QUALIFY: The Atlantis Grail (Book One)
You have two options. You die or you Qualify.
The year is 2047. An extinction-level asteroid is hurtling toward Earth, and the descendants of ancient Atlantis have returned from the stars in their silver ships to offer humanity help.
But there’s a catch.
They can only take a tiny percent of the Earth’s population back to the colony planet Atlantis. And in order to be chosen, you must be a teen, you must be bright, talented, and athletic, and you must Qualify.
Sixteen-year-old Gwenevere Lark is determined not only to Qualify but to rescue her entire family.
Because there’s a loophole.
If you are good enough to Qualify, you are eligible to compete in the brutal games of the Atlantis Grail, which grants all winners the laurels, high tech luxuries, and full privileges of Atlantis Citizenship. And if you are in the Top Ten, then all your wildest wishes are granted… Such as curing your mother’s cancer.
There is only one problem.
Gwen Lark is known as a klutz and a nerd. While she’s a hotshot in classics, history, science, and languages, the closest she’s come to sports is a backyard pool and a skateboard.
This time she is in over her head, and in for a fight of her life, against impossible odds and world-class competition—including Logan Sangre, the most amazing guy in her class, the one she’s been crushing on, and who doesn’t seem to know she exists.
Because every other teen on Earth has the same idea.
You Qualify or you die.

How soooooon ???
Short answer, I don’t know maybe a couple of months. 🙂 Long answer can be found in the new TAG discussion forum: http://atlantisgrail.proboards.com/
Loved both books, read them both in three days because i couldn’t put them down.
No update in two months as to when Win will be coming out. Do you have any more information for us?

I finished this book in one day! It was just so good but now I have to wait for the second book to be published 🙁
Oh, I am so glad you enjoyed! 🙂 And don’t worry, book two, COMPLETE, will be here sooner than you know! July 20, 2015 is the expected release date.
Thanks so much!
Wow okay so a while back I found Qualify on Wattpad and read up all the way until it stopped. I was crushed when I saw that there wasn’t anymore (it was probably the worst possible point to stop for a reader, it was right before she plunged in L.A for the semi-finals) So determined to finish it, I went and bought it for the nook. Let me just say that this is one of the best books I’ve read in a long time. Literally can not wait for July 20th. I’m so excited!
Oh, thank you so much! 🙂 You have no idea now good it it to hear that my story was well liked!
I am currently hard at work on book two, COMPETE, and yup, it’s coming in July! Not that long to wait!
Oh, and in case you haven’t seen it, here is the cover image for COMPETE:

Thanks so much again, and welcome to my website!
Vera
Me and my friend have been arguing for the past 3 hours about who we ship gwen with. In my opinion, I think Logan is Bae and they NEED to be together. PLEASE make Logan be with gwen… Or I may be out of $5 very soon. (We made a bet)
Hi Carla,
And LOL! Sorry, but if I say anything that would be major spoilers!
Agreed, Logan is awesome, but so are some of the other guys in the story, so… You and your friend will just have to keep reading the next books to find out! 🙂 And good luck on the bet!
Thanks for asking!
Vera
Your Book is really really the best book I’ve ever read (better than Harry Potter)
I can’t wait for the book 2, but I can’t buy it because I’m from the Philippines I just read your first book in wattpad so yeah, a cliffhanger… I really really want to read it but somehow I can’t…
May I Just Ask if you will publish it again in wattpad??
Do you have eBook in sale for the Compete: Atlantis Grail(book 2) and when and where to buy??
Your reply will be much appreciated, thanks in advance
Oh, thank you so much! 🙂 It’s so wonderful that you like QUALIFY!
COMPETE, Book two, is coming approximately on July 20, 2015, and I will post a few of the first chapters on Wattpad.
The whole book will be available for sale from all kinds of places, and I am sure at least with some of them you can buy from Philippines, such as Smashwords, or Apple iTunes (iBooks), Kobo, plus Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Scribd, Oyster, All Romance Ebooks, etc… You can also ask your local library to carry the hardcover or trade paperback editions.
Stay tuned for various sales and free giveaways too, so, good luck! I am sure you’ll have the chance to get a copy! 🙂
Thanks for the information… And I hope your story will be in bug screen soon…
*big screen
LOL, yes, a big screen is definitely better than a bug screen! 🙂
I SHIP AESSON KASS and GWEN LARK
It might be interesting to read about the Life of Aesson Kass, son of Kassiopei
You’ll be happy to know that there is plenty of Aeson Kass and Gwen Lark storyline coming up in COMPETE! 🙂
I was wondering if I missed the release of book 2
Thanks for asking — no, you did not miss it, COMPETE has been delayed for a couple of weeks as I finish up the book. Very soon now!

I finished book 2 and it was amazing!! Will you be posting a couple chapters of book 3 on wattpad any time soon? I need to k
Thanks so much! 🙂 So glad you enjoyed!!
I am hoping to have some preview chapters of WIN, book three, up on Wattpad for you guys in time for the holidays in December. More as the time approaches!
🙂
Vera
How am I supposed to survive until December?! My only hope lies in reading the first two books over and over again until Win is finally released. Being a obsessive reader, rather than a superb writer like yourself I really don’t have the words to adequately explain just how much I loved your books. I read a lot. I’m talkin’ 5 books a week a lot and it’s been a while since I’ve been so thoroughly engrossed…. So thoroughly transported by a series. All I can say is, please don’t stop. I need more!
Wow, I am blushing, thank you SO MUCH for your lovely comments! 🙂 You’ve made my day!
The good news is, December is just around the corner, and I can’t wait to post the preview chapters of WIN for you over at Wattpad!
Thanks again, and hang in there!
🙂
Vera
Oh my goodness I finished reading book 2 and I am so amazed right now. The books are amazing. Very well written and extra ordinary narratives. I wish that the 3 book would release sooner. Just so you know Book 2 is the 1st book I have purchased in years. I loved it. Thank you. I would love to get an idea of what comes next.
Thank you kindly for the lovely comments! So glad you enjoyed! 🙂
The good news is, the third book, WIN, will have an early holiday preview in December 2015, where I will post some of the first chapters on Wattpad.
Stay tuned and thank you again so much! 🙂
Vera
I just finished reading Compete. All I can say is wow! I loved this book. I have started reading it again because I know I missed something because I was reading too fast. I am waiting patiently for Win to come out.
Wow, thank you so much! What a thrill to hear! 🙂 Enjoy the re-read, and WIN, book three will be here before you know it! 🙂
Vera
I really enjoyed these two books. Look forward to Win (wish it was already here:)
Thank you so much! 🙂 WIN will be here very soon! 🙂
I loved the first two books in the series. It’s been a long time since something hooked me so well.
When should we expect Win to be available for purchase?
Thank you,
Ana

When will Win be published? I loved the first two books, and can’t wait to read the third one! Do you know when it will be released?
Thanks so much! I am still working on it, hoping to be done with WIN in a few weeks. The book was delayed due to my medical issues.

Vera I’m sorry. In my excitement and haste I left a message without looking at the site. It feels like such a long time to wait. So excited. Thanks for your reply. 🙂
No problem! 🙂 I do need to make it more obvious or easily visible on the website, since many people seem to have trouble finding the info, so will see what I can do… 🙂
I have looked every where for book 3 Win, couldn’t find it so decided to check out your web site. I just can’t believe we have to wait until December and then only for a couple of chapters??? You can’t mean that really!
I have been so totally engrossed that at 2.30am my husband grabbed my kindle and threw it across the bedroom and said “you have been on that f……. Book for 15hours solid (read book1 and 2 back to back) couldn’t put it down.” Needless to say I spent the rest of the night in the spare bedroom.
I can’t wait for book 3.
Aww, thank you immensely, so glad you enjoyed the books! And oh dear, about your husband and that Kindle! 😉
It takes me about 6 months to write this kind of long book, so I wish I could do it faster but I can’t… But, it will be here before you know it!
Thanks again! 🙂
Vera
I am absolutely miserable! I read both Qualify and Compete in one 24-hour session!! I have never obsessed about a book before and I’m too old to start now. Help!! Write faster!!!
Amen!
*big grin*
Thank you, thank you! Writing as fast as I can! 🙂
Vera
P.S. I think this would make a better movie series than Hunger Games!
Wow, thank you! And I hope one of these days the opportunity to make a movie of this series will come up! It needs to become really popular before it can get noticed by the film studios… 🙂
I agree. Was saying this to friends who I’ve recommended the books to. It would be brilliant as a film.
Thanks so much for spreading the word, Tanya! 🙂
Vera
Thank you so much for the first two books in the Atlantis Grail series, Qualify and Complete. I read them both in about 3 days and started reading them again! So looking forward to February for the next one!
And thank you kindly for the wonderful comment! I’m so happy the books connected with you! 🙂
Vera
I have to apologize for the mistake in calling the second book “Complete”. I would love to say that it was the fault of auto-correct but must admit, it was all me. It was still awesome!
Oh, no need to apologize at all! LOL!
I do that too myself all the time, if I type too fast! COMPETE/COMPLETE… In fact I think I did it at least once in these comments already! 😉
Vera
Your books are getting me in toublt on my work and sleep!! I just couldn’t put Qualify and Compete down, 5 more minutes turned into an hour and than another till I finished them and now I can’t wait till book 3!
Thank you so much! And, yikes about the missed sleep and work! But so glad you enjoyed!! 🙂
Vera
Atlantis Grail series is way beyond any books I have read in the past ten years! I have never left a comment before, but I couldn’t resist. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent. I am eager for WIN to come out.
And I really appreciate your lovely comment! Thank you, so glad you are enjoying the series! 🙂
Vera
I enjoyed Qualify and Compete and got my Niece hooked as well. Can’t wait for February!
Thank you so much, Karen! So glad both you and your Niece are enjoying the story! More coming soon! 🙂
Vera
Just finished reading qualify and compete for the second time in three days..wow I love Kass and Gwen…forget chocolates and flowers…I will be looking forward to Win Feb 14th
Oh, you are going to have a fantastic Valentine’s Day! *beaming*
Thanks so much! 🙂
Vera
This book was a wonderful surprise! I love to read and when I can’t put a book down.. well needless to sau I am absolutely hooked! I just finished QUALIFY. I can’t wait to read COMPETE. Kass and Gwen.. the dynamic between them is so intense.. I just love it! The characters are so well rounded and you go into great detail so that we get a real sense of who they are. Great reading….. KEEP IT UP!
Oh, thank you so much, Cherry! Your wonderful comment made my day! I am so thrilled that you enjoyed the read! 🙂
Vera
I love your books. I just finished Quailfy and Compete and find myself wishing that WIN is available to read NOW…. I can’t wait to find out what happens between the Prince’s family and his Choice for a bride.
Thank you for your wonderful books.
And thank you so much, Colleen! I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed! Book three, WIN, will be here very soon! 🙂
Vera
Book lovers know what I’m talking about. When you’re browsing through Amazon’s “Free kindle books” selection, you always get a little geeked up when you see a book that’s available that is…GASP…over 500 pages. I mean, for me, this is at least three hours of free entertainment.
Qualify did NOT disappoint. It was an incredibly well written book with characters that were well developed and enjoyable. I started the read as I was laying in bed for the night…and then proceeded to irritate my husband for the next four hours as I Could.Not.Put.It.Down. Let me tell you, if a book is good enough to keep this busy working mom up past her bedtime…that’s something. I stayed up way too late finishing it…and them immediately went to work then next day and purchased the second book.
Atlantis Grail has me, Vera. I’m looking forward to books three and four and am already recommending it to all like-minded book friends. And when it’s done….dare I hope for….BIG SCREEN TRANSLATION?!!! Oh man…those Atlanteans would look good on the big screen.
You truly warmed my heart with your lovely comment, Maggie! Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed (and sorry to have kept you up late)! 🙂
And just maybe, a movie could happen one day, if enough people read the series! 🙂
Vera
I can’t WAIT for WIN! Maybe you can send me the ecopy soon?! Please? (59 yr old sci-fi and fantasy fan, and I read a lot of YA fiction)
Aww, thank yo so much, the book is still being written! But, coming soon! 🙂
Vera
December can not come soon enough!! Will you posting the chapters at the beginning of the month or at the end?? Please say at the beginning I cant wait any longer!!!
I haven’t decided yet but it will be around the middle of the month, probably around the 15th of December… Soon! 🙂
I love this book! I got the second one yesterday on Amazon and am nearly finished! When is the 3rd one coming out! It is such a good series so far! 🙂
Thank you so much, Maia, so glad you enjoyed the books! 🙂
WIN, book three is coming on February 14, 2016, Valentine’s Day, but I plan to post an advance preview of several chapters over at Wattpad in December, just in time for the Holidays!

Thanks so much again! 🙂
Vera
I am literally blown away by this series! I have never read anything as fantastic. I think I experienced every emotion you can from the first two books. It has been an amazing Odyssey following Gwen through her romantic journey. I can’t wait to read your third installment! On pins and needles!
Oh, you’ve just made my day! What a wonderful thing to hear for an author, thank you so much! *beaming*
So glad you are enjoying the series, and stay tuned for book three coming soon! 🙂
Vera
Vera,
Excellent series! I downloaded the first one on a Thursday night and read until 1:30 am when I had to go to sleep because a 6 am alarm is really early with little sleep. My weekend was already scheduled with full days but my late nights consisted of reading Qualify and then downloading and finishing Compete in the wee hours of Monday morning. My only sleepy regret is the last book is not out yet!
Great series with endearing characters. I would LOVE to see this on the big screen! This will be a great Valentines present to me!
What a lovely comment first thing in the morning, Nancy, thank you so much! So glad you liked the series! 🙂 WIN is coming soon!
Vera
It should be illegal being able to end a book like Compete! I’m literally going to go crazy before the next book is out…
No doubt I’m going to buy it the minute it’s released!
Thank you for writing such a great series of books 🙂
Literally blows your mind away with how detailed everything is..
🙂
LOL! Thank you so much, Mire! 🙂
I am so happy that you liked it so much, and don’t worry, the next book will be here very soon! Working on it! 🙂
Vera
Ok Vera.. hooked major lol.. I am a sixty year old woman and I love the Atlantis Grail series.. I have read both books and am soo looking forward to the others.. please.. when will the others be available.. I liked the Cobweb bride as well but this series is the best I have read in many a day..

Vera
Are there any particular actors or celebrities that you envision your main characters to look like?
Good question! 🙂 Here are two Pinterest boards that have some possible character looks:

and:
https://www.pinterest.com/veranazarian/the-atlantis-grail/
LOVED the first two! I’m so bummed I’ll have to wait until February for “Win”! Is there a synopsis for this one yet?
Thank you so much! And the book is still being written! 🙂
Vera
Compliments on the Atlantis series, love both books. Awesome storyline, finally some new ideas!. I’ll be buying Win as soon as it hits kindle. God speed writing what’s left of aeson and gwen’s journey. Looking foward to take the jorney with them.
Thank you so much for the lovely comment and kind words! 🙂
Great book totally awesome read book 1and 2 back to back I literarily couldn’t sleep till I finished them, great work can’t wait for book 3
Thank you so much! 🙂
Wow. You write like an angel. It was like looking a movie and I hope that soon I will watch it on big screen. Cant wait until book 3 is published.
Oh, thank you so much! I would love to some day have these made into movies too! 🙂
This series is amazing, I honestly think it’s as good as Harry Potter (and I am Harry Potter obsessed)! Can’t wait for the third book, the wait is killing me! This is the first dystopian future series I have read in a long time that actually has a completely new and original premise and I love it. Really hope these get made into movies!
Wow, I am honored, thank you so much, Ella! *beaming* So glad you like! 🙂
WIN will be here soon — the December holiday preview chapters are coming to Wattpad, and then in February on Valentine’s Day, the release date! 🙂
Vera
I love your books! Aeson Kass is a really interesting character, and I may have a book crush. I’d love to know what is going on in his head. Any chance there will be a few chapters from his point of view in the upcoming books?
Aww, thank you so much! 🙂 I love Aeson too, he’s one of my favorite heroes I’ve written!
After the 4-book series is done, there will definitely be at least one full novella, all from his POV! 🙂
Vera
OH MY HOLY SWEET POTATO!!! That is way more than I was expecting and I am super excited to finally see exactly what thoughts and emotions he has been hiding behind that infuriating mask of his. Thank you so much!
Actually you will get to find out Aeson’s true thoughts and emotions a whole lot earlier, namely in the very beginning of WIN, book three. So, stay tuned! 🙂
Hi, I originally read Qualify on Wattpad and I loved it. I got so obsessed that I brought that I bought the next book from Amazon the day after I finished Qualify! Please, will you post the 1st chapter of Win on Wattpad? After Compete’s ending, I don’t think i can survive if I don’t know what happens next!
PS: this book series should TOTALLY be made into movies!
I agree! And you can help make it happen by voting here to support the making of the QUALIFY movie:

Thanks! 🙂
Thanks so much, Sam! 🙂
Good news — I will be posting an extended preview of WIN on Wattpad starting on Wednesday, December 16. It will be several chapters (not sure how many yet over the next few weeks. So, stay tuned! 🙂
I read both Qualify and Compete and I can’t wait to read WIN. These books are both entrancing. I could not put them down. I agree that with the previous posts…Qualify should be made into a movie. I love the plot lines!!!!
Dear Trisha,
Thanks you so much! 🙂 So glad you like the books! And I agree about the movie! In fact, you can help make it a reality by going here and voting to support the QUALIFY movie project:

Thanks again! 🙂
Vera
***SPOILERS***
Just got done binge reading your books and I’m obsessed. Team Kass… like yes. I love his character and I although I knew where you were going with him. It didn’t make it easy to read because I just wanted to slap him the entire time, but I’m still love him. At the end of the second book, I was pretty much in tears. I knew what he wanted all along and I knew he was waiting for something. I was just waiting for anything at this point!
I cannot wait for the next books! I’ve already got my days off so I can binge read!
And for real… this needs to be a movie, I’ve already got to the website and voted on the characters.
Please keep up the amazing work and next time, let me breathe a little before you just go ahead and drop those bombshells! :))
Thank you immensely! 🙂 *beaming*
And the good news is, you get to read the Holiday advance preview chapters of WIN starting on Wednesday December 16, on Wattpad! So, very soon now!
I got your book “Qualify” and could not put it down. I am a 60 year old male and am a NON-READER, except for books that I had to read in college. This book turned me into a reader of books, and I just had to purchase you next book “Complete” and again I had some late nights staying up reading you book. It will be a long wait until your third book “Win” comes out in February. THANK you so much for turning me back to a reader of books. Now, I download some books on my new Kindle, but can not find an author like you that keeps me up at night reading, like your books.
Wow, I am absolutely honored, thank you so much for the lovely comments! Enjoy the rest of the books! 🙂
Vera
I got Qualify from Amazon when trying new authors for free. I absolutely loved it as well as Compete. Can’t wait for Win. Sorry about all the pressure from the fans who want it earlier. Your books are worth waiting for. Thanks for amazing books and all the hard work .
Thank you so much for the lovely note, I am thrilled you like it! And believe me I understand the readers wanting the books asap, I just wish I could write faster! 🙂
Thank you again! 🙂
Vera
I started your book Qualify on my recent vacation with my daughter and grand-daughter in November. I read it on airport layovers. As soon as it was finished bought and downloaded Compete. Time went so fast in the airports that even a 4 hour layover didn’t bother me. It is an absolutely wonderful series and will buy ‘Win’ as soon as it is out. You really caught me when you ended Compete aqs you did!
Thank you so much and so glad you and your family are enjoying the read! 🙂
I’ve started posting a Holiday advance preview of WIN over here at Wattpad, so here’s your chance to enjoy Chapter One of WIN before the book is out next year!

🙂
Vera
The 3rd book comes out on my 21st birthday! I hope I’ll be able to get it at that time lol.
Ooh, wonderful to hear! 🙂
Vera
I would just like to say thank you for writing these books!!! Arghh they are amazing!!!! I brought them both on the 19th Decembre, and stayed up until 2 in the morning reading them! And then read them each 7 times. And then couldn’t believe that I had to wait 2 WHOLE MONTHS until Win comes out so googled your name. And found out about Wattpad. And then signed up and read all of the holiday specials.
I have told all my friends to go read the first book, which hopefully they will. I’m so glad that the first book is free, because that’s how a found Qualify, scrolling through Amazon at the zero pence option! Of course, I then HAD to buy Compete. The build up in both books had me on edge the entire time! When Aeson nearly died and Gwen got caught- god I was about to faint. And let me tell you, I was shaking through any of the Aeson/Gwen moments, always thinking -‘This is it, this is it! They are going to share their love for each other!’ And then Aeson would get defensive, or the music would stop. Grrr. But the Holiday Special, ahhhh. My heart melted. So much love!! And Anu- please don’t make him any more grown up or serious. He’s one of my favourite characters. I, for once, am looking forward to Valentines Day, and not because the leftover chocolate is at a sale price the day afterwards, but rather so I can finally quench my thirst and feed my hunger for more information on Aeson, Gwen, Lark 1,3 and 4, Gwens friends, and anyone who is part of this book. Again, thank you for this book, and the pleasure it gives when reading them!
Dear Hannah,
Your delightful note has absolutely made my day, thank you so much! 🙂 Such a thrill to hear that you are enjoying the books, and more coming soon!
Vera
I stumbled on this book when I had to d a reading project it seemed interesting so I picked it. After reading it I absolutely love this book and has became one of my favorite books I have not yet read the second one but I hope soon I’ll be able to read it. Thanks for such a great book and I hope the second one is equally the same or even better.
Thanks so much! I am so glad you liked it! 🙂
I love this series!! I read Qualify and couldn’t stop talking about it to my sister so I (not so patiently) waited for her to read it and now we are reading Compete together! We live a time zone apart and I finished it last night. I couldn’t wait to call her this morning to talk about it!! We are so excited to find out what is going to happen next! Thanks for making this such an addictive series!!!!
What a lovely thing to hear, thank you so much! So glad both of you are enjoying the series! 🙂
Vera
OMG these books have been awesome 🙂
I never buy books but after getting Qualify for free I could not not buy Compete only to get to the end and find out the remainder of the series has yet to be released 🙁 so sad
But sooooo looking forward to Win being released
Thanks so much! And, WIN, book three is coming soon! I’m writing it as fast as I can! 🙂
Vera
Just wondering when “Win” comes out on Feb. 14 will there be a kindle version?
The book has been delayed a few weeks due to my medical issues, but when it comes out, yes it will be available in all ebook formats including Kindle, epub, PDF, etc, plus hardcover and paperback. 🙂
omg omg vera i loved this sooooo much i must know what happens next in win. i also totally want to know what is happening behind that ice cold mask of aeson kass. he is so great i have a book crush lol. you did such a good job describing these characters. this book must be made into a movie
these books are better than the Princess Bride or Harry Potter! my goodness these books are probably better than peanut butter! and im a twelve year old girl so you could call me a crazed atlantis grail fan.
i know you get alot of fan mail like this but these books are the greatest ones ever i give these books one hundred stars out of five. please dont stop writing and dont let anyone discorage your work!
Thank you so much, Gracie! 🙂 Wow, so glad you like the books, and it’s so sweet of you to say this!
*big hugs*
Vera
all my friends are excited about the valentines dace but i over her like win!win!win!
*big grin*
Wow Vera! These books are absolutely superb. This book must get made into a motion picture! And I have been helping with that. After i read Qualify and Compete i started telling my friends at school about it. I have over 60 friends. You could say im the popular type! So i recommended these books to them all and 50 has read win and compete so now im asking them if they can write letters to producers and directors! Im probably one of your biggest fans! When i read the first three chapters of win i squealed out “Yes take that logan!” And i woke up my whole family but it was worth it! I love your work so never stop writing.
One question though will the whole book of win be posted to read on amazon February 14 so I can buy it?
~MacKenzie
Dear MacKenzie,
Thank you so much for your truly wonderful comments, and for spreading the word on this series to all your friends. You have no idea how much I appreciate it! 🙂
Here is one place you guys can all click to support the making of a movie of QUALIFY:
http://www.iflist.com/stories/altantisgrailqualify
As far as more chapters of WIN, yes, there will definitely be several new chapters posted on February 14, is all I can say right now — stay tuned for more information after February 1st! 🙂
Love,
Vera
I love these books sooooooo much but does the next chapter of win come out on Feb. 14 or the whole book? I’m waiting patiently (not) for February lol.
More will be posted about this on February 1, 2016… Stay tuned! 🙂
when will the whole book of win come out?
More will be announced on February 1, 2016, stay tuned! 🙂
Noooo!!!! I have just finished Book 2 of The Atlantis Grail series. I am going to have to read Books 1 & 2 again just to get through the torturous waiting period for the third books’ release.
I will definitely be buying it as soon as it is released.
Awww, thank you so much! 🙂
I loved the first two books!! I am dying to read what happens to Kass and Gwen in the third book!! Does Kass allow her to participate?? Please please tell!! I can’t wait to strike of the days until 14th of February 2016. Will it release in India on 14th. Please tell “yes”.
-The atlantis grail diehard fan.
I am definitely going to buy the third book as soon as it releases!!! That is a promise. And dont take long till the fourth book please. i will die of frustration!!
Wait I just saw that it has been delayed for a few weeks!!! Why?? Please I was desperately waiting for the third book!!
Thank you, I am glad you like the books. 🙂
The delay is because of my chronic medical issues that have gotten so severe that I can no longer work fast enough to meet deadlines.
So I am writing the book as fast as I can right now, and when it is done, it will be released.
Oh i am so sorry to hear that!! Tc…
Waiting for the third book desperately!!
Can you give us an approximate date, when it will release??
Thx.
Well take care of yourself !! I definately love your books so stay as healthy as you can and i will eagerly gobble up your new book as soon as it is released
Thank you so much! 🙂
Can you give us an approximate date of when Win will be released, thx!!
I am sorry, I can’t, because I don’t know.
Much love to you, Vera x stay well and know that whilst we are all on tenterhooks for “Win”… your health is more important xx
Aww, thank you so much!! 🙂
I love your books! I am sending wishes of healing of body, mind and spirit for you and your loved ones. Yeah, I am weird that way Also may your parents, of blessed memory, be remembered for a blessing.
Take care,
Ginger McKelvey

Thank you and, wonderful! 🙂
Now I know why you never had Aeson and Gwen kiss! There were many times that I wish they would have, but am glad he persisted in waiting. However, he seems angry with his decision of picking Gwen for his bride. Can’t wait until Book 3 comes out. I plan on buying all the remainder books as they become available! Absolutely LOVE the series. Please get better soon!
Yes, kissing on the mouth has special meaning on Atlantis, and now you know… 🙂
By the way, you can read the first 5 chapters of WIN here on Wattpad right now:
https://www.wattpad.com/story/56620896-win-the-atlantis-grail-book-three-preview
Enjoy, and thanks! 🙂
I love your books!! They are absolutely amazing. I hope you are feeling better. I can’t wait to read win!!
Thank you, and no I am not feeling better (my medical issues are chronic and have been building up for decades, sciatica back pain, carpal tunnel, others that make it hard for me to sit for more than a few minutes without agony), but I am writing as fast as I can. 🙂
I am very sorry to hear that!!
No prob. 🙂
All i can say is that your series is WOW. Its so interesting i was up till 3am reading it. Hope it get to be a movie. Much better than hunger games..
Thank you so much! 🙂
Really appreciate your writing Vera. Here’s hoping you do get much better health wise.. Also love the preview chapters of book 3 on wattpad. Get better first then you can give us the rest. Even though we want it all now. We have no choice but to wait. Will be eagerly looking forward to your updates.
Thank you again so much! 🙂
When is the new release date for Win?
When it’s done. 🙂
That, my dear author, is just mean! We are all chomping at the bit for whatever you can toss us! No pressure….but lots of pressure! We need our fix!
I know, I know, writing as fast as I can… 🙂
Hi Vera,
I was checking to see if “Win” was ready to purchase. So looking forward in reading the next book. Don’t worry about being late in getting the book out. It shouldn’t be rushed and I want you to have time to do your amazing talent with this “Win”. Thank you, Mary
Thank you so much, Mary, writing it as fast as I can! 🙂
I am sorry to hear about your health issues, and I appreciate that you keep plugging away despite chronic pain. Please do not hurry to complete WIN. One of the best things about your books is that your characters are well developed and multidimensional.That takes time, energy and concentration, things that are hard to come by when you don’t feel well. Good luck and thank you for some great binge reading material.
Thank you kindly! 🙂
Hi Vera, your three Atlantis Grail books are fantastic.
I’m currently on tenderhooks reading book 3 Win.
You are a wonderful writer and I’m completely transported into Aeson and Gwens world.
I’m not a teenager anymore, mum of two teenagers myself. I feel that this book would be loved by all ages, by both male and female fans.
I really hope that all 4 books are made into a film, but not chopped up, as some films of books have been done in the past.
Thank you for your wonderful imagination. Don’t rush hour talent, look after yourself first. I can wait…. might not have any nails left!
Best wishes, Rachel McKie from Scotland
Awww, thank you so much for your lovely comment! 🙂
I have devoured Qualify and Compete, I have not enjoyed a book in this manner for several years. I spent two weekends reading them.
I cannot thank you enough for being the creative artist you are and for writing these books for us to enjoy. Its a wonderful story of sacrifice and love. I am eagerly awaiting the third book in the series, and no doubt will
be spending another weekend totally immersed in Atlantis and of course the handsome Prince! – I have to say I do admire the way you have crafted Gwen as a tough smart and resilient young woman. She is a role model for many young ladies. Lets all hope she finds the happiness she so truly
deserves (no spoilers:)
Thank you for the truly lovely comment, I am so glad you are en joying the books! 🙂
Vera
Hi Vera, I’m a big fan of your books, but I was wondering how much “Win” is going to cost?
Thanks so much! 🙂 The retail price for WIN should be the same as COMPETE.
Ok thank you
Hello, I go to school at prairie Hills middle school in hutchinson kansas, and my eigth grade reading class is doing a book Fair, and we would like to know if you could Skype with us by any chance? The book Fair is March 10-17. If you could, it would be much appreciated!!! Please consider! -Christina brown.
Dear Christina,
Thanks so much for asking! I don’t think I’ll be able to, unfortunately, but good luck and have a great time at your book fair! 🙂
Oh, okay. Well thank you for your response, and I hope you’re well soon. I would like to say that I enjoyed your books VERY much! I loved the plot, and characters, and the cliffhanger at the end of the 2nd book absolutely killed me! I cannot wait until the third book is done!
Thanks again for your kind words. 🙂
Hey! I love your novel series soooo much I read the first 2 within a week. I was just curious how much longer the 3rd instalment is going to take to be released? as the antisapation is killing me! thank you (:
Short answer, I don’t know maybe a couple of months. 🙂 Long answer can be found in the new TAG discussion forum: http://atlantisgrail.proboards.com/
I am so sorry you’re dealing with chronic pain, and I feel for you during this deadline.
I’m sure It’s hard knowing that no amount of encouragement from your readers will make a disabling condition less disabling. So from one person in pain to another, I hope this deadline doesn’t make things worse for you.
Take care of you.
Thank you so much for your kind words and your understanding. 🙂
Vera
Hi Vera,
Good books. I read a lot of books and it was easy to get into them. I could read them over and over again. Very well written. Worth the read. Looking feared to more of your books.
I am looking forward to WIN.
Thank you so much! 🙂
Will Win ever be available on Kobo? I have been waiting for so long to buy the third book in The Atlantis Grail series and Kobo still doesn’t have it.
That’s because Win is still not done! When it’s done it will be available everywhere, including Kobo.
For now, read the first half of Win here on Wattpad:
https://www.wattpad.com/story/56620896-win-the-atlantis-grail-book-three-preview
🙂
Really enjoying this series just read book 1 and 2 and am very excited for book 3 thank you for the captivating story.
Thank you! So glad you like! 🙂
Vera
Hey Vera I hope your book comes fast! I have been pulling my hair since February when I finished Compete. But do take care of your health! I read the first 26 chapters on wattpad!! It says it is a draft. Does that mean that when the book is actually released there may be a few changes in the chapters posted on wattpad? Loved your books! Your book should be made into a movie and I’ve already asked on the website link posted in March to make your book a movie! Cant wait to see the movie flourish!
Thanks! 🙂 Working on finishing WIN as fast as I can…
Yes, of course there will be changes. I am only posting the raw uncorrected first drafts on Wattpad.
The final published books are edited, cleaned up and have more/new/revised/improved details. It’s a natural part of the revision process when you finalize a book.
A movie is completely out of my control — only YOU, the readers can make the books into a big enough bestseller that movie studios notice and express interest.
Hello Vera, I can truly say that I devoured both Qualify and Compete. I read them both in a day and a night. It has been a long time since books grabbed me so that I couldn’t stop reading them. Thank you for a wonderful trip to another time and place. I can’t wait to continue the journey.
You are very welcome! So glad you enjoyed! 🙂
When is win coming out?
I am still working on it, hoping to be done with WIN in a few weeks. The book was delayed due to my medical issues.

Hi Vera! I just had to write and say I LOVE this series. I got the first book for free – thank you!- and bought the second book right after I finished the first. Finished both in two days.
I was alternately thrilled and then devastated to find out that the book won’t be out for a couple of weeks, but your health is more important!
Guess I’ll have to content myself with the preview…
I don’t think I’ve been this excited about a book since the Hunger Games.
Thank you so much! So glad you are enjoying! 🙂

Ms. Nazarian,
I recently encountered your first book, “Qualify.” Like everyone else, I absolutely devoured the first two books. As soon as I finished the first one, I had to buy the second one. I read it even faster than the first one. They are actually too good because I feel that reading them so fast, I must surely be missing things!
I am currently unemployed. To that end, I have time on my hands, and would be very happy to come to you and help you by typing for you while you dictate. =) Please take care of yourself and looking forward to books 3 and 4.
A fan forever.
Thanks for your kind wishes. 🙂
Like everyone else can’t wait for release of ‘win’.qualify and compete were excellent reads.Haven’t read anything as good since game of thrones series or hunger games trilogy.be well soon Vera
Thanks so much! 🙂
Well, into the thick…. read the first two books. On my way to Ottawa from Orlando I decided to read something light. I kept asking myself, “Why are you reading this.” Like Gwen, I was a “browner”. Not a true browner though…. I was a bit of a toughie. OK, first book, half way through I gave up questioning my choice of reading material and went all out. One thing…. killing kids was not sitting well with me. Now book two: It’s a bridge to book three. Interesting on the dance theme. In real life, my young and beautiful French teacher broke me out of my shell to dance. OK… now book three. ???? Where???? What!!!! Now I feel guilty… take care, get well, don’t worry about the book. Afterall, we have Donald Trump to entertain us. What a movie that would make!! PS… I’m Canadian and would love to see more “Canadian” content in your book. Why? Well, read this to begin: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0084ZHNT4/ref=kinw_myk_ro_title. Just a tip of the iceberg, kiddo.

HEY very,
Just reread Compete Qualify and the 26 chapters of Win on watt pad in 2 days I was in serious withdrawal. I REALLY MISS THE WEEKLY CHAPTERS on wattpad and hope you are feeling better and can finish Win and Survive soon. I tell all of my friend aquaintences and their teens about this series, it is just that good. Hope to see a lot more writing out of you in the future.your Witt and artistic flair for drawing the reader in is unparalleled by many writers I am a true fan.
Best wishes and better health, Jill
Thanks, Jill, writing a fast as I can! 🙂
Sorry didn’t spell check should say Vera
As a nearly 40-year-old man I absolutely hate the fact that I loved your first two books in this series. I really shouldn’t. These should be just for teen girls. But, I can’t help myself. They’re like a guilty pleasure. Like listening to Taylor Swift…I don’t want to like it, but I do! I keep checking the website, hoping that the next one is done. Alas! Sorry to hear about medical issues!
I would read on wattpad, but waiting for the next chapter would be worse than waiting for the next book.
Feel better!
LOL and thanks, Greg!
Let me tell you a secret…. Although these books are “intended,” or better to say, marketed for young adults, they really are cross-genre — equal parts science fiction, action adventure, romance, and ancient historical mystery/thriller for all ages.
So you’re okay to read and enjoy!
Yes, it’s the other 3 parts that draw me in so well. But when my wife looks at it she teases me for liking a romance book.
Oh well, I guess she wins this round…
Tell her she needs to read the books too! 🙂
Oh, I have. I think she wants to wait until the series is done so she can read them all at once.
Hello Vera,
I hope you’re feeling better. I am a freelance writer (newspaper, not book) and am totally addicted to the Atlantis Grail series.
I’ve read the 26 chapters on Wattpad (What an amazing place to find new writers, thanks for that) and am counting the days until I can buy “Win” and have it for my own. Of course as soon as I read the last page of that one I’ll want more.)
You have created a relate-able, multi-layered heroine and her fiance, who is a dream.
Just wanted to say hi and tell you I’m 61 and love your books.
Thanks so much.
Thank you so much for the lovely comment, Sandi, so glad you’re enjoying the books! 🙂
Vera
It’s the end of the month, is it done is it done? Lol I’m on pins and needles.
I wish…
I agree with everything Sandi Davis says.have also finished my 26 win chapters.i’m 64years old but can still appreciate a divine hero☺
Awww, thank you so much! 🙂
If there are 26 chapters on wattpad, about how many will be in the final book? I’m trying to decide whether to read them or wait for the book to come out. I don’t want to leave off on a huge cliffhanger!!
The finished book is going to be the longest one of the series yet, with anywhere from 50 to 60 chapters. I’m currently writing chapter 36, but this second portion of the book has tons of action, so it should go faster.
Can you confirm if you will be releasing win? Previous predicted release was end of June 2016. Thanks, Rachel
Check the official website:
http://www.TheAtlantisGrail.com
I’m really looking forward to the release of Win!! I read the first two books in two days and just couldn’t put it down. Hands down my favourite series ever.
Thank you for sharing your ability to make me feel so strongly for the characters and the events. Never have I felt so euphoric, elated, nervous, disappointed and on the verge of tears, these books are truly amazing. You do an amazing job of conveying what characters are truly feeling in a round about way that causes me to have an strong gut feeling about what each character is going through.
Thank you for sharing your gift, and I look forward to finishing Win in another sleepless day
Thank you very much, so glad you like! 🙂
Vera
I honestly loved your books because I was in the book-hole and desperately needed a new book to read on my kindle because all the books I liked are all ready finished like the Percy Jackson series, Divergent series, The hunger games, and life as we knew it… But one day I was looking on Amazon and saw Qualify for free and just had to purchase it and Compete. To my surprise, they both gave the said series “a run for their money.” Also I thought it wouldn’t be good because of the saying “you get what you pay for” but you made the series so well… You proved me wrong and I’m so glad you did… Is there any progress on win yet?
Thanks so much, so glad you enjoyed! 🙂

Hello Vera,
I did not know you as writer until Amazon suggested QUALIFY. I was hooked in just a few pages. COMPETE same thing.
Looking forward to WIN!!
Frits
Thanks so much! So glad you are enjoying the books! 🙂
Vera
Great read, don’t rush book three and spoil it though its publication is eagerly awaited.
Thank you so much!
Dear Vera,
I’m re-reading the first two books again (procrastinating from the pile of study I’m meant to be doing..), and I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed them. The world is richly detailed, and as a fellow geek/nerd, I really appreciated the factual/fictional amalgam that is consistently scientific enough to make everything just. About. Plausible. I ended up spending an evening researching where we’re currently at re: space travel, and it seems like Elon Musk is working on it, but anti-gravity dances are still a few years into the future..
Anyway, thank you, and I am excited to see how the story unfolds.
Regards,
Ella
Ps, could you please give Dawn a girlfriend? Having a queer woman of colour is awesome, and I know Gwen is super busy with DRAMA right now (the training! The suspense!), but on the reread of Qualify, I could totally see her and Laronda together. She never does specify which gender Atlantean has ‘“sleek, oozing, tight booty hotness” when she checks them out at the pool 😉
Thanks so much, so glad you like! 🙂
Yes, Dawn is definitely getting a girlfriend, but Laronda is straight and promised to another person — we are discussing all of this and other spoilers in the TAG fan discussion forum: http://atlantisgrail.proboards.com/
Come on down and join us! 🙂
Vera
Gaaaaaaaah!! On my way there now!! 😀
Great! 🙂
Still waiting anxiously for release of Win, but understand totally the issue of medical problems delaying your incredible writing. Could voice entering help? Not trying to rush you, but however soon you can finish 3 and 4, and get started on the rest of the series. Judging by the letters I have read and the knowledge that only about 0.1% will ever write and comment, this series could easily extend beyond my lifetime (as has Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp series). I am hopeful that as long as I have wonderful books to read I will keep going forever LOL. And yours are some of the best I have read, surpassing even Heinlein’s writings. If you get out in the midwest for signings I would love to meet you in MN summers or extreme South TX in winter.
Thanks so much! 🙂 I do hope it’s clear this is only a 4-book series, although there will be some additional novellas from different characters’ POVs to fill in some of the blanks, coming later.
But the main story ends with book #4, SURVIVE. I don’t believe in dragging out stories gratuitously long after everything is over that needs to be over. One of the joys of reading is that there will be a satisfactory conclusion, after all. 🙂
Thanks again! 🙂
Vera
Hey Vera,
I have already written to you a couple of times in February. That time I was eagerly waiting for the books and kept checking the website….. It has been months. I understand you have your medical issues so I’m totally okay if you take more time. Don’t rush up, make the book the best……. I have read the first 26 chapters on Wattpad. AMAZING!!! Just to VERAfy(pun):P is it just a pre-edited version or will it come out word to word, fullstop to fullstop, the same way when you release the book or will you make some changes to it when it is released?? Just to let you know our school featured one of your quotes as the main TAGLINE for our School Annual Day. Hope to hear about the release of WIN soon….
It is a first draft, and labeled as such.

Thanks.
Wow Vera, I love this book series! It meets my taste of my favorite genres! I CANNOT wait for Book three! It keeps me up late at night and I finished both of your books within 45 minutes on eBook and its just amazing.
Thanks so much! 🙂
As an aspiring fantasy author, you have set the bar very high. I am also an English second language teacher, a violinist and artist. When you described language in Compete, I was brought to tears. I was profoundly touched. I have just finished your Cobweb Bride Trilogy and again…amazing. I am transported by your books. Thank you. I am inspired. I only hope one day I can craft a story that is as much art as it is the written word as you do. I am looking forward to Win & Survive.
Thanks so much for your lovely comment! 🙂
the books are awesome! can’t wait for book 3. but please, don’t take this the wrong way but can you please tone down the romance (a little bit)? Please?
The romance is as much at the heart of the story as any of the other elements. You are asking me to tone down the story itself, and I cannot do that. See the first 26 chapters of WIN here and decide for yourself if maybe you need to stop reading the series: https://www.wattpad.com/story/56620896-win-the-atlantis-grail-book-three-preview
Vera I check every couple of days to see if there is any news on Win yet I’m in serious withdrawal here. But seriously hope you are doing better kept working on your health, I had knee replacement surgery a few weeks ago, I’m limited to my mobility right now and don’t know what I would do if it were my arms or hands so take care and feel better. One of your loyal fallow er Jill
Thanks! 🙂
By the way, I post regular wordage updates on the progress of writing WIN over at Facebook and at the TAG discussion forum:
http://atlantisgrail.proboards.com/
Any book that can keep me awake in the middle of the night on a work day, is well worth it. Any book that can make me dream of the characters and their actions is doubly worth it. Thank you for Atlantis Grail. I am dying to read WIN and SURVIVE, but I’d rather you take your time because of your health and get yourself better, so you do not loose the punch you delivered in the first two books. Love your style of writing. I got the first book for my 13yr old seeing she is in the QUALIFY range. By the way, I am also young at heart and book should also be aimed at those of us that are above the qualification range. Keep it up
Thanks so much! 🙂
Hi,
Continuing to wait for your next book , Win. I keep checking back , but it isn’t out yet , obviously . I know you have been going through an awful lot this past year and hope that you are both doing and feeling better . I hate to bother you , but do you have any idea at this point when your next book in the series will be available ? Please take care of yourself .
Melissa
Thanks, and all latest status updates are posted on the official TAG series website: http://www.TheAtlantisGrail.com
If I had any more information I would post it there under “News and Announcements.”
Hi, I read both of the atlantis grail books last summer. I read each one in a day I loved them so much.
I recommended the book to my family and friends. Everyone who has read it has loved the series so much. My sister was very upset that I let her read the first 2 before the 3rd one was released, she enjoyed them immensely!
I would say this series is the best series of books I’ve read. Your style of writing grips you and you feel like you are actually there.
Thank you so much for such an amazing book series. Can’t wait for the next one to come out!
Kate
Thanks so much, so glad you enjoyed the books! 🙂 I am still working on WIN, book three, hoping to be done with it soon. The book was delayed due to my medical issues. See the official TAG series website and Facebook for regular progress updates.
Meanwhile, you can read the first 33 chapters of WIN (free advance preview) right now on Wattpad:

I hope you’re fully well again.
Thanks so much!
when is book for going to be previewed on wattpad
Which book?
Survive (book #4) ???
Yes??
oh so sorry your survive book four of the atlantis grail I am soooooo loving your writing
Thanks! Aiming to have it done by the end of 2018 or early 2019.
LOVE your Atlantis series! I have all and I am avidly waiting for Survive. I even have my husband interested in this series. Great work! Thank you!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Would love to see this book made into a movie.. It is a great series. The only problem is I cannot stay out of it until it is done.. 2 days. Excited for book 4 a year is a long wait..
I too would love to see ti made into a movie! 🙂 However, movies are completely out of my control, but in your hands — if enough readers buy the books, spread the word to their friends, and make the series into a bestseller, then film studios might show interest and consider it. That’s how it works.
I love your books, I’ve read the Cobweb Bride series and the 3 books of Atlantis Grail. I am 70 years old and love the story of Gwen and Aeson. The stories are exciting and very imaginative. Keep up the good work, and good health.
Thank you so much! 🙂
I am a little over half way through Win and cannot wait for Survive. Thank you so much for this series. Love it!!
Thanks so much! 🙂 Glad you like!
Love the “Atlantis Grail” series. Please hurry with the 4th installment. I am very anxious to see what happens to all of the characters.
Thanks so much!
Yes, I saw the last typos after posting…
Autocorrect changed Aeson to arson at the end
“…offering me her life ”
was supposed to read
“…offering me her very life”
There was an extra word left in – he – before Aeson’s name earlier where some text was changed.
and. “…swear yourself in loyalty…”
should have read
“swear yourself in loyalty to me…”
Still, you got the idea.
I have more if you like it.

I enjoyed reading the series with my daughter. Waiting for the last book will be hard! I’m guessing at what some of the reveals will be, wondering which earlier tidbits will be explored and which were just teasers that don’t lead anywhere. Talking with Any and Gennio she learned that zero G and alcohol don’t mix for example. Will that come up later, and how? Bullets go harmlessly through pegasi, but they eat light. What about lasers? Will the origin of the Kasseopei talents remain a mystery lost to history, or is it connected to her own?
I can’t wait to read the last book, and entertain myself in the meantime by coming up with my own versions of some likely scenes.
Thanks, and glad you enjoyed, and you certainly don’t need to speculate about the story alone, that’s what the official TAG fan forum is for.
Come and chat with other readers. It’s lots of fun and all these topics are discussed, including juicy speculations and spoilers. http://atlantisgrail.proboards.com/
Hope to see you there! 🙂
I absolutely love this series. I have 2 sisters now ‘hooked’ and we are all anxiously awaiting book 4. We also think they would make a great film series! Fingers crossed!
Thank you so much, so glad all of you are enjoying! 🙂
Vera
I have spent many late nights staying up to read this series but it is so worth it. Can’t wait for book 4 survive. I would love to also see a back story and happy ending for Xelio.Vera you are such a talented writer could see this in a movie although I would be afraid that it wouldn’t do the writing justice
Thanks so much! 🙂 There will be plenty of novellas after the main 4-book series is done. Please visit http://www.TheAtlantisGrail.com for more info!
Thank you so much for these preview chapters Vera! They are wonderful and I’m both excited and dreading the finish of the final book. I love it but will hate to see the story end.
You are very welcome! 🙂
I loved the first three Atlantis Grail books! Any projected timeframe for the release of Survive? Thank you so much for this story! Also, I noticed in the previous comment that there were preview chapters released. Where can I find them? I’ m having withdrawal! Thanks!

The three books were awesome! Your books are my favourite! I am waiting for the 4th book!
Thank you!
I love this series! I am almost done with Win. I hope they make a movie out of your series. Looking forward to the next book!
Thank you!
I love the Atlantis Grail books! Beautifully written and Edited to perfection. The character development is fantastic. I named my King Charles Spaniel “Aeson”. Which I learned is Greek for handsome or popular boy. I am very eager for Book 4. This series could go on forever. Thank you Vera for a job well done!
Aww, thanks so much, and love that you named your puppy Aeson! 🙂 Have you ben to Wattpad to read the first 5 chapters of Survive? Visit the official website for the Atlantis Grail for more info…
Please give us a small hint for Survive.
Just finished reading the 3rd book. It was just as amazing as the first two. Any idea when the 4th one, and hopefully not the last one, will be out?
Thank you so much for asking. All your questions are answered on the official TAG website, see Novellas:
http://www.TheAtlantisGrail.com
Such a huge fan nothing is filling the big Atlantis grail void since I am waiting for the final instalment. When will you be putting more chapters on Wattpad? I have started reading the books again since nothing really compares.
Thank you so much!
I’ve been reading your Atlantis Grail Series. These books are so inspiring. I love the bond between the four Gee siblings and their parents. I love the way that you craft your books in such a way that education, intellect, wisdom and the such are so highly praised and made to be desirable to young people. I love the aspects of all the Earth Children striving to be and do their best, and to overcome all obstacles. Reading these books has made me feel sharper and more aware of my own strengths and lack of. I’ve been inspired to work harder at things I fail at. I hope this effect continues for me.
Your characters are so relate-able and inspiring. I especially love Gwen and her ingenuity. I had a long period of time where I started to hate Aeson, but you’ve made it so clear in book 3 why he acts the way he does in books 1 and 2. I now, utterly adore him.
Consider me a huge fan of your works. Thank you for all your hard work as an amazing author and your generous spirit in sharing so much with us. I hope these books are adopted for a movie or TV series. I know that’s every author’s dream and they can’t all have that wish fulfilled, but your series deserves it (even though I know a movie could never do any of your books justice). So many beautiful descriptions and such a clever and creative world you’ve created in Atlantis and their tech.
I wish desperately that I could let all three of my children read your books, but feel I can’t for a few reasons. I love that you omit fowl language and only imply it. That’s so wonderful to me. The series has too many libido inducing scenes (which, though I understand the purpose and need for) I wouldn’t want my teen and preteens to have to be influenced by just yet. Not sure when I’ll change my mind on that one, as I so dearly wish they could be inspired by these books the way I have.
Thank you again for these stories. You have an incredible mind and imagination. From me, you have much love and appreciation for your works!
I have so many fan questions about the book! Maybe for another time. 🙂

Thank you so much, so glad you enjoyed the TAG series books! Have you read the preview chapters of SURVIVE on Wattpad?
http://survive.atlantisgrail.com
🙂
I have read the previews of survive on Wattpad, up to 19 chapters and the previous books I keep revisiting. Will you be putting anymore preview chapters of survive on Wattpad soon?
Thank you so much, so glad you enjoyed the TAG series books! 🙂 At this point the Free advance preview on Wattpad is done, and you’ll need to wait for the final book to be finished and published. I am aiming to be done writing SURVIVE by September and releasing by November 2019.
In the meantime, come on down to the new Facebook fan group where we’re talking about it!
