Finn was hired so Disney Hologram Imaging could use his
likeness as a Disney Host Interactive. The
Imagineers created a holographic tour guide using him and 4 other kids as
models. Lately Finn has been having bad
dreams and one night he wakes up in Disney World and meets a mysterious man who
tells him that it is the responsibility of all the DHIs to save from the
Overtakers. Finn gets shot at by pirates
explores the magic kingdom at night and with the four other DHIs tries to solve
the mystery of the stonecutters quill.
I really like Disney, the parks the movies, all of it. I have Disney purses, and jewelry and I go to
the park several times a year, I got to the premieres, and events. That being said, I was very disappointed with
this book. The characters were flat and
the only one I had any feelings for was Dillard who plays a less than minor
role in the book. I finished the book because I wanted to include it in my
digital record. Kingdom Keepers feels like
a story that was patched together to market all things Disney. It is even less substantial than a hologram. Ridley
Pearson has some incredible material and the opportunity to use Disney’s
characters is amazing. So my question is
really, “Wow, how did that happen?”
