About this product

Product Information

Discover the first book in the Keeper's Chronicles, where a young woman becomes master of the possibilities of time and space, maintaining the balance between worlds to protect Earth. Austin was a black and white, far-from-young cat. Not just any cat, mind you, he was the Keeper's cat, a very outspoken feline with extremely strong opinions he was always willing to voice. After all, who knew better than Austin what was best for the well-being of Claire--and for the not-quite-as-important rest of the universe? Claire Hansen was a Keeper, a member of that select group that kept the universe in one piece. And now she'd been Summoned to the Elysian Fields Guesthouse, a rundown bed-and-breakfast that seemed to attract the most unusual clientele. And Claire was not happy about this latest assignment, not happy at all. Not when she'd been tricked into taking over here by a horrible little gnome of a man who'd abandoned his post before she'd even figured out who he really was. Not when room six held a resident who'd been sleeping there for so many years that she really needed a good dusting--except that it was far too dangerous for anyone to get that close to her. Not when the basement housed too much temptation for anyone's mental health. Not when she found herself surrounded by "helpers" as distracting as Dean, the hunky-yet-innocent handyman, and Jacques, a ghost with a real lust for life. And especially not when it looked like this might be the not only her most challenging mission, but one she'd be stuck handling for life....

    A page turner for sure.

    Summon the Keeper is about a young lady named Claire Hensen and her black and white cat Austin. Claire is a keeper. Born of special lineage, she has the ability to close rips in the fabric of the universe before evil can get through. So why is she summoned to a run-down Bed and Breakfast hotel during a rainstorm? She soon finds out that Elaysian Fields is holding a hole opened to Hell and is being balanced out with an evil keeper by the name of Sara. Add a know it all little sister named Diana, the young hot and super neat freak Dean McIssac, and a lecherous 19th century french sailor named Jaques and hilarity ensues. Tanya Huff does a fantasitc job giving an introduction into the world of the Keepers. Plot: 5/5 Characters: 5/5 Setting: 5/5 Description: 4/5 Re-read choice: ...
