Leo Brent Robillard
Author and Educator
"Leo Brent Robillard's The Road to Atlantis is a poignant, resonant tale of a family's dissolution following the death of their daughter. In gorgeous, gripping prose, he explores how individuals cope with tragedy and how grief sifts through the generations until it can finally settle and heal. This is a novel that echoes with human emotion and meaning and that deserves to be read."

The Road to Atlantis -- Book Review
Quill & Quire says "This novel packs more emotional wallop than many books twice or three times its length, which is a testament to Robillard's surgically precise prose...This makes The Road to Atlantis a welcome rarity: a multi-generational family saga that zips along at the pace of a thriller."
