Praise for The Joshua Files - Invisible City:"A splendid adventure story of UFOs, ancient Mayan documents and a lost city.

Josh's quest for a long-lost Mayan text giving the key to salvation is bound up with his personal destiny in an unexpected way. But he is also, like all 13-year-olds, uncertain of what the future will bring. Harris cleverly captures this pivotal period." Carole Mansur, 15 March 2008, The Telegraph
"Indiana Jones would have stiff competition in young Joshua Garcia . . . This novel is well written, with the action unfolding at a fast and satisfying clip. This series is destined to be a hit...the many mysteries and unanswered questions will have the reader begging for the rest of the series. Highly Recommended."
