About this ebook
Fans of Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson and the Olympians and Peter Lerangis’s Seven Wonders series will embrace this epic adventure in a rollicking new series by a New York Times bestselling author.
Will Wilder didn’t mean to unlock his otherworldly gift. But that is exactly what happens when Will “borrows” a sacred relic believed to protect the town of Perilous Falls for nearly a century. Even though his intentions are good, the impulsive twelve-year-old unwittingly awakens an ancient evil endangering all of Perilous Falls.
As boats sink and hideous creatures crawl from the rising waters, it is up to Will to confront a nightmarish enemy and set things right before it is too late. Along with his sweet—if lethal—great-aunt Lucille, the curator of a museum of supernatural artifacts, Will proves that the actions of one twelve-year-old boy can change the world.

This adventurous story will not only entertain children but adults will also be anxiously awaiting the next book in this book series. I hope it is made into a movie. What a fun, scary and "I can hardly wait" to read the next book" time I had reading it. Hurry up Raymond, I've got 9 grandchildren I am sharing this adventure with and we are anxiously awaiting what is on the next horizon with our new friend Will Wilder and company .
