The Joshua Files

The Joshua Files is an internationally published, best-selling series of children’s adventure novels.

Like the 2012 movie from Sony Pictures and the forthcoming 2012 TV series from the Syfy channel, The Joshua Files is a work of pure imagination that uses the mysterious Mayan calendar date as the basis of a fictional global threat.

In The Joshua Files: Invisible City, a British teenager, Josh Garcia, discovers that he’s linked with a secret society descended from the ancient Mayans. This group, who live in the ‘invisible city’ of  the title, protect ancient secrets about the coming events of 2012. Josh is propelled into a world of government conspiracies, secret societies and the lost knowledge of an ancient civilisation.
