Five Kingdoms: Crystal Keepers by Brandon Mull, Alladin, New York, 2015.
This is the most fascinating book up to this point. The crystal keepers have modern technology, which makes computers possible, and email, and communicating with the earth. In other words it is possible to check on things back home. One of the pretexts of this series, as that people on earth forget about there own kids when they are kidnapped into the five kingdoms. Xeropolis was almost destroyed by a computer that was trying to take over everything. The rogue computer was totally shut off, and thus contained. This book has a major surprise, which I will not reveal, but Cole finds a new friend from home, as he continues his quest to rescue all his school mates who were kidnapped. Another immediate rescue is to find one of the princesses, and restore her powers. However, her powers have been usurped by another computer system, which now wants to take over control of the kingdom. This is a fascinating read. I continue to enjoy this series. I can't read them fast enough.
