Hola,
I have read that the sequel is coming out in Fall, but I was wondering if anyone knows the plot or name of the book? Please share if you know! I have also heard that Disney is making the first one a movie. I can't wait to see if this is true. Thanks for reading!

I hope they make another one! Ohh and a movie! Coolio. I have read the first one like twice. I kinda felt like they were going to make a new one cause the first kinda ended with a cliffhanger. :-/

I found some interesting quotes from the author's web site, where he answered questions that readers of the first book asked.
Note - in the quotes below, KK means Kingdom Keepers (the first book) and KK2 means the second book.
Ridley Pearson (the author of Kingdom Keepers) wrote:
For all those interested... there is more movie talk going around for the Kingdom Keepers -- so keep your fingers crossed!
KK2 is about Animal Kingdom.
Expedition Everest will be in Kingdom #2.
The second book is now scheduled to be published in the fall of 2008. It will be written by summer of 2007, and then take a year to be published.
Kingdom Keepers, Book Two: The Rise of Chernabog will publish in September of 2008.
Amanda IS keeping secrets. Some of them will be revealed in KK2. (This was in response to a reader's comment that Amanda seemed like she was keeping secrets from Finn in KK.)
VMK was being developed as I wrote KK. I traveled to headquarters and they showed me what they could of it, but it's very different now. The good news is: they've agreed to work closely with me on KK2 -- and we may have some cross-over, where actual rooms mentioned in the novel end up on the site.
I do hope to set a KK book in DisneyLAND, providing the next books does well enough that Disney wants a 3rd book. Which I hope they will.

Oh, YAY!! I can wait! I'm a HUGE KK fan! A VMK friend of mine told me bout it a long time ago, and I was hooked. The only place I could find the book was at WDW. I can't wait for the second! A CM at VMK central in WDW told me that he was done with the second before the first was even published. But I guess he was wrong ;)

Posted by Ridley Pearson on his blog on 6/14/2007:
Here's the catalog copy for Kingdom Keepers 2 (note, the title is still being considered):
Kingdom Keepers: The Second Server
Disney At Dawn
It's supposed to be a happy day at the Magic Kingdom – the return of the teenage, holographic hosts. But things go very wrong when a sudden lightning storm disrupts the celebration, and Amanda's mysterious sister, Jez, disappears. The only clue is the sighting of a wild monkey in the Magic Kingdom during the storm.
The mystery deepens as Finn is contacted by Wayne, an old man he hasn't heard from in months. Wayne tells Finn that there's trouble at the Animal Kingdom: the evil Overtakers have gained control of one of the computer servers that will be used to operate Daylight Holographic Imaging there. That means that if any of the holographic hosts fall asleep, they will go into comas – permanently.
With time running out, Finn, Philby, and Maybeck, along with Willa and Charlene, and Amanda, begin a desperate search, following a string of cryptic clues found inside the diary of the missing Jez. They must find and destroy the second server before they fall asleep; their survival -- and the future of the parks – depend on their success.
Filled with action and brimming with the same meticulous detail as Kingdom Keepers: Disney After Dark, this second book in the series — Disney At Dawn --is the result of hands-on research behind the scenes at the Animal Kingdom. Young and older readers alike will get a glimpse into a second Disney kingdom. The wild rides have only just begun; and the clock is ticking. How long can the teens keep themselves awake in their quest to find their friend — and what happens if they fail?

We aren't supposed to know what Amanda and Jess/Jez are, correct? At the end of the book, it seemed like we were suppose to figure it out...but I really couldn't figure it out...
