m3l89 's review for:
The Soulkeepers
by G.P. Ching
After the disappearance of his Mother; Jacob Lau is sent to stay with an Uncle he never knew existed in the small all-American town of Paris. Quickly, Jacob meets Malini another outsider to the town and they strike up a friendship. Then, strange things start to happen; Jacob manages to fight off the town bully using water!
Dr Silva lives in a gothic style house over the road from Jacob, but she has a very unusual garden containing a magic tree that grew out of the soul of her dead husband.
It all sounds very farfetched, but the different aspects of the plot knitted together nicely to create, what I feel is a well written, well thought out YA fantasy novel. The religious aspect was a surprise, but served the plot well as a backstory to the origins of the Soulkeepers.
Overall a fantastic novel!
