"Atlantis Complex (at-lan-tis kom-pleks) is a psychosis common among guilt riddden criminals, first diagnosedd by Dr. E. Dypess of the Atlantis Brainology Clinic. Other symptoms include obsessive behavior, paranioa, delusions, and in extreme cases mulitple personality disorder"
Artemis is showing multiple of these syndromes at this time. He is a criminal, may or may not be guilt ridden. He is showing obsessive behavior in the number five. He does everything in 5, five steps, talking in sentences that are divisible by five, only wanting 5 people in a room. He also has paranoia, he sent his best friend away because he didnt think that he could trust him. And shortly after they make this conclusion, he develops another personality, a quite funny one in my opinion, he becomes a romantic romeo from the 1800's (funny enough).
Artemis's condition doesn't get any better, and neither does the worlds. A mastermind criminal escapes prision, and Artemis is the only one who can stop him. And he has to do so, while his condition only worsens.
Your post makes your book seem very interesting and suspenful. With great textual evidence to give support and insight into what your saying. I understand most of your post but since I haven't read the book before did Artemis commit a crime or something huge? Also what do you mean by the term romantic Romeo?
