Kingdom Keepers VII The Insider

Kingdom Keepers VII The Insider by Ridley Pearson         609 pages

This is the final installment of The Kingdom Keepers series.  Finn, Willa, Maybeck, Philby and Charlene have been called on again to help defend the Disney kingdom from the Overtakers.  This time they are sure that the battle will be worse and final.  Somehow what happens now will decide the outcome of Disney’s magic once and for all.  The trouble is centered in the park that began it all, Disneyland, and the kids have relocated to California physically to help deal with the menace.  With clues from Wayne and help from Amanda and Jess, the five try to come up with a plan that will allow them to defeat the Overtakers, who are being led by Tia Dalma and the Evil Queen from Snow White.  They appear to have released Chernobog and it seems that the only way to defeat them is to somehow recover Mickey Mouse, who apparently was destroyed by the Overtakers years ago.  An exciting finale to the series, fans will probably like this book.  The series should probably be read in order and fans of Disney, adventure, and fantasy will like the series.  I felt like the ending wasn’t wrapped up quite enough for a final book, but perhaps there are plans for a new series based on this one.
