House of Power
While climbing the forbidden cliffs of Atherton, Edgar discovers the first of many startling revelations to come: the three realms of Atherton are beginning to collapse. The humble grove that is his home, the mysterious highland reaml of untold beauty, and the vast wasteland below, where a monstrous danger lurks, are about to be joined. Atherton is not what it seems.

Rivers of Fire
Atherton has collapsed and a new danger is on the rise. The process of inversion has begun, and the Highlands, the center of Atherton, are sinking. Dr. Kincaid, Vincent and Edgar make their way towards the edge of the Highlands, intent on entering a secret underground refuge to find the key to unlocking Dr. Harding’s brain. They must discover how to overcome the threat of the deadly Cleaners, creatures unleashed on the flattened land, before it’s too late. But this refuge holds more secrets than anyone could have imagined.

The Dark Planet
Even though Edgar’s mission to save his home has been accomplished, he still restlessly scales the interior crevices of Atherton, searching for clues about the Dark Planet. He was warned never to go back, but at the encouragement of Dr. Kincaid and Vincent, Edgar discovers the Raven, an incredible way to return to the fallen Earth. It’s up to Edgar to save two worlds, and time is running out.

i love your books i have read all of floors but the 3rd one i am hopeing to read all your books and they made me think about how fun it would be to be a author from a edison student
I loved all of your books very much. You have inspired me to become an author when I grow older and hopefully I can make clear and breathetaking stories for all to enjoy, just like you have. You are forever my favorite author. I hope you cotinue to write more wonderful books in the many years to come!
Author smiles : )
Hey, i just wanted to say i loved your books. Ive read all of Atherton and am in the middle of skeleton creek series. . .but my school library doesn’t have all of them unfortunately -_- but i love the ones i’ve read thanks for all the good books see Yaa =.)
i love all of your books! iv read the series of Atheraton… or however you spell that. but it was AMAZING! but i have a question for you. in witch catigory would you place your books? i can tell they all are along the same lines, and its, without a dought, my favorite catigory ever. but i have a problem: everytime i go to the library i look for books that are in a similar catigory as yours, if not the same. but i am never satisfied with what i have in my hands when i walk out. Shure it looks good, and sounds satisfying from the overveiw on the back, but about halfway threw they jsut bore me
its your books that really pop out, and make me sad when they finish. i just wish that i could find more books like yours. any way i adore your books, and you as an Auther to much i remember your name. Haha im not good with names, so if i remember yours, then you must have made an imprint in my life, or you are importend to me. In your case, i think you did both. you are imported to me for your books i couldent live without, and you made an imprint on my life by being such a good Auther. You see, i am quite a wrighter to, and ur books are an insperation to me. Yes i know my spelling needs major help, but if u were to read the book that i have just berly started, then i know you would be impressed.

I used to read your books all the time. I read the whole skeleton creak series and i loved it but it kept me up at night. I always felt like George Bush was starring in my window and just looking at me. It was a very uncomforting feeling so i just kept reading more and more. The way you described the scenes where they were was just amazing. I am planning on reading this series because the story line sounds outrageous. I am from Missoula, Mt and I love to read your books.

P.S. If you could send me an email for a reply.
@Noah Robertson haha you must’ve forgotten the ghost isn’t the president George Bush, it was Old Joe Bush. It’s kind of an easy mistake but I couldn’t help laughing. Ha, K bye.
i love how u put feeling into your books (:
They’re really good books to read. I recommend them to people who like adventure, mystery, and science fiction.
