"The book; "Nightrise", written by Anthony Horowitz tells the continuation of the story about the cycle of the world's new beginning. This commencement comes after the world's end and after the fight of five gatekeepers to keep the Old away from controlling this world. In this part of the series, after the failed attempt to close the second gates, begins the story of the twin brothers: Scott and Jamie Tyler. When one of the brothers is captured by powerful corporation, named Nightrise, the other, Jamie, goes on search for him. On the way Jamie learns about conspiracy to murder one of the candidates for the president of the United States. He is trying to save his brother and the presidential candidate. This book tells the story of brotherly love and of lessons that life gives us in order for us to learn independence and ability to strive and survive on our own."

" What? I wish this had more to do with Pedro and Matt. It could be better. I don't like books where on the first few they are about one or two people and then on the next they switch to a character we've never heard of. It does get back to topic and explain some things that i wanted to know. I wonder what the 4th ones going to be about. And find Scar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
— Alistair, 2/20/2014" I have't got that far into the book its good so far it has to magician who are young and are twins "
— Anthonycolby, 2/17/2014" I was surprise when i read this book I just picked it and boom it was amazing. It was a very exciting and suspensful book. It really kept me going and was awesome. I think that people should also read this it is really good for people who like paranormal or fairy tale stuff. "

— Mandy, 12/30/2013" This was actually a really good book. I probably would have rated it higher if I read it at a different time. I have been reading a lot of science fiction and about the time I started this book I was kind of starting to crave a different genre. "
— Lorrin, 11/8/2013" This book is really good. It has some horror in it, but other than that, it's real good. It's the third book in the Gatekeepers series and is about different gatekeepers. Anthony Hortwitz has a knak for horror. Most of his books are real good. "

— Michael, 4/13/2013" Anthony Horowitz hit another Home Run!!! The 3rd book in the Gatekeepers series is much like the others, but with OTHERWORLDLY TRAVELING. The two twins have the power to read each other's minds, and Nightrise has kidnapped one of em. "

— Blair, 10/4/2012" I liked the book, but I expected more from it. It wasn't as interesting as I wanted it to be. Half the time I was bored and wanted to put it down. It got very enjoyable about two thirds through the book. "
