Great Review the keepers seems to be a fascinating novel that goes beyond the existence of just one planet and a thriller with government keeping Jonas and his family captive just for them to experiment on him making me wonder how truly special Jonas is that even the government want him.

Your review of The Keepers wonderfully captures the imaginative and emotional depth of the story. It is interesting how Jonas exists on multiple planets. Thanks for such a thoughtful and engaging review!

The book “The keepers” I felt like they put too much pressure on the boy because he was to young to experience such, also I felt like the book is too far from reality meaning we can’t really relate but I like that they mentioned things like the Government.

This review actually makes you want to read the book, better than any previous info I've had when visiting the amazon site. The new premise instalation can be a bit stuck for someone as narrow minded as I am, but the real subjectivation that comes with the govern and military intervention makes the book far more interest than any others that deal with that same matter but always ignore which real world implications the out-of-natural abilities and acts of the characters would spark around the world.

The review is comprehensive in all aspects. I liked the details mentioned by the reviewer. That's an intriguing storyline. The idea similar to the multiverse. The suspense and mystery factors, along with the different worlds, will make the reading special. I hope the scientific side of the matter doesn't dominate. I care that the fictional plot is well-crafted. Congrats on BOTD

This books sounds absolutely fascinating! I understand that it is fiction, but it makes me wonder if any part of the story is experience from real life, sprinkled in with a touch of sci-fi, and a dash of mystery. That is what it appears to be, in my opinion. Your review is quite insightful and does a great job of giving enough detail worthy of the "carrot on the stick" concept.

This book sounds like another sci-fi movie. The plot is interesting. I liked your review specifically because it addresses the concern about whether the story is going to be of a far-fetched and unbelievable kind. Thanks for the insightful review.

What if you were born with a special ability like dream trekking? Jonas was. Every night he would dream trek to any of several planets. The government found out and wanted to study his special ability. What kind of life would he be leading? Find out in The Keepers.

The plot of the book is something new and unigue and very intriguing. A person who exists on eight planets simultaneously and visits these places in his dreams. It will be interesting to read this book. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

The book is interesting. No lying, I mean a boy being present in different realms and being able to dream about them. And then he gets to experience those things and what not. Also the concept and toll it can take on young mind and ability to tolerate such things us applaudable.

This book has an original concept of time/space travel. I would love to discover more of Jonas' adventures, which will be possible thanks to BOTD. Thank you for this well-written review, Lisa!

The mysteries of universe are nice explored in the book "The Keepers" by Michael D Komeshak. The book resents the unique and intriguing premise of a boy named Jonas who has duplicates.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.

"The Keepers" by Michael D. Komeshak presents a gripping and unique premise of a boy who "dream treks" to other planets. With vivid writing and rich character development, it’s an intriguing page-turner that keeps readers guessing and fully immersed. Congrats on being BOTD!
