    The Secret Series is a series of 'secret'-themed fantasy adventure novels written by Pseudonymous Bosch (Raphael Simon). The series centers on three middle school children: Cass, Max-Ernest, and Yo-Yoji; and their adventures as members of the Terces Society, a group that seeks to prevent a mysterious "Secret" from being discovered by the villainous organization of alchemists, the Midnight Sun.

    The Secret Series is inspired by Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events and targeted at middle-school-aged readers.[1]

    , a film adaptation is in development.[2]
