See: full of awe and possibility.) He also examines human nature and the directions it takes us in. He turns a mirror on us and shows us what we could become, given our current treatment of the world around us.

It was a different kind of read that was more out of my element then usual.It starts off talking about a subadiver named Eric that disappeared. Then jumped into talking about a researcher named Allison that wanted to prove alien life had somehow helped to develop the Lost City of Atlantis. Anyways, it was a bit out there, and there were like three stories taking place throughout the entire book, at one point four stories.Towards the end of the book the author found a beautiful way to tie it all together. It was wrapped up nicely with a pretty bow, it even left room for a possible sequel if they’d be interested in writing one.I was unsure of my thoughts throughout most of the book. However, I did have a high desire to find out what was going to happen through the story line and was able to finish it in a timely manner because I had been pulled into the pages. I absolutely enjoyed reading it and look forward to reading more by this particular author in the near future.
