The Keeper: Mary Bennet's Extraordinary Journey is a captivating novel which is so different from anything ever written in the genre, that it occupied a place that was unexplored until this moment. I hope this is a trend that came to stay because it is indeed compelling, fresh and stimulating. I highly recommend this book to readers who want something a little different than usual and that will stimulate them as readers. This is not the average JAFF book, and the author was able to think outside of the box, so if you're looking for something that differs from the regular boring plot while following the entire Bennet family's story, this is the book for you. LisaMarie 137 writes of The Keeper: Mary was a character I felt had been mostly skipped over or mocked in P&P, so the idea of her getting her own story was intriguing. To have her get such an adventure was even better! Once the story got past the world establishment, it just keeps moving constantly. It was a story I just couldn't stop until I had finished it! Looking forward to more in the series! A Careful Reader comments about Volume One of the Wardrobe Series: I absolutely love all of Don Jacobson's books. He combines excellent narrative skills and description with interesting speculative fiction. As a historian, he adds wonderful historical detail. Also an exciting narrative. Looking forward to more titles.
