The second book in the "Keeper-Series" picks up about a week after the events at the Hotel Elysium. Claire and Dean are together on the road and are finally – after some misunderstandings – able to figure out if they´re in love or not. Of course Austin the cheeky cat is there as is Claire´s sister Diana. Furthermore an angel and a demon both confused about their physical bodies and its demands play a main part...more

those who love fantasy...and cats
I picked up the Keeper Chronicles after reading/watching Tanya Huff's Blood Ties series. (Now a tv series on Lifetime.) I really like Tanya Huff's ability to write a good book with likeable characters...and I love her great sense of humor!
The star of this series, in my eyes, is the cat, Austin. He talks...in exactly the way you would expect a cat to talk. He knows everything, is full of attitude and actually made me laugh out loud while reading this book (on a plane).

I like this book better than the first one in the series. The focus is less on the two main characters from the first book and more on Diana, and angel and a demon. Usually angels and demons manifest as genderless, but due to unusual circumstances both the angel and the demon manifest with gender and have to learn how to deal with it. Genderless beings suddenly having to deal with gender is far more interesting than the main plot of the story.

More of the same from the first book... At first I thought is was in a bad way, then it was in a good way. Hokey and happy, though she did make fun of the word "kewl" a few times more often than funny.
P.S. I tried to read the third on the airplane, but the irritation level went too high and I gave up about 1/3 of the way in.

I liked the idea of this a lot, but the execution felt a little jerky and even a little boring in places. I did enjoy the way everything worked out, but it was a little difficult getting there. Still, I had some laughs and passed some enjoyable hours. I didn't think it was as good as Summon the Keeper, but I did enjoy reading it.

This series is just plain fun to read, there are a lot of pop-culture references and it flows really fast. It was not difficult to read the whole book in one day.

As far as I recall I enjoyed it, but it's not one I've re-read. Maybe I should do that and write a proper review for a change.

*sigh* I love Tanya Huff. As always, she delivers the goods with entertaining characters and an original story.

Good fun. Not as good as Summon the Keeper, but still helped me through my first week after surgery.

Almost, almost as good as the first, which is pretty darn hard for a sequel.

Love. Teenage bits of good and evil, with naughty bits. The fun begins.
