    Like a huge pimple on the face of humanity the Kold threat pops and evil corruption erupts. The Gatekeeper Academy is open for business and Jules and her friends are students. Hidden in plain sight, the Kold have infiltrated all levels of Earth, New Speros and Haven. It's up to Jules to save the students and the Academy from the terror the Kold will unleash. Can she manage it without her Iskos abilities? We'll see!

    All my favorites are in action to save the Alliance. Jules, Hugo, Patty and Dean Jr., Slate, Dean, Natalie, Magnum and Mary all play their role in saving the Academy and Haven. All our old friends play their parts and it's so good to see all of them again. Like a favorite pair of old worn blue jeans, the cast slips on comfortably. All the weak spots are worn and ragged, saggy and loose in all the right placrs, the point is, I'm used to seeing all our heroes and look forward to their presence. It's an outstanding crew and they run a tight ship and I love each and every one of them. The continuing tale of the Survivors is an amazing storyline, told by a master storyteller. I have so thoroughly enjoyed the Academy segment, I look forward to more adventures! This is a great read!

    Loving this series. Wasn’t sure what to expect and I’m pleasantly surprised at how engrossed I am with the ever expanding universe it contains. Eagerly on to book 11 already and I only started book 1 a week or so ago.

    Bringing people together is easy but keeping them together is the real challenge. So many races have come together in harmony on a single planet but of course not everyone feels the same. The Alliance has a traitor in their midst. One that has learned to blend in and infiltrate. This time will Dean Parker be enough?

    I thought sure this was the last book in the series, but there's one more, and it's being released on my birthday. 😉 Coincidence? Or did my addiction to the series nudge the release date? All I know for sure is that these books are all well - written, with action, drama, good old-fashioned clean romance, and justice for all. I'm grateful for the series continuing, and look forward to the next story.

    After reading nothing but hard military sci fi for a year The Survivors series has been a breath of fresh air! No fussy tech, amazing character development that you actually care about and can relate to all the changes they have gone through.

    Book 10 had me captivated and could not put it down. My favorite book so far in the series. Lots of layers! Major props to the creator/author for sharing this universe with us I’m in for the long haul.

    Reviewed in Canada on November 24, 2022
    We get to start this story saying good-bye to an old friend. Too bad someone wants to kill off a lot of the attendees while they sleep. Dean's daughter, Jules, is slowly coming in to her Iskios powers. And she finally gets to attend the Gatekeepers Academy. Her best friend, Patty, is there, too, at least for a little while. Poor Jules is so bereft when her friend is no longer at the Academy. She has a hard time of things and is taken with Professor Thompson when he takes a keen interest in her. And away from the Academy there are stirrings of the Kold getting ready to cause major problems. Poor Dean just wants a quiet life but is constantly being drawn into the Alliance that he helped to create. I just loved how all this and more is brought to us by Nathan Hystad's great writings. Looking forward to learning more of these friends and how their life unfolds.
