Johanna Frank decodes an enticing allegory about the human soul and how good and evil battle to have custody. I finished reading sensing something that I cannot explain, but I appreciate it. I recommend you read it because <strong>this is a story that has something to impart to even the most cynical among us."</strong></p><p><em>Reviewer: Vincent Dublado for Readers' Favorite </em></p><p><br></p><p><strong>*****5 STARS*****</strong></p><p><em>"The Gatekeeper's Descendants</em> by Johanna Frank is a sobering book that will <strong>appeal to the reflective mind</strong>. It is also appropriate for people of faith, especially those who believe in the afterlife. Every person deposited in our lives is there for a reason and season, and our deeds are like building tunnels toward the afterlife. <strong>The plot was brilliant </strong>with a unique storyline. There's <strong>so much to say about this beautiful book</strong>. I want more, Johanna."</p><p><em>Reviewer: Jennifer Ibiam for Readers' Favorite</em></p><p><br></p><p><strong>****4 STARS****</strong></p><p>"Johanna Frank has written an entertaining and thoughtful story with <em>The Gatekeeper's Descendants</em>. While there are a lot of religious aspects to the story, I believe it <strong>can be enjoyed by everyone, </strong> even if they are not particularly religious themselves. Pipiera is an interesting character who faces many challenges in her quest, but she doesn't give up easily. Matthew is a typical kid with his own issues. The story moves at a decent pace, and I kept reading to see what happened next. I would <strong>recommend it to fantasy and young adult readers</strong> as I think they would enjoy it."</p><p><em>Reviewer: Samantha Gregory for Readers' Favorite</em></p><br>
