Lorhen is quite possibly the oldest man alive, one of the Timeless. He can only be killed by losing his head after a heatstroke...and then only to another Timeless.

Lucky to have made it out alive, he is drawn to the archaeologist who found it - only to discover she is another Timeless and one who has a past with Lorhen. Their reunion will be explosive and bittersweet. Shadowed by his friends in enigmatic Keepers, it's up to Lorhen to keep Atlantis below the waves for the good of mankind. Atlantis Fallen is a love letter to Highlander, plain and simple. It's also brilliantly written, and keeps you coming back for more.

A city hidden for five thousand years. A man so ancient his early history is lost to time. A woman who has nothing to lose... Lorhen, oldest and most ruthless of the immortal Timeless, put aside the sword long ago for a quiet life. But peace doesn't last forever, especially for a man whose age can be counted in epochs, and the mortal life he's built unravels as the Keepers, a society of historians who record Timeless lives, learn that he's been hiding in their midst. Then an archaeologist's claims of finding Atlantis brings back millennia-old memories, and Lorhen is drawn unwillingly into intrigues aeons in the making--and deadly enough that he may yet face the heartstrike blow that will unleash his power on the world....

I enjoyed this tale of an immortal from Atlantis getting involved with an archaeological dig into his own past, and finding that past relationships come back to haunt him. Some online reviewers insist that it’s rather closely linked to the Highlander series, but I don’t know that particular show and to me it seemed pretty fresh and interesting; ancient secrets and relationships coming to the surface. Good fun. ( )
