 Hello everybody welcome back. This is Keith at 30 seconds sci-fi this week I'm going to tell you about the Border Keeper by Kirsten Hall. The first few chapters were given away by a torah.com a year or two ago, and I Enjoyed those chapters so much that I immediately went and bought The full e-book, which is really rare for me. I really had to enjoy this thing The Border Keeper is an ancient woman who lives in a decrepit shack in the desert And her presence somehow maintains the border between The human world and the world of the dead and she is visited by a mysterious stranger And she can't figure out why he's there. It was really really intriguing. I really loved it but then I bought the rest of the book and was Disappointed as happens so many times about halfway through the book It started I felt like it started to get slow really slow About three quarters of the way through it came to a dead stop. There were new characters being introduced Left and right. I couldn't tell who was doing what what was going on They were doing and saying things that were obviously supposed to be epic and shocking But I couldn't tell a real disappointment a really strong beginning That I wish had gone better I'll give it a soft recommendation because the beginning was so good and the ideas were so good but beyond that Thank you for watching this week Please become a sponsor follow the link on screen and in the description below to make a monthly pledge Or you can make a one-time pledge to help me out here Please subscribe to this channel if you haven't already and give the video a thumbs up Bye
