Exciting news Kingdom Keepers Fans! The Disney saga continues in the upcoming novel, Kingdom Keepers IV: Power Play. Of course, we had to commemorate the premiere of the new Disney novel in style, so we invited acclaimed author Ridley Pearson to Walt Disney World to celebrate the launch of his newest book.
For those of you that are not familiar with the Kingdom Keepers series, here’s a quick synopsis for you: Kingdom Keepers follows five young teens tapped as models for theme park “guides” and find themselves pitted against Disney villains and witches that threaten both the future of Walt Disney World and the stability of the world outside its walls. 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.
Don’t miss the opportunity to meet the acclaimed author of the Kingdom Keepers saga on April 4 & 5, 2011, at Downtown Disney Marketplace and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. To make this special event even more exciting, Walt Disney World has been given the honor of launching Kingdom Keepers IV: Power Play before the national launch of the novel which means Walt Disney World Guests will have the opportunity to get the book the day before it officially releases!
During Ridley Pearson’s special appearances, he will be meeting and greeting Guests, signing copies of Kingdom Keepers IV: Power Play, and even taking time to answer a few of your question about the Kingdom Keepers Series.

I really hope that this book is better than the other 3. I have read all three of them although I was not impressed with any of them, I had to read them because I am such a Disney nut. I am keeping my fingers crossed on this one. I am not hopeful, to be honest, but I have to read it to see what is happening to Wayne.
I missed this by a week, darn. I read this series because I thought it would be a good one to give to my grandson before we surprised the family with a trip to WDW. I enjoyed the series even as an adult. I am glad to see it continueing.
I heart these books! I have never met Ridley Pearson, sadly. Bring a Meet-and-Greet to DL! PLEASE!
Oh my gosh, I am 22 years old and I love these books. I wish I wasn’t away at school, because my other books are back home. Otherwise, my roommate and I would be there in a heartbeat. So excited for the fourth!
I LOVE X 100000000000000000000000 these books!!! I preordered mine for at Christmas! Any news on when disney will start makeing them into a movie?
I thought I was excited when I pre-ordered the book and awaiting its arrival; now I NEED to be a WDW for the Party… OMGosh, how I wish my granddaughter and I could make it…Blair got me hooked on these stories…
Well, I’m finally jealous of Florida. I’ve enjoyed the first thee books, but since live in Anaheim and work at Disneyland, I was hoping that the series would make a transition to include my Resort. If someone gets to meet Mr. Pearson, please mention that there’s a fan in California too, thanks.
We are so excited to be there! I hope we get to meet Ridley Pierson!
So stoked. I am taking the day off work and bringing down 5 former middle school students with me to meet Ridley Pearson.
I am planning on being there on April 8. Will the book still be for sale then?
I would LOVE to attend this and blog about it! My daughter is a huge fan of the books and we are even bigger Disney fans.
Oh, man my daughter is going to freak out! I hope I can help her make it one of these meet-n-greets. She LOVES those books!
