About the Book
The first book in a new Kingdom Keepers series.
In the near future, in the Epcot of Walt Disney's imagination, sixty thousand people live in a CommuniTree surrounding the forward-looking Walt Disney World theme park. Five unique families are among the residents—and some of the parents were once known as the Kingdom Keepers. Their identities are carefully guarded to raise their children without special treatment; most of the Kingdom Keepers work for the Walt Disney Company and have settled into "ordinary" and rewarding lives. When a messenger carrying a secret communication coincides with both a solar eclipse and Eli Whitman's thirteenth birthday—a few "ordinary" kids are thrust into a battle to save Epcot and find their friend who has mysteriously disappeared. With their friend missing and their parents acting strangely, the Kingdom Kids discover they are in possession of unusual powers as they forge a bond to rescue their friend and uncover the truth about how real magic has entered their lives.
My Take on the Book
I really enjoyed the original series and was excited to see what they would do with this new rendition of the series. You get brand new characters that are the fun, but you also get new Overtakers (along with the old ones as well). You can tell in this first book that the author is setting up the premise for the books to come. You get to see and learn about the creator of the Overtakers and his grandson and you can easily tell that he will be bad news in the future. While this book did not have a lot of Disney characters within it, I know that things will continue to progress in the future and in the end I am really looking forward to seeing what comes next in the series.
