The Pathfinder: The Curse of the Midas Box is an adventure film released in 2014. It is a sequel to The Pathfinder and follows the story of a young boy named Mariah Mundi who embarks on a quest to save his family. The main theme of the movie revolves around the concept of the Midas Box, a mysterious artifact with the power to turn everything it touches into gold. In the film, Mariah's parents go missing after they work for a powerful and sinister organization known as The Bureau of Antiquities. Mariah sets out on a journey to find his parents and uncovers a secret world of magic and danger. Along the way, he encounters different characters and faces numerous challenges.

"Well I turned in the text of Abarat 2 to a wonderfully enthusiastic reception. the strongest happiest response I've had to any book I've ever written. Which is incredibly pleasing of course, and also kind of startling because it's the second book in the series. I couldn't have anticipated the level of just happiness that people have got in response to the book. That's great and a huge relief!
"I was very determined that the second book be more of a complete experience. Sort of finish, I don't want to give to much away obviously, but to finish off some more of the narratives. There are two more books to come, so there is much more to unfold. But I want the second book to be a more fulfilling experience as a narrative than the first one could be because, by it's very nature, I'm introducing a world, I'm introducing a lot of characters. It's a very complicated world with its own quite elaborate rules, and all that had to be set up. By the time I got to the second book, that was done, that is done. So now I can roll. And I can get to the stuff which is really fun, which is the plot stuff, and the character stuff, and the primal battles which is the heart of the story, and something apocalyptic as well, because I wanted to make sure that having set up this world, I could then do something pretty dramatic to it as early as the second book. There wouldn't be a sense that you had to wait for the fourth book before anything of great scale happened. I wanted something pretty big to happen in every book. And something huge happens, well actually two or three huge things happen in this book."

The climax is not a scene, it s a collection of scenes - I don t think I m giving too much away when I say Days of Magic, Nights of War contains a collision of worlds. By this second book Candy knows all too well that she will be essential to Abarat s future, and that the supremely evil Christopher Carrion, Lord of Midnight, is out to get her.

Along the way, he encounters different characters and faces numerous challenges. One of the major plot elements in the film is the curse of the Midas Box. The Bureau of Antiquities seeks to obtain this box and harness its power for their own gain.

About this title

Clive Barker, author of The Thief of Always, delivers an epic battle filled with fantasy and adventure that readers won't want to put down!

All things in their time . . .

Candy Quackenbush's adventures in the Abarat are getting stranger by the hour. Why has the Lord of Midnight sent his henchman after her? Why can she suddenly speak words of magic? Why is this world familiar?

Candy and her companions must solve the mystery of her past before the forces of Night and Day clash and Absolute Midnight descends upon the islands.

A final war is about to begin. . . .

Don't miss this second book in Clive Barker's New York Times bestselling Abarat series.

The eagerly anticipated second volume of Clive Barker’s four part fantasy series, Abarat: Days of Magic, Nights of War, picks up right where the highly praised first novel leaves off. Candy Quakenbush is still on the run from the Lord of Midnight, Christopher Carrion, who plans to establish a Permanent Midnight throughout the 25 islanads that make up Abarat. Candy, aided and abetted by a host of colorful new characters, including Malingo (the affable geshrat she rescued in Book One), continues to dodge Carrion’s hired assassins, as forces gather on both sides of Day and Night to prepare for the inevitable war between the Hours.

Days of Magic, Nights of War is a true series book--those who have not traveled to Abarat before will have a difficult time picking up the threads of Barker’s complex mythical opus without having read the first installment. But teen readers who have been waiting breathlessly for Candy’s return are rewarded with a stunning sequel that reveals her true identity at the novel’s smashing climax. As in Abarat, Clive Barker's full-colored, organic illustrations of Abarat’s inhabitants stalk and swim across the pages like a Stephen King-meets-Dr. Seuss circus. There seems to be no end to Barker’s ever-expanding idiosyncratic vision, and for that, fantasy fans of all ages can be grateful. --Jennifer Hubert
