Description

Sometimes the end is just the beginning. 

Fifteen-year-old Jacob Lau should have died in the car crash. Instead, he woke up broken, confused, and haunted by a single question—why can’t anyone find his mother’s body? Shipped across the country to live with an uncle he barely knows, Jacob’s world spirals into mystery and danger.

That’s when he meets Dr. Abigail Silva, a striking and enigmatic stranger with powers beyond anything Jacob thought possible. She claims she can help him uncover the truth about his mom’s disappearance—but only if he agrees to her impossible demand: train as a Soulkeeper, a warrior sworn to defend human souls from the terrifying creatures that hunt them.

Jacob isn’t a hero. He never asked for this fight. But with every battle, every lie, and every dark secret revealed, he’s drawn deeper into a world where trust is fragile, monsters are real, and the truth may cost him everything.

Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson, Mortal Instruments, and fast-paced urban fantasy books for teens, The Soulkeepers is a bestselling YA fantasy adventure about courage, friendship, found family, and the dangerous line between light and shadow.

Read the bestselling novel that readers call an utterly spellbinding, elaborate and spectacularly written adventure! 

5 stars. An utterly spellbinding, elaborate and spectacularly written adventure. From its very first words - "Death lived up to Jacob's expectations" - the story will pull readers in and take them on an adventure as Jacob discovers abilities he never knew he had and tries to uncover the truth about his mother's whereabouts. -- Fiktshun Reviews

An astounding book. The concept of the storyline was genius. Every line, every word felt well-thought out and meaningful. The Soulkeepers never felt like an outright horror book to me, no slashing or blood-letting, but I was completely creeped out (in a good way). -- Andrea Thompson

Fantastic read, no matter how old you are. Does it matter that I bought The Soulkeepers for my children and I wound up loving it myself? No. No matter how old you are, you will love this book. -- Cathy Webster

One of those rare stories that seizes your attention from the start and never lets it go. I would highly recommend The Soulkeepers. It has everything a reader could ever want. -- Sarah of ThatBookishgirl.com

    The book was good and the writing style was easy to follow. The only problem was that the story is very heavily christian influenced. So if youre not christian, its a little pushy. I like the spiritual focus of the story but it swayed too much in one direction and I think it couldve been more neutral for people of different faiths.

    I downloaded this title and forgot about it for a while. I picked up my phone and decided to start reading. I got to this book and I didn't really know what to expect. But I enjoyed how the author used what we know about things and kind of put a twist from all our imaginations of what we are told things are. Her use of Biblical descriptions of angels and "fallen angels" (demons) and making them the foundation of the fight in the story, was well done. I like how she took original sin and changed it just a hair to explain how our heroes developed and came together in the story. It's a good read and well worth a look at.

    I read this book in a day. It took me a few weeks to read the tire series. Once you start you can't stop. This is just the beginning and it gets better with each book!

    It's good so far... But it says he dies and sees nothing but black, but a few pages later he describes the light tunnel he saw. Also, it had said that it was sunny the day he died, but a few pages later he describes the ominous clouds. Hmm.. Still going to give it a chance. But I enjoy detail.

    I found the writing belabored and clunky, and I couldn't get through more than a few chapters. Too bad, I suspect there's a good story buried under all that unwieldy verbiage.
