If you read my thead "Read Atlantis To Learn About Lost ???" ... you'll find that the author of the "Atlantis" series believes the show is using his books for story ideas.

The Atlantis-Lost Connection
The Atlantis-LOST connection
1. The first episode and premise of LOST features a plane crash in a remote jungle area. The first Atlantis book in the series features a plane crash in a remote jungle area. Both planes lose radio contact before crashing. The crashes are such that no one should have survived, yet most on board do. Both crashes result in the survivors getting only enough information about their location to realize they’re all ‘lost’. When some of the survivors enter the plane’s cockpit, they find the top of it ripped open. As they check it, someone is immediately pulled from the torn cockpit and killed by an unknown force. The sound of something large moving outside is heard and the survivors flee the cockpit. (The motif of something large and unseen moving through the jungle re-occurs in Lost and in the books).
2. In the second season finale it’s discovered that the island appears to be part of some strange system of planet-wide powerful electromagnetic anomalies. In the book series the gates are part of a system of planet-wide powerful electromagnetic anomalies.
3. Both feature a radio message replaying a cryptic message that in both cases have no apparent power source. The message is thirty years old in the books and sixteen years old in the series.
4. A character hearing voices (Locke) in the series is very similar to a character in the series (Dane) who also hears voices.
5. The survivors in Lost encounter people who should not be there and were not part of the crash—the Others. The survivors in the book encounter people called the Others, who should not be there and were not part of the crash. Both groups of the Others seem to have a strange agenda, not yet spelled out in Lost, but both battling some other unknown force.
6. The survivors on Lost encounter a polar bear on a jungle island. The premise of the books is that there are a series of gates around the world that connect to each other as well as parallel worlds. In all the books there are numerous examples of creatures being where they shouldn’t be.
7. Central to the entire first season has been the discovery of a ‘hatch’. In the books, inside the area where the plane crashes (an ‘island’ of strange activity) there is a ‘gate’.
8. On the island two bodies are found, referred to as the island’s Adam and Eve: in reality they are Amelia Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan. Both characters play a role in the books.
9. One of the survivors in the series turns out to be an undercover CIA plant. One of the characters in the book turns out to be a CIA undercover plant.
10. Some of the survivors spot the remains of a statue as do some of the survivors in the book. The remains of planes, balloons, ships, etc. have also been found through the show, as in the books.
11. In LOST a mysterious black cloud plays a role. In ATLANTIS, the portals in the gates are marked by a black cloud.
12. Relics, such as a slaving ship, from different eras are found on the island. Relics from different eras appear inside the gates in the books.
13. Electronics have a difficult time working in the series. Electronics don’t function inside the gates in the books.
14. People who are dead appear on the island in LOST. People who are dead reappear inside the gates in ATLANTIS.
15. There are additional ‘clues’ and similarities as one goes through the books, which translate directly to the initial seasons of LOST and more that will undoubtedly come up as LOST continues on through future seasons.
