Using a cutting-edge technology called DHI - which stands for both Disney Host Interactive and Daylight Hologram Imaging - Finn Whitman, an Orlando teen, and four other kids are transformed into hologram projections that guide guests through the park.
The new technology turns out, however, to have unexpected effects that are both thrilling and scary. Soon Finn finds himself transported in his DHI form into the Magic Kingdom at night. Is it real? Is he dreaming?
Finn’s confusion only increases when he encounters Wayne, an elderly Imagineer who tells him that the park is in grave danger. Led by the scheming witch, Maleficent, a mysterious group of characters called the Overtakers is plotting to destroy Disney’s beloved realm, and maybe more.
This gripping high-tech tale will thrill every kid who has ever dreamed of sneaking into Walt Disney World after hours and wondered what happens at night, when the park is closed.

"Loved it"
I loved knowing the Magic Kingdom. I felt like I was there again. I would recommend this book for all ages.
"New to Kingdom Keepers"
The ending left open questions. I guess the author was expecting this to be a series
I started reading this because my wife and boys liked the print version. It is definitely light listening. Don't expect the details to match the Disney parks exactly. In the same way that the technology is fictional, the author also takes liberties with the location.
"The reader is a little boring! The book is good."
Yes to the book no to the reader!
I enjoyed the book. I felt like I was in the park!
Yes. I can't wait until the 6th book is out!
read or listen to the all in order!
"Loved it!"
This book was great! It's definately a book I can have both my children listen to as well which is really important. They love audiobooks. It made me think about Disney World in a new light which is one of my favorite places to go on vacation. I can't wait to listen to the second book!
"Excellent New Series"
It is an interesting story because it is about a place the readers may have been and can see in their minds. It was well read with good voices.
It was a different type of book to others I have read.
I already got the second book in the series and liked it too. I am waiting on the third one now.
"Okay Story, Poor Preformance"
I think children about 10ish would like this book more, or anyone who really likes Disney.
I would recommend the book, but not this performance. It's an okay book,and there aren't any major problems with the writing.
The voices of many of the characters are really annoying. Amanda's voice is fine, but pretty much all of the other kids sound annoying, especially Dillard (I think that's his name.) Dillard sounds like he has a lisp, is always congested, and I think I could do a better job, and I'm female. Also, Aunt Jelly has the most stereotypical "old black lady" voice I've heard in a while.
The book was fine. I got what I paid for. It was very Disney. I recognized the rides they were talking about, which was cool.
Nope. The book is pretty decent, but I don't really like this performance. The voices are pretty bad, the wrong words are emphasized, and a lot of sentences sound like questions.
"A nice story for everyone...A must for Disney fans"
I'm a fan of Walt Disney and try to plan a trip there at least every year or two. This is a great story for any young adult (or old ones too) who like adventure. I thoroughly enjoyed the descriptions of the WDW attractions and the behind the scenes areas, even if some of them don't exist outside the story...as far as I know anyway... I'm definitely looking forward to the rest of the series.
