Has anyone read the disney book that has been recently realeased, " The Kingdom Keepers" I've read it 3 times and i am still not tired of it. I am really hoping for a sequal. Anyone feel the same?

Here is a little previews I wrote

t is a story of Disney in the near future. Disney is testing out a new program with hologram tour guides in the magic kingdom. 5 Kids who knew nothing about each other were chosen to be these hosts. Now as they go to sleep they are not dreaming.. but waking up inside the park at dark. And as they learn as they go along... tours are not the only things their holograms are doing..

Using cutting-edge technology called DHI (Disney Host Interactive), the Disney Imagineers capture the images and voices of Finn Whitman, a young Orlando teen, along with four other kids, then transform them into hologram projections that guide guests through the park. The new technology turns out, however, to have unexpected effects that are thrilling and scary when Finn finds himself transported into his DHI form at night. Is it a dream or reality? Finn and his four DHI friends must do battle with the evil witch, Maleficent, and her Overtakers in order to save Walt Disney World.

I really liked it until the ending. I didn't think there was very much resolution at the end; it really just stopped. But I guess that really leaves the reader hoping for a sequel.

I thought I would have nightmares about the scene in It's a Small World.
