Keepers Of The Labyrinth

Courage is tested, myths come to life, and long-held secrets are revealed Lilith Bennette runs at midnight. She scales walls in the dark and climbs without a harness. She hopes that if she follows exactly in the steps of her strong air force pilot mother, she’ll somehow figure out the mystery of her mother’s death—and the reason why her necklace of Greek symbols has been missing ever since. So when Lil is invited to Crete for a Future Leaders International conference, the same conference her mom attended years ago, she jumps at the chance to find some answers. But things in Melios Manor are not what they seem. Lil finds herself ensnared in an adventure of mythological proportions that leads her and her friends through the very labyrinth in which the real Minotaur was imprisoned. And they’re not in there alone. What secrets does the labyrinth hold, and will they help Lil find the truth about her mother? This book is perfect for older fans of Percy Jackson and the Olympians and the Heroes of Olympus--and anyone who wants to find out the true story behind the magic of the Greek gods. Praise for KEEPERS OF THE LABYRINTH: "Secret societies, mythology, and puzzles worthy of a Dan Brown novel all figure prominently in this thriller....There is much to recommend this book: all the protagonists are empowered female characters, it explores the idea that behind the stories of classical Greek mythology is a history of real people, and it is filled with exciting action."--VOYA "Secret societies, Greek mythology, and a group of strong female characters are all wrapped up in a mystery which will hit the mark with readers who have finished Rick Riordan’s “Percy Jackson” series."--School Library Journal "Greek mythology provides the frame for this exciting amalgam of action, friendship, and girl-detective fiction."--Booklist

Welcome to Zephyrus: the isolated town in the valley by the ocean. My name is Cid. Let me show you around. All the people here in this deranged fantasyland are unknowingly part of an elaborate game being played on them by the elites in the mega-metropolis, Tartarus, one hundred and eleven forbidden miles away. With one exception: one person who is completely off limits and uninhabitable: his name is Atticus, and he has just arrived. It all begins the morning Lindsay finds him washed up on the beach, with broken pieces of raft adrift in the choppy ocean waters nearby. His sudden and mysterious arrival triggers a wild series of insanely psychotic events. Soon after finding Atticus, Lindsay experiences a glitch in her mind, when she hears a strange mans voice in her head. This frightening malfunction steers her down a long, disturbing path of pain and paranoia, as she curiously follows its eerie trail to the haunting truth within the labyrinth Atticus awakes to find he has no memory of anything prior to his arrival in Zephyrus (other than the thing which followed him). The doctors diagnosis is amnesia, yet there seems to be more to the story than thatthey just dont know what yet. Crooked Council member and psychiatrist, Doctor Lyman, runs a battery of tests on him (while secretly implanting his microchip), before releasing him into the town. Reluctantly, Atticus is sent to live in a halfway house full of addicts and drunks, where he meets his best friend and his lover. But this living arrangement is only temporary. His curiosity and ambition will take him on a twisted journey of no returna kaleidoscopic odyssey with terribly grave consequences. He then sets his sights on finding a way out of the strictly confined town of Zephyrus, and to the neon, futuristic city of Tartarus. And also, to becoming the very first person to successfully surmount the insurmountable Mount Erebusthe schizophrenic, mythological mountain whose summit is perpetually shrouded with clouds. Problem is, wherever he goes, the monster goes too. It follows him around, like a black cloud, infecting everything... Beneath it all, a war is waging: a cosmic showdown between the Dark and the Light: a fight for the throne which Satan currently occupies. A throne usurped from His creator, God, in the last great conflagration. But now the Devils long, treacherous reign is in jeopardy, as forces of the Light are rising up Atticus and Lindsay soon find themselves at the center of it all, in the mind-bending eye of the storm. Both wish to get to the truth, but quickly realize it wont be easy. The terrifying conspiracy keeps getting bigger and bigger, as they fall, further and further down the rabbit hole, each on a dangerous collision course set to crash against the most powerful forces in the universe Sooo, brace yourself, and be warned: you may experience some turbulence. This voyage is not for the faint of heart. And just rememberits only a game.

As the five Kingdom Keepers enter high school, everything is about to change. The Maintenance Base that controls all four parks in Disney World is under attack by the Overtakers, a group determined to change Disney forever. Relationships between the Keepers are no longer as simple as they once were. In fact, nothing is as simple as it once was. An after-hours visit to Typhoon Lagoon is a game changer. The Keepers lose one of their most valuable supporters. But there's work to do . . . The Disney Dream leaves Port Canaveral on an historic cruise to Los Angeles with a special treat in store for guests: the Disney Host Interactive guides are on board. Finn, Maybeck, Charlene, Willa, and Philby join guests as the DHI experience moves to one of the most advanced cruise ships in the world. But all is not right below decks. Strange things are happening. Only the Kingdom Keepers know the truth behind their invitation to be in attendance: nearly every Disney villain is aboard the ship, including Maleficent. The Overtakers have infiltrated the cast and crew. And no oneknows what they have planned. The Dream sets sail filled with enthusiastic guests and crew. But not for long. Maleficent takes over a video screen and warns the guests of trouble to come. With the ship arriving to the beaches of Castaway Cay--its first of many exotic ports of call--the Kingdom Keepers are under attack; back home the Base is threatened and about to fall. The Overtakers have expanded in ways never foreseen, and it's clear they intend to use this element of surprise to accomplish what has eluded them so far: victory. But not if Finn Whitman and friends have anything to say about it.
