Synopsis

“Open the cover, fasten your seat belt, and get ready for a rip-roaring ride!” —Ridley Pearson, author of the New York Times bestselling series Kingdom Keepers

Will Wilder is back to protect the town of Perilous Falls from another ancient evil—the fearsome demon, Amon, in this series that’s been described as having “shades of Indiana Jones and Percy Jackson” (Booklist).
 
When the storied Staff of Moses—responsible for summoning the plagues of ancient Egypt—vanishes from the museum in Perilous Falls, Will Wilder is suspect number one. Desperate to prove his innocence and stop the thief from unleashing terrors upon the town of Perilous Falls, Will must use his supernatural gift to locate the beast—but it’s nowhere to be found.
 
As the river runs with blood, sharp-toothed frogs surround his home, and clouds of swarming gnats choke the streets, Will must rely on his supernatural ability, everything he learned from his training, and help from his friends, siblings, and Great-Aunt Lucille to find the missing staff and unmask the hidden evil before time runs out for all of them.

“This new Will Wilder tale will have readers itching for adventures of their own.” —N. D. Wilson, author of the acclaimed 100 Cupboards series

Goodreads review by Jamie on February 21, 2019

This book went to a larger and darker place than the first one did and I loved it! We also got more of an idea where the series is going as a whole. There are a total of seven demons that I'm guessing we will see throughout the series. The first was Leviathan and the second was Amon. I'm guessing we......more

4 solid stars! I'd start by saying if only the Peniel museum had CCTVs, they would've solved the roberry right away. LOL. Anyway, I love this more than book one. The themes of anger, control, prudence, and self-mastery are adeptly interwoven in the plot, making the story meaningful, and in effect cap......more
