The Power of Five is a series of novels by author Anthony Horowitz who wrote the Alex Rider books, I like the first book, Ravens Gate. But that didn't even come close to how good Evil Star was. The third book, Nightrise, comes out April 2nd. Anyone here read the first two books?

For those who havn't heres some info:



Matt has always known he has unusual powers. Raised in foster care, he is sent to Yorkshire on a rehabilitation programme, only to find himself in the midst of sinister goings-on. Matt investigates and uncovers a terrible secret - eight guardians are protecting the world from the evil ones, beings banished long ago by five children. But devil worshippers want to let the evil ones back in...



After his experiences at Raven's Gate, fourteen-year-old Matt Freeman thinks his days of battling evil are over. But soon he is pulled into another horrifying adventure when he discovers a second gate exists. Matt and his friend Richard travel to Peru and, assisted by a secret organization known as the Nexus, follow a series of clues to the gate's whereabouts. But there is a traitor in the Nexus...



Nevada, USA. Fourfourteen-year-old twins Jamie and Scott Tyler are performing a mind-reading act in a dingy theatre. But when a sinister multinational corporation, Nightrise, kidnaps Scott, Jamie is left alone - and wanted for murder. He soon becomes embroiled in a corrupt presidential campaign and is propelled into a terrifying adventure which reveals more about the first fateful battle against the Old Ones...

Anyone see the connections between the book titles and me?
