The book I'm reading is called Dark Passage. It is the 6th book in the Kingdom Keepers series. The series is by Ridley Pearson. The Kingdom Keepers is a group of 3 boys and 2 girls that were models for the DHI's (Disney Host Interactive) that were holographic tour guides through Disney Parks. But when they all had the same dreams with each other that seemed to real to be a dream, they realized that in the night, they crossed over into their holographic selves in the Disney parks. The only way to cross over is a little white controller they always keep with them. If they don't cross over, they are stuck sleeping until they do crossover. During their adventures, they met 2 girls with extraordinary "powers". Jess can see the future through her dreams and Amanda can make things levitate. They, among a couple others (not where the book takes place), are called "Fairly's" (meaning fairly human). The point go the kingdom keepers is to stop the overtakes from taking over the Disney parks. The overtakes are all of the villains Walt Disney ever created (Chernabog, Maleficent, Cruella di Vil, Tia Dalma, just to name a few). They have stopped the overtakers but now they are on the Dream Disney Cruise. Almost every overtaker is on the cruise line, putting everyone's lives in danger. I choose this book because I've loved the series. Even at the beginning of the book, there's action which pulls you in unlike most books where you dread through the beginning of the book. I choose the first book because I was looking into a book to read and I got it for Christmas. I fell in love with it right away and I knew I would continue on with the series
I really see the connection between the book and Disney World. The vivid descriptions of the rides and places they go Into are just like the ones at the actual place. I like how the author uses so much description that I can see everything going on. And when I am in Disney, I always go to where the kingdom keepers were (mostly to just ride the ride). The author shows the connection very well because of all the detail and because he must have been there before because he knows where everything is.
