Amulet Keepers

by Michael Northrop Narrated by Ramón de Ocampo

Overview

Strange things are happening in London. Red rain is flooding the streets. People are going missing. And someone's opening graves in Highgate Cemetery . . .



Only Alex and his best friend, Ren, suspect the truth: a Death Walker, a powerful ancient Egyptian evil, is behind the chaos. Their quest to bring him down takes them from New York to London, and from the land of the living to the deep underground tombs of the long dead. Will they be in time to stop the Death Walker before he gets too powerful . . . or will the tombs claim them, too?



Listen to the book, and then go online and let the excitement continue! Join Alex and Ren in protecting powerful amulets. Players will delve deep into the pyramids and tombs where they will create, share, and play - creating tombs and traps of their own!
