Some of the detail work in this story was very beautiful to imagine. That Being said...

Atlantis Rising is supposed to be the story of how the lost city of Atlantis was created. The first two thirds of the book are all about a thief with a serious sweet-tooth. It isn't until about the last third that it picks up and begins the actual creation myth. From there it whizzes through a ton of fine details that will be totally missed if it is not read slowly enough.

All in all, not my thing. it might be yours, though.
