Synopsis

Horace F. Andrews and his friend Chloe are Keepers of magical objects of extraordinary power.  But as the presence of a new Keeper is made known, they are drawn into a struggle to find out who she is and where her loyalties lie. A gripping sequel to The Box and the Dragonfly, the first book in Ted Sanders’s Keepers series, hailed by the New York Times Book Review as a “satisfying and original quest tale.” As Horace and Chloe adjust to their newfound talents—Horace can see the future and Chloe can walk through walls—a girl called April is drawn toward the Keeper stronghold, the Warren. She comes with a Tan’ji of her own, though it is damaged and there is no telling what will happen if it cannot be made whole again. Accompanied by a mysterious woman with a power of her own and the young boy leading them in the right direction, April is being pursued by a pack of sinister hunters. Will she reach the Warren in time, and will it offer safety or only more danger?Ted Sanders’s series has the feel of classic fantasy with a science fiction twist, and this second book, The Harp and the Ravenvine, will thrill readers with adventure, intrigue, and the unexpected at every turn.

Another page-turner! I loved the addition of Isabel and the complexity she adds to an already-rich story. I can't wait to read what happens next with her character and the intrigue surrounding Mr. Meister and his questionable decisions. The only downside for me was that new character and "empath" Ap......more

Even better than the first one, and the first one was already great. My favorite thing about this series is the characters. Brian, Isabel, and April are new, but they integrate really well into the story. April is quiet, but delivers deadpan lines that are s o unintentionally funny. Brian is an inter......more

Goodreads review by Naomi on May 23, 2017

The Harp and the Ravenvine is a worthy sequel to the first book of the "Keepers" series, the Box and the Dragonfly. It has a familiar sound to it, that reminds you of the previous book, but also contains some unfamiliar elements and new characters, such as April and Isabel, and expands upon lightly......more
