Percy Fitz gazed at the mountains that loomed before him as he stood on the deck of his family's cabin. He longed to explore them, but his mother wouldn't allow it. She wouldn't allow him to do hardly anything. Whatever he did do, he got in trouble for. Those mountains attracted him as nothing else in his life had. He didn't fit in his family, but he felt he could fit somewhere in those mountains. Someday when he was older he was determined to explore them. He knew they held adventure and excitement. What he could never have imagined is that within days he would be not only in them, but under them, and off on an unimaginable adventure. It would be an adventure that included talking mountain lions, a hidden kingdom, a king that proclaimed Percy the answer to a riddle, a magical sword, a beautiful princess, killer beetles the size of cows, and a variety of menacing creatures only mentioned in ancient books. Was he up to this much adventure? Was this the place where he could truly fit in?

“I never thought of myself as a killer.”What is Jillian? A sport? A mutant? An alien dropped on this world by some sadistic entity? She’s been this way for as long as she can remember—a predator—the hidden. EDITORIAL REVIEWSThis is a short first installment of promised books to come. The writing is beyond good and places the reader in the room with the characters. The reader's interest is piqued and the story draws one in as a moth to a flame. The only question is will all involved become burned?--Elizabeth KnightbridgeThis first book of the series The Hidden will grab your attention. It is riveting, keeping the reader's attention as the scene moves forward with suspense. C.R. Meyers is an excellent writer, and develops the character and scene impeccably. The only down side is I wanted to read more.... I am looking forward to reading the second in the series.--Elizabeth ZgutaA very ... very good read.What is Gillian? I have no Idea, but I do know she is not human and that she is a killer.I would love to read more by this author in this series specifically since the author has that rare quality of a person loving words and needing to use them in his writing, that alone merits his 5 * rating.--Wandah Panda
