The Keeper Chronicles: The Complete Trilogy: The Keeper Chronicles, Books 1-3

I would consider myself an old school fantasy lover and spent much of my youth reading Tolkien, McKiernan, McCaffrey, Tad Williams and pretty much anyone else I could get my hands on. Recently I have dove into indie fantasy and let me tell you, JA Andrews is leaps and bounds ahead of the field, her story telling is phenomenal and you can't help but get sucked in and feel fully immersed while reading. Once you hit that 30% point of each book you can't help but get swept up in the story, you have to pick up the book every free minute you have until you finish it.Getting a little fatigued by all the grimdark books? Looking for something to rekindle that same passion you had as a kid the first time you read about dragons? This is it, this is the story. She will make you laugh, she will make you cheer, she will make you send her messages about how your wife asks what's going on in the story because you are crying into your coffee mug while reading!Her side story (and bonus story) fit in so well with the main trilogy that I have tremendously high hopes for future novels.

At 70, I've been reading for more than 60 years. This trilogy is one of the most memorable and enjoyable that I've read in a number of years. I loved the characters and the story line. I heartily recommend it. If you enjoyed AC Cobble's Benjamin Ashwood series, I think you will like this too. I can't wait for what's next from JA Andrews. Will she stay in this world that she has created? Only time will tell.

First I would like to say that I have already read and reviewed the first two books, A Threat of Shadows and Pursuit of Shadows, both fantastic books. So I will focus this review on Siege of Shadows, book #3. This book was heartpounding, emotional and very satisfying. Good vs Evil is an old theme, however, this storyline is totally unique and awesome! We get to follow Sini, the first female keeper to use Sunfire power in two hundred years. She is an enchanting character and I just fell in love with her as she deals with self discovery, hope, friendship, betrayal, loss and even love. The Book is full of beautiful and rich characters, fantastic world building, magic and dragons. It is fast paced and exciting. A real page turner from beginning to end for me. An epic journey of magic and adventure. I give this book two thumbs up for a perfect fantasy read! The writing is incredible! I give this the highest recommendation possible! A Must Read!.... Thank you miss Andrews for some fantastic storytelling!

I absolutely loved this Trilogy it kept me so involved I became a part of these stories. The characters were amazingly authentic. . Loved the elves especially the elvlings. The dwarves, the Rovens, the Keepers and the humans made the stories come alive. The twists and turns lead a thrilling ride throughout the stories. Absolutely loved being surprised here and there. I hated it had to end. I recommend this trilogy wholeheartedly. I am voluntarily leaving an honest review of this book because I love to read and endorse an author's writing I enjoy without revealing to much of the story to not to ruin it for others.

Wow. Just WOW. I always have high expectations for epic fantasy books but rarely do I find a series that meets all my requirements for an amazing read. This series has it ALL. Elves, dwarves, dragons, magic, love, loss, joy, sorrow, suspense, plot twists... I simply could not put this series down. The emotional depth of the characters and their journeys effortlessly pulled me in for the ride and I found myself smiling and crying along with them. I now find myself mourning the fact that it is over. This will be a series I will go back to time and again and I highly recommend everyone take this journey for themselves. You will not be disappointed.

I have read all three of these books now, and I have enjoyed each one. JA Andrews could easily be a keeper herself. She certainly weaves stories well enough. Each one kept me up far later than I should have stayed up at night because they were hard to put down. The stories were engaging and the characters were likable. There were enough twists to keep things from being too predictable. The only complaint I have is that there are not more of them. Then again, perhaps it is a good thing. I do need to sleep.

I got this awesome trilogy for a buck!!! I’m not sure how long it will stay that low but even if you have to pay full price it’s more than worth it (seriously, I mean that)!! As someone who has read all of her 4 books you will be as charmed by them as if you were listening to them being told by the character Keeper Will. Don’t miss this series!

I couldn't get into this series. I gave it a good go and it wasn't for lack of trying, but it just didn't draw me in.I can usually devour a good fantasy trilogy etc in a few days if it sucks me into it's world, however I just couldn't identify with any of the characters.That's my own personal preference/opinion though.It seems well written and has many great reviews. And for the under $2 special price for the series, I can't complain at all. Writers deserve a lot more.You just don't know what suits you till you read it yourself. :)

THE Keepers chronicles book one.If I could give this more stars then I would it’s packed full of adventure betrayal and a little bit of sadness mixed in.Follow Alaric a keeper wholesale seeks knowledge.Ayda and elf with a burden she should not carry.Duglon a dwarf with an axeBrandson a black smith.Milly a milk made.They set off on an adventure to stop a shade seeker, and encounter a lot of trouble along the way,I’ll be honest I couldn’t put the book down; it’s filled with fun laughter and a tiny bit of sadness to. But what is a book if it does not pull on the heart strings eh?Book 2 is just as good.Follow the Keeper Will, as he searches for his long-lost sister Ilisa.A Ranger Sora who doesn’t know if she should trust Will.A slave girl Rass who has an unhealthy obsession with Grass, but is there more to her what it seems?We see old friends from the first book, too, I couldn’t put it down, although a slow start once the pace picked up a bit I was enthralled with the book. I almost don’t want to read book three because it will end….Book three,Sini who we met in book two, becomes a keeper though she feels as though she does not belong.I absolutely love sin, I love her unusual gift. She breathes life in to the old keepers and hope to a better future, I didn’t just read it, I felt it, saw it, smelt it, everything was written as if I was standing next to Sin. I cried, I laughed, my only regret is finishing this book, I didn’t want it to end.I urge anyone who hasn’t read it yet to read it you will not regret it.

Loved all three books. Couldn't put them down once I started - a few very late nights may have been involved!The character development was excellent and both the antagonists & protagonists were believable.Loved the differing storytellers in each of the books, thoroughly enjoyed reading each book and seeing what had happened to them along the way. It was well put together and included all you could want - elves, dwarves, dragons.....Felt so sad when I reached the end. Definitely left wanting more....

I want to cry... the story has finished but I want MORE - and that's always the sign of an amazing author. Excellent character building, very clever magic system, dragons, elves and dwarves. What more could you want... well more actually!

With so many self published ebooks on the market today, it often feels like panning for gold before you find something worth reading. Be assured the Keeper Chronicles is a little nugget which drew me in and kept me entertained until the very last page. It is a test of a good book when you wish there was more. I stumbled upon JA Andrews work, it sat amongst hundreds of other 99p offerings and as I often do, I opened up the cover expecting the first few sample pages to confirm the worst but as sometimes happens, you find a bargain. The plots may be predictable at times but it is written with charm and warmth and celebrates the important things in life, friendship, love and kindness. This little series has a “feel good” factor and I wish the author success.

Found the story and characters very enjoyable. Well constructed and written and with no obvious grammatical or typographic errors. The Chronicles ended in such a way that further ones could be easily added. The main characters appear to have a fair bit of life left in their stories.
