The Light Keeper and the Seismic Shift
The Light Keeper Series, Book 4
No cost is too high when the world is at stake.
After the suspicious death of an ally, Isaac and Yara travel to Vietnam to unite with other Light Keepers and Guardians from around the world. But everything feels off-Yara's distant, the team's divided, and Isaac can't shake the sense that something terrible is coming. Is the mission doomed before it has even begun?
If the Eastern Knight succeeds, faeries will storm into the human world. Even if Isaac manages to close the passage, the damage will already be done. Stopping him is the only way to protect the veil. Faced with impossible choices, alliances shatter and sacrifices must be made.
Only one thing is certain: after this mission, no one will come back the same.

Now for something completely different! This is from a series for teens/young adults. It is the fourth book and is not a stand alone. I read a summary of the first three books and managed to follow along pretty well. I was absolutely captivated by this world that I had only a basic outline of. I plan to listen to the audiobooks with my kids.
The story is about a human boy who discovers he is magically connected to another realm with a quest to complete. There is no spice, no major triggers. Fans of Percy Jackson will enjoy this story. I recommend it for fantasy readers of all ages.

I absolutely loved this book. It was jam-packed with action, twists and turns. It's perfect for the younger crowd. The details in this book are awesome, and I love the setting of the story. Loved it! I recommend reading the 3 first three books. But this book has so many details and backstory that it could be read on its own. These books are totally for the kids or adults who like adventures with fairies and knights, and princesses.

This is the forth book in this series and I absolutely plan on reading the first books in the series. I love learning about the different types of faeries in the story and just the world building as a whole. I plan on rereading this book when I start at the beginning of the series because I simply can’t get enough of this universe. I love Yara and Issac and the other characters and I can’t wait to see them again. I’m so grateful to have been gifted a copy of this book.

Did you Know?
- This book was the most challenging for me to begin. Once Isaac and Yara reached Vietnam, I knew exactly what I wanted to happen, but not what they would be doing during the eighteen months prior.
- I cried probably about five times during the first draft. I’ve never had a character die on page before and when I had the realization that it needed to happen, I was quite sad. I dreaded when the time would come to write that scene. I am someone who experiences “maladaptive daydreams,” which allows to me to feel/hear and otherwise experience the scenes I see in my head, which I find helpful while writing. One of the most surprising scenes that made me cry was actually Isaac’s phone call to his mom before facing the Eastern Knight. As a mom, I know exactly how I would feel to receive phone call like that and wanting to comfort my son.
- I didn’t know the true identity of the High King until I first visualized Cristo’s scene at the end. Originally, I only saw what Isaac and Yara experienced, but when I revisualized from Cristo’s perspective, I was shocked to learn who was responsible.
Notable Characters
Issac
At 15, Isaac has been a Light Keeper for 3 years. He struggles to find balance as a regular teenager who wants to date and play on his high school’s baseball team and the stresses of trying to save the world. He tries to internalize the negative thoughts and only focus on the good, but it weighs on him. Unlike some jaded Light Keepers, it matters to him that he only traps bad faeries.
Yara
Yara can’t help but feel a little jealous that Isaac has a life outside of being a Light Keeper. Leaning into the other side of her bloodline helps her to feel like she belongs to something--matters to someone. Doubts rise to the surface again when more experienced Guardians chastise the way she works with Isaac. Over the mission she realizes that she not only wants Isaac around, but needs him, too.
Cristo
For over two years, Cristo has lived and worked with the children to stop the High King. For 2 years, he’s watched and listened to their interactions and banter. He’s trained with them but, surprisingly, become part of a team. Though he’s still not thrilled with the situation, he’s become accustomed to it and doesn’t mind as much. They are starting to trust him, and it’s quite nice.
Prince Teris
Catching up on years of missed time isn’t easy, especially when the High King has been terrorizing the faerie lands. There is also the daughter he’s not had the chance to truly know and desires to gain her trust. Isaac and Yara desire his help to stop the High King and his knights, but Prince Teris knows the importance of them figuring things out on their own.
Ariella
The Seeing Eye made Ariella believe that Isaac is the answer to restoring the peace in the faerie lands, and she wants to do her part by helping him. She has made many mistakes in her life and believes that if she can do this, she’ll be someone her sister would be proud of. No matter what she chooses to do, she approaches it with a smile and positive attitude.
