Timlett, Peter Valentine

(1933-    ) UK author whose sf/fantasy Atlantis trilogy – The Seedbearers (1974), The Power of the Serpent (1976) and Twilight of the Serpent (1977) – deals in occasionally occult terms with Atlantis and its fall, moving subsequently to the founding of civilization in Britain by survivors of the collapse, who hope that Atlantean impulses might be preserved on the new Island.
