Portis is on a roll thanks to Overlook's rejuvenation of several 
of his older titles in recent months. This 1985 book 
"concerns the establishment of the order of the Gnomons, a secret 
society purporting to teach the hidden knowledge of Atlantis." 
Though LJ's reviewer found the book a tad over the top, he 
commented that "those who enjoy deadpan comedy should get a good 
laugh here" (LJ 10/15/85).
