It's true what they say, you're never too old for Disney. (on a side not as I type this I'm listening to my Disney Pandora station) In his Kingdom Keepers series Ridley Pearson tells what what happens when Disney World shuts down and the characters come to life.
In the fourth installment of the series the Kingdom Keepers must foil the latest Overtaker (Disney Bad Guys) plan to control the parks and the magic in the parks. With Malificent and Chernabog under lock down the other overtakers are plotting a jailbreak. The Kingdom Keepers have to figure out what the plan is and put a stop to it before Malificent and CHernabog can get free.
The thing I love about this series is that is takes the Disney Magic we all grew up with and brings it to life in a new way. It's the character of Disney mixed with the ideas of "Night at the Museum" We all wonder what it would be like if the Disney parks came to life, Pearson lets us in.
Even as a twenty-three year old with a tendency to lean to toward mysteries I love these book. The characters are believable. They're not superheros who continually save the Disney parks from Malificent and the like, they're just typical high school kids dealing with everyday problems and have to use their abilities as DHI's to save the day. Pearson has created a wonderful world where Disney Magic really does exist and the characters we love and villains that scare us come alive.
