Jamie is shot,you know how and why, and in his trauma induced stupor he is transported years into the past to take the place of his deceased ancestor in the first battle between the five and the old ones and it is truly an oasis of action to break up the tedium. The climax comes when after Jamie's return to the present he is rejoined with his brother who has been severely mentally altered in his time under Nightrise supervision.

Scott has been tasked with assassinating the president to be and that is the setting of the brother's reunion. Jamie saves the day and the good guys win another battle It's a "to be continued" sort of affair and if you didn't pay attention to the hero's plight you might not notice how he ends up being his brother's keeper. You wouldn't notice how completely incapacitated Scott was and how Jamie went threw all the trials of: getting shot, participating in a battle to decide the world's fate, scrounging for his own survival as well as his brother's.

And how all these have made him along with his powers that much stronger. I like subtlety, a proud book is an easy book, but the lack of thrilling pace, and the detached writing really hurt this book. It was saddening and I really hoped it would bring back memories of Raven's Gate but sadly it came up just short.

The Old Ones are still a threat to the safety of the world, and the five young gatekeepers are the only ones equipped to help. Previously, Matt and Pedro were in Peru attempting to close the second gate. Their attempt failed and Matt was seriously injured.

The adventure continues in a new location - Reno, Nevada. A small, rundown theater is hosting a performance called The Circus of the Mind. The featured act involves twins named Jamie and Scott. They amaze the audience by reading each others' minds. No one seems to know the secret of the trick. Actually, the secret is, there is no secret. They really do read minds and not just each others'.

Readers will soon guess that Jamie and Scott are the next two of the special "five. When the evil corporation, Nightrise, becomes involved, it is clear that the Old Ones' power still reaches around the world. When Scott is kidnapped by Nightrise and taken to an isolated juvenile detention facility in the desert, Jamie begins his rescue attempt with the help of Alicia McGuire.

She wants inside the prison as much as Jamie because she suspects her son has been kidnapped, as well. Nightrise seems to be making it a habit to kidnap teens with various "special" abilities. Could they be looking for the five young gatekeepers? Horowitz thrills readers with kidnapping, adventures in the present day world, a world 10, years in the past, and the dream world Matt became familiar with in the first books.

There are shape-changers, fire-riders, and mutilated humans to be battled. Some might find the story filled with twists and turns a bit confusing, but fans of the earlier books will be pleased with the surprises Horowitz has hidden in this new episode.

The "to be continued Jul 04, Erika rated it it was amazing Shelves: horror , supernatural , favorites , ya , series. So, this is the third book of one of my favorite series, The Gatekeepers!

When I finished reading Evil Star , I was a bit dissapointed, not with the story, but with some mistakes I found there. I started to think that maybe this book had an extraordinary plot like the others, but maybe it would contain some errors that would make me start disliking it.

But fortunately, i'm glad to say that it didn't. This was super amazing!!! I was starting to compare this with Necropolis which is the most incre So, this is the third book of one of my favorite series, The Gatekeepers!

I was starting to compare this with Necropolis which is the most incredible, fantastic, awesome, outstanding book in the series. In this third part of The Gatekeepers, you meet a new element of the 5, or better yet 2 of the 5, they are brothers.

The storyline was good, and in this volume you get to see how a war, from a thousand years ago between the gatekeepers and the Old Ones, was held. Even though the stories in these books are always great for my taste, full of adventures, non stopping action, and suspense that keeps you on the edge of your seat , there were some things that weren't clear for me view spoiler [ how did they find Matt at the end???

Apr 17, Niki rated it it was ok Shelves: young-adult , mystery-suspense , fantasy , hard-pass , middle-grade , action. I have to be honest and admit that I didn't like this book as much as the previous 2 in the Gatekeepers series. Not to mention that the entire "rand I have to be honest and admit that I didn't like this book as much as the previous 2 in the Gatekeepers series. Not to mention that the entire "random group of Native Americans comes together to save the main character, loyal to them til death" was a copy of the Incas plotline from the previous book.

Indeed the twins were Native American, but we never get any answers about where they came from. We barely even got any scenes with both of them together when the boys got separated in the beginning, the entire thing was also reminiscent of how Matt and Richard were separated in the beginning of Evil Star.

I will be reading the next book s in the series, but I was definitely underwhelmed by this installment. View all 4 comments. May 23, Totoro rated it it was amazing Shelves: i-own. Scott and Jamie are 14 year old telepathic twins. They work at a mind reading show owned by their guardian. They capture Scott but Jamie manages to escape. Jamie ends up wanted by the police. He has to rescue Scott whilst also learning they are a part of something much bigger than he could imagine. This is my favourite book of the series so far.

I love the characters, Jamie in particular, and the plot. The story was really well thought out. A lot happened and the ending was really cool.

Everything is starting to come together and build up for the last book. Nightrise is book 3 in the series. This book took me a while to get into. But it got better after Jamie ends up 10, years back. He becomes embroiled in a corrupt presidential campaign and breaks into the American prison system before being propelled ten thousand years into the past, where he encounters the other Gatekeepers and witnesses the creation of Raven's Gate — and the first fateful battle against the Old Ones.
