ATLANTIS RISES is about how Thulsa Doom raises Atlantis from the ocean depths and it proves to be populated by a bunch of jerks. I have to say this book didn't live up to its potential as I didn't understand why Red Sonja was necessary, why the people followed Thulsa Doom, why Thulsa Doom was worshiping Cthulhu instead of Set, and why they turned against their king among many-many other plot points. It also ended abruptly and in an unsatisfying manner. The art is still lovely but I felt it could have been done better.

I love Red Sonja books and this one had so much potential, I was extremely disappointed by the ending of the story, it felt flat and rushed and while it is an enjoying read to pass time a lot was left to be desired overall.

I'm just so bored with the of Tulsa Doom in Red Sonjas. Make up a new enemy for Sonja, please.

I feel like I was missing something. I think there are parts to the conflict between Red Sonja and Thulsa Doom that I am missing. I need to go back and find the earlier parts of this arc. Still fun, though.
