Reddit mentions of The Atlantis Gene: A Thriller (The Origin Mystery, Book 1)

Check out The Atlantis Gene by A.G. Riddle it's a really fun sci-fi adventure concerning this incident.

There is a scene like that the Atlantis plague book series by a.g. riddle. I don't think it's until the 3rd book though and it's a smaller part of the overall story. I enjoyed the series though. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00C2WDD5I/ref=dbs_a_w_dp_b00c2wdd5i

the entire basis for the two novels The Atlantis Gene and The Atlantis Plague

Have you read The Atlantis Gene (Book 1) and the Atlantis Plague (Book 2)?

I actually just finished them.

TL;DR - You need to have a story a lot of people think is good. Your story will become more visible as people pump you up with good reviews. That's how horribly stupid books still get attention: somehow they still get positive reviews.

Long story:

I don't know how some of the self-published authors on Amazon make any money. I'm not at all published, and am nowhere near it yet, so what the hell do I know, right?

However, as a reader of fiction, I can say that I have read PLENTY of dumb books by unknown authors who somehow make it into the Amazon Books of the Month, or books that go on clearance sales. I think the secret behind it is the number of 4 or 5-star Amazon reviews received versus the total number of reviews. If 90%+ of readers give it a 4 or 5 star, and there are 800 reviews, then I think Amazon's super smart computer algorithm guesstimates that the book will generate some revenue. Then the book gets bumped to the top in terms of advertising and running deals on the book.

However, I don't understand how most of the 4 or 5 star reviewers think. Are these people able to tie their own shoes in the morning? An example is the book by self-published author A.G. Riddle The Atlantis Gene: A Thriller. It has a TON of awesome acclaim, averaging 4 stars with 8,000+ reviews. I thought that this must be a great story. It's a conspiracy, science fiction, has historical references...great! I read the whole damn thing and I just couldn't see it. I didn't see what they were talking about. How did this guy get up in the ranks???? Somebody must have already passed out the magic koolaid and I showed up late to the party after it ran out. Or maybe I'm in the minority. Who knows.

I'm not going to buy the other 2 or 3 books in his series. I guess I get what I pay for when I make a $1.99 purchase.

The Atlantis Gene by A.G. Riddle looks really interesting. Thanks for the contest!

This is a good trilogy. It is a thriller and some sci-fi throw in.

Anyone ever read The Atlantis Gene series? It's fictional but has a lot of these theories in it about Antarctica and the global elite and ancient beings. Fun read.

Okay, this is a bit of a pet peeve for me; please excuse me. The idea that humans originated occurred on another planet is implausible. This idea might have sold back in the Golden Age of science fiction, but based on the current state of science, it's naive.

Aliens could have visited us at sometime in the past, and perhaps kidnapped our ancestors & ported them off-world. Damocles by SG Redling.

Or they might have messed with our ancestor's genes here on Earth The Atlantis Gene by AG Riddle.

But we didn't evolve on another planet. We are too similar to our closest relatives, and the fossil and genetic evidence of our Earth origins is too overwhelming to suggest xenogenetic origins.
