About this listen
The tale of how an orphaned thief escaped the slums, united a nation, and brought a mighty empire to its knees.
The truth is neither plain nor simple. Sable, a reluctant thief from the slums, can feel truth when people speak. For years she’s been using that skill to try to break free from the vicious gang boss to whom she's indebted.
Escape comes in the form of an odd set of companions: a dwarf running from the past, an actor with a magical, glowing tree, a too-helpful kobold, a playwright with a knack for getting stories out of people, and a man and woman with suspicious, magical powers.
But Sable’s freedom is short lived. On the edges of civilization, they discover hidden, terrifying lies in the offers of peace from the brutal Kalesh Empire. Now, she must return to the city she fled, and along with her companions, attempt an impossible task: convince everyone, including the powerful Dragon Prioress, of the truth.
Except the Kalesh web of lies has ensnared everyone.
With her land, her people, and everything she loves hanging in the balance, Sable is the only one standing between freedom and certain death.
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.

Great story and love this narrator
I love Kate Reading’ narrations and picked this up mainly to listen to her. I loved the story. Great sweeping epic with lots of rich characters and countryside. I loved following sable and her friends journey and can’t wait for the next instalment. What started out as quite a small tale in dockside has definitely escalated and opened up to become something else entirely, making heroes out of ordinary people. And villains out of heroes.

Good characters
liked the story and the characters are great as expected but the actual story conclusion falls a bit short... if you like the series you will enjoy this one though it's nothing like the keepers

Felt like the focus was on the wrong part
The beginning of the book was really gripping and I felt very invested on if she could get her sisters away from the gang boss.
But unfortunately most of the rest of the book is about them facing off with a faceless empire which I didn’t find very engaging. The plan the characters come up with to deal with the Empire didn’t feel that thought out and was pretty much doomed to fail from the beginning. Said I didn’t feel like there was much incentive to read on. Characters are likable enough but most aren’t as deep as I’ve seen in other books.
I feel like if it focused more on the sisters themselves it would’ve been a better story overall

Wonderful!
I took a punt on this book and boy I was not disappointed. All of the characters are wonderfully written, yes, all of them. I found myself caring deeply about some them as the story unfolded. Of course the narration is every bit as much to blame as the writer.
No sooner had I finished book one when I started the next book and binged on it over a couple of days. A fantastic sequel.
A wonderful series so far and I am eagerly awaiting the final book in the series.
These are books I will definitely read over and over again!

Another fantastic entry in the Keeper Universe
Having just finished the first Trilogy of Keeper books I was very keen to experience more of it. I was then delighted to find that this book existed!
Having listened through, and thoroughly enjoyed the original 3 books, this entry into the prequel series in this universe met every expectation and desire that I was looking for following on from the first 3.
The characters are all highly enjoyable and likeable, their development and personalities are excellently portrayed. with there existing a nice level of depth in every one.
The journey they take is gripping and entertaining to be a part of.
In a sense, like the first book of the original trilogy, once I was introduced to the characters and the world I was honestly hooked.
This alternate take on the universe is highly enjoyable and I am enjoying seeing it from another perspective - one in which the stage is being set for the future events.
Part of me wanted to carry on in the original timeline, but this setting is just as intriguing and engaging and I am very much enjoying the way the links between the two are connected.
I can’t wait to hear the rest of the story and hope that should this new series end there will be more from the world of the keepers after !
