Maya is a remarkable twelve year old girl with even more remarkable friends who will stand by her even in the dark. Into the dark is where they must go to find and rescue Maya's dad, the keeper of the veil. Maya finds out the hard way that her dads business is not quite what it seems, and her neighborhood as well, almost like her dads stories set in her favorite comic book world. Her dad is a god and is tasked with keeping the veil between our world and the dark intact so the darklings don't cross into our world.
I left the summary of the book short on purpose I didn't want to have any spoilers. But this is a wonderful book where science and comic book stories rule, and tweens learn their own strengths. This is a well thought out books with awesome characters that anyone can relate to one or more of, and can hold the attention of even a reluctant readers.
