It simplest terms the book is a sci-fi adventure with a team.
An odd strength I found was the pacing and focus (with the exception of the first few pages being heavy on exposition which may not have been necessary). This led it to feel a lot like Steven Brust's Vlad Taltos books which are fantastic adventures. The story is constantly moving forward and any side activity is more of taking a different lane as opposed to diverging to a side road and waiting to return to the plot. Everything rolls ou ...more

This is a great and fun read for kids and adults alike. Great action moves the plot forward with little 'down time.' The constructed universe is imaginative and compelling. Riley's fun use of science fiction is offset with a hint of (Earthy) spirituality, and tactfully woven comic-like humor. I particularly love the variety of characters and personalities painted throughout the story, lending to plucky comedic quips even in the midst of battle.

Got free from a giveaway for a honest review.
The story have so many challenges in it for the characters. They are trying to get the stones and battle against other things they cross. For me at times I kept getting a flash of "Honey I Shrunk The Kids" when they went up against a big slug and other things. I thought the book had a good steady pace filled with action and adventure for the characters. The characters pulled you into liking them.

This was a fun book to read. It started a little slow, but then got rolling. I loved the writing and idea of the storyline. The characters were interesting and the challenges they incurred during this part of the story were exciting. I look forward to the next book as it left me wanting more which is what I want in a book. Well done Kimberly.
This book is a blend of science fiction and fantasy, with deep world building, intense action, and vivid imagery.

A fast read that has plenty of action, adventure, and development. Great world building and setup. The characters are fleshed out and unique, each having their own voice.

Stone Of Power, (Keepers of Earth) is a clever twist on the constantly changing sci-fi genre, the book is fun and fast and doesn't feel like anything is sacrificed when it comes to the characters development . The plot is steady and easy to understand but the world building is simply incredible and one could compare it to the amazing tale of Ender's Game.
