Publisher Comments

The first in the lyrical, exciting Keepers of Life trilogy by new talent Shea Berkley.

Seventeen-year-old Dylan Kennedy always knew something was different about him. When Dylan sees a girl in white in the woods behind his grandparents' farm, he knows he's seen her before in his dreams. He's felt her fear and heard her insistence that only he can save her world from an evil lord who uses magic and fear to feed his greed for power.

Review

"Reading Sea Berkley is like watching magic unfold before your eyes. I could not get enough of this delicious tale." — Darynda Jones, author of First Grave on the Right

Synopsis

The first in the lyrical, exciting Keepers of Life trilogy by new talent Shea Berkley.

Synopsis

Seventeen-year-old Dylan Kennedy always knew something was different about him, but until his mother abandoned him in the middle of Oregon with grandparents he s never met, he had no idea what.

When Dylan sees a girl in white in the woods behind his grandparents farm, he knows he s seen her before in his dreams. He s felt her fear. Heard her insistence that only he can save her world from an evil lord who uses magic and fear to feed his greed for power.

Unable to shake the unearthly pull to Kera, Dylan takes her hand. Either he s completely insane or he s about to have the adventure of his life, because where they re going is full of creatures he s only read about in horror stories. Worse, the human blood in his veins has Dylan marked for death

Our Review [by a LITERAL ADDICTION Associate Guest Reviewer]: I wasn't sure what to expect from this book since I didn't read the blurb, but I absolutely loved it! It had pretty much everything including action, romance, drama and friendship. Dylan is 17 and hasn't had the easiest life so far his mother moves him around the country constantly after falling in and out of love with less than savory men and shows no love to her son and he can't make friends since he is moving about so much. Dylan has been having dreams about a girl since he was a young boy and never seems to fit in anywhere. When his mother abandons him with grandparents who he has just met you feel really sorry for him and you really begin to hate his mother. He sees the girl from his dreams in the woods outside his grandparent's home and then everything starts to go wrong. This is not your typical young adult book in the way that it can get really quite dark sometimes and even I was quite shocked at some parts and had to read parts again to see if that had really happened! I loved watching Dylan form relationships with other people as it was a very new experience for him and it was great to see people accept him for who he was and letting his bitterness go. Kera has grown up in a different world altogether and it is a harsh and cruel one and she has her own secrets to hide. The other characters in this story were great and I can't wait to read more from this wonderful author and hear more from Dylan and Kera! I would recommend it to anyone who loves YA, magic, action and one hell of a ride!
