Discover the second book in the Keeper's Chronicles, where a young woman masters of the possibilities of time and space, maintaining the balance between worlds to protect Earth. Claire Hansen was a Keeper, gifted--or cursed--with the job of being one of Earth's Guardians, "Summoned" to areas where anomalies existed, where rifts had opened--or had been opened. Such places were the world's danger spots where, if they weren't sealed in time, all the minions of Hell might break through. After she'd closed the portal into Hell at the Elysian Fields Guest House, Claire and her talking cat, Austin, found they'd acquired a new companion--Dean. Though Dean was a Bystander and shouldn't have been allowed to even remember Keepers existed, somehow in the course of their mutual ordeal at the Elysian Fields, he'd become an indispensable part of Claire's life. She knew she should change his memories and force him to leave her. Any other course was bound to lead to disaster. But as it turned out, it was already too late, for without Dean around Claire could easily become a danger to herself and the very fabric of space and time. Yet with Dean around--and a little of her sister Diana's meddling thrown in--the world was headed straight for Chaos. And Claire was about to face a challenge beyond her wildest imagining--a catastrophe created by the power of love--when an angel and a devil each manifested in the mortal world as fully endowed teenagers, who didn't have a clue how to handle their all-too-human bodies, raging hormones, and opposing needs to do good and evil....… (más)

Sequel to Summon the Keeper, starring the same cast of lovable characters: Rigid Keeper Claire, her sassy sister Diana, sarcastic cat Austin, and the righteously upright Dean. (They fight crime!)

The plot on this particular go-round concerns an angel and a demon who manifest on Earth as hormonally-afflicted teenagers. Wacky hijinks ensue! Claire and Co. have to clean up the resulting havoc!

The Second Summoning is a step forward from its predecessor: more tightly plotted with the same wise-cracking tone. ( )

Still like Austin, Dean, and Diana, but Claire is a little too self-righteous. I'd forgotten that but about her character. Also, Hell arguing with itself is still funny. ( )

After closing the portal to hell, Claire and her talking cat, Austin, acquired a new companion--Dean, who was a Bystander and should not have remembered Keepers existed. But with Dean around, and a little of her sister Diana's meddling--the world is heading for Chaos, and Claire is about to face a challenge beyond her wildest imagination.
I love the undercurrent of humour that runs through all of Tanya Huff's books. I also love that many of her books reference Canadian places that are familiar to me. I realized as I was reading this book just how few books I read take place in Canada. I do not choose my book based on Canadian content or writers or settings so when one of the books chosen for other reasons just happens to mention all the places I love...it gives me a particular joy and pleasure. That aside, the hero and heroine are good and I adore the cat (and find myself worrying about the cat) ( )

I love how Tanya Huff writes the perfect mix of sci-fi/fantasy that has both humor and a serious twist. No matter what series of hers I read I find myself thoroughly enjoying it. The main character in this is a kick butt heroine but not in the traditional sense and I love all of the secondary characters so very much, especially her cat. ( )
