UNDERWORLD weighs in at close to 700 pages, and consists of 30 chapters – truly a daunting prospect for the casual reader (although certainly offering value for money). By searching in the seas around coastal areas, Hancock believes that evidence of these civilisations will come to light. UNDERWORLD is based on the premise that if there was a ‘lost’ civilisation in the depths of antiquity, it is probable that they lived in coastal areas, and would therefore have been inundated by rising sea levels in and after the Ice Age. The book takes the form of a ‘travelogue’, travelling to various parts of the world, discussing historical mysteries and visiting mysterious sites, searching for a lost civilisation…sound familiar? However, this time Hancock moves off land and into the formerly concealed depths of the coastal seas of the world. The reason I sound this warning is because UNDERWORLD (available from Amazon US and UK) is the closest thing (in style at least) that Hancock has done to FOTG.
