"As thrilling as a rollercoaster ride, this fantastical world of spies, spirits, ancient prophecies and hidden cities tests Josh to his limits..." The Booktrust.
When his archaeologist father goes missing after an air crash in Mexico, UFO-obsessed Josh suspects alien abduction. He starts a blog to voice his fears and finds like-minded friends. But after he discovers his dad was murdered, Josh is caught up in a race to find the legendary Ix Codex - a lost book of the ancient Maya containing a prophecy about the end of the world. Translated into seventeen languages, Invisible City is the first installment in a series that spans continents and centuries.
This twisty, time-travel thriller is perfect for fans of Indiana Jones, Doctor Who and Stargate as well as teenage heroes like Alex Rider and Percy Jackson.

Highly Recommended.” Library Media Connection, starred review
