About this listen

The growing power in Sable’s words nearly changed the world. Until she was betrayed and silenced.

A year ago, on the land’s biggest stage, Sable’s voice nearly burned down the carefully constructed lies of the Kalesh Empire. Now, Sable’s skills are merely tools in High Prioress Vivaine’s desperate negotiations with the new Kalesh ambassador, who’s denounced Sable as a zabat. A rebel. A firestarter.

Sable would love nothing more than to burn down the empire. But with threats against her sisters looming, the acting troupe driven away, and no news of Reese for a year, she’s too chained and alone to even light a spark.

Meanwhile, the empire grows on the south like a disease and stretches its poisoned fingers even into the northern lands. Desperate to fight, Sable sends details about the Kalesh to the one ember of hope kindling in the north: a small, mysterious band of rebels. Vivaine hates the rebellion, though, and her spies have discovered their location - and that Sable is more deeply connected to them than she knows. Unless Sable turns her back on the rebellion and pledges loyalty to Vivaine, the prioress will reveal the rebel camp to the Kalesh.

But Vivaine should not be so rash, because the power of Sable’s voice is stirring again, the old coals being stoked into flames. And she’s ready to embrace the title of zabat.

The Keeper Origins trilogy and the Keeper Chronicles trilogy can be listened to in any order. They take place in the same world but are stand-alone books.

Another excellent tale from JA Andrews

Book 2 was just as good as the first one. So glad the final book is out - will be starting that ASAP!

Good

while I did enjoy this book, the story was very transparent and didn't quite deliver the impact of her other books. Nothing was a shock. In fact I'm surprised the hours spent reading while the prioress slept didn't make a reappearance. I'm expecting it in the last book.

It Keeps Getting Better

I fell in love with the original trilogy of the Keeper Chronicles. So I dove straight into the Prequel series after finishing the first set, as I wasn’t ready to leave this world and the characters in it, but having now finished book 2 in the prequel series I honestly think it’s been the best one of the 5 so far.

I enjoyed every moment of the story, and it just kept getting better. It’s so engrossing and following Sable and her companions through their journey just keeps me wanting more.

I can’t recommend this series enough, and you should definitely go through them all! Hving read the original trilogy I’ve really enjoyed the call-backs and threads that tie them together.

I can’t wait for the next entry !

Wonderful characters

I love the Keeper Origins trilogy. It is set within a fantasy framework but the magic and derring-do, while driving the narrative forward, is second to the wonderful characters that populate the book. It is with the characters, for me, where the magic happens. The story revolves around the heroine, Sable, as she tries to free herself and her two sisters from their environment; an environment that shackles them to the slums where danger is just around the corner. In attempting this escape she moves on to a bigger stage, one where she is trying to break the bonds imposed by the country’s leaders on the whole populace and deal with the menace from a foreign empire.

The characters are well developed and while there is excitement and action there is also humour. You begin to love and believe in them; you care about them. It is wonderfully written.

It is a riveting read and I cannot wait to read the final book in the trilogy. I thoroughly recommend it. Go on enjoy them!
