This is the story of Atlantis, of its high culture and of the people who lived there and loved and fought and died. It is a story of bravery and personal courage, of betrayal and of friendship, in the face of a looming cataclysm... Ea Anki, Lord of Ki, and Lady Anta In-Anna, his wife, find themselves lost in Hyperspace - the Abzu - with their spaceship. They are carried along by a torrent in spacetime, where Ea Anki has a vision of the future: the climate has been changing steadily, for one hundred years. Now, the warmer climate threatens to cause huge melting floods, and he sees a gigantic flood drowning Atlantis, or Atalantash as the Ancients called it! So, he sends Anta to warn Ashan, King of Atlantis, of the threat to his beloved city of learning and of knowledge. And he knows that he must find a way to warn the other Annunaki, in spite of the opposition from a hidden power on Ki...
