The Keeper

Some destinies come calling... even in your nightmares. Fifteen-year-old Marston Ames just wanted a normal life. But after a cross-country move, strained family dynamics, and dreams that leave bruises, "normal" is the last thing on his horizon. When a violent stranger from his nightmares attacks him in the real world, Marston stumbles through a hidden portal-straight into a realm where monsters, magic, and destiny collide. Now he's caught in a centuries-old struggle between light and darkness... and whether he likes it or not, he's at the center of it. Invited to join an ancient Order sworn to protect the balance between realms, Marston is thrust into a world of powerful allies, dangerous enemies, and cryptic prophecies he barely understands. Trusting anyone-including the mysterious girl named Olivia-feels impossible. But as the nightmares bleed into waking life and choices grow deadlier, Marston will have to decide: run from fate... or rise to meet it. Full of heart-pounding twists, reluctant hero moments, and just a spark of slow-burn friendship-to-something-more, The Keeper is perfect for fans of Percy Jackson, Fablehaven, and Keeper of the Lost Cities. If you crave portal fantasy with danger, found family, and a boy who doesn't want to be the hero but kind of has to be... this adventure delivers.
