Review    Marcus Alexander has only gone and done it again.Book 2 in the Keeper of the Realm series really doesn't disappoint, chocca with endless imagination.The story is so vivid, a reflection on how good Marcus's writing is. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from beginning to end, it never faltered.
I liked the character of Edge Darkmount, he is scarily untrustworthy but wins Charlie over by promising to decipher her mysterious pendant she holds for a price- if she will help him get revenge on Bane by carrying out a dangerous mission where she faces demons, gods and experiences torment and a darkness that mixes with her keeper powers to find and bring him back an urn which contains his 'god'.
She completes this task and realises she cannot trust the evil lord as he turns on her. The future of Bellania relies on Charlie's special powers. The evil lord conjours up a stone army via his god to advance upon Bane. Clever Charlie banishes the evil lord through a portal in the middle of nowhere and the urn with his god in it to the bottom of a lake again in the middle of nowhere and with the help of her fellow keepers, they combine their skill and power and take over the entire stone army to advance on Banes army that is pulling Bellania to shreds.

5 stars given.
