This is the complete set of Eva Pohler's Gatekeeper's saga. I have read each one in the series, and I have loved them all. It's a great new twist on Greek gods in a modern day world. We see the story begin with Therese as a teenager. She's mourning the loss of her parents in a car accident in which they are all involved in. Amid the accident, she has an in between life and death moment in which she meets Thanatos, the god of death. Than is immediately intrigued with her because no one has ever really shown him any sort of affection, let alone a mere human. No living mortal can be in his presence without life draining affects. He makes a deal to partially forgo his powers so that he can spend time with the girl that has captivated him. The two end up falling for each other and face several challenges along the way of trying to make their relationship work. Some of the gods are friends, and others are jealous or worried that Therese and Than's relationship will cause future problems for them. This sparks a division among them and battle lines are drawn. Each action packed book brings forth a new obstacle for the couple to overcome. Alliances will be made, conflict abounds, and relationships will be put to the test. If you like mythology, you will love this saga! Just make sure you set aside plenty of time when you start with the series, because you won't want to stop reading until you've finished the whole set.

This series is great. It has a great combination of greek mythology, romance and suspense. I highly recommend reading this series as you will not be disappointed.

The Gatekeeper's Sons: I am a huge fan of Greek Mythology so when I stumbled upon this book I had to check it out to see what it was all about....WWWWEEEELLLL let me tell you that I am so happy that I did! I love how Eva combines modern day with that of the Greek Gods. The Characters, Theresa andare so great together and make such a great storyline but then you have the added twist of Than's twin Hip! Eva does a great job at describing the people, surroundings and events.

The Gatekeeper's Challenge: Therese has been away from Than for almost a year and life hasn't been easy. Than has however been trying to find a way to make Therese a god without going against the promise he made to the God's. In the grand scheme of things Hades has agreed to help in making her a god if she completes a series of challenges that basically Therese is destined to fail.

This book picks up where book 1 left off and I have to say that I am absolutely loving this series!! I feel in love with Therese and Than in the first book and their struggle to be together. This book is a continuation of their strength together and their will to find a way to be together forever!

The Gatekeeper's Daughter: Book 2 left off with Therese finally becoming a god and you would think life would be good for her and Than..nope now she must find her purpose and if she doesn't she will become mortal again. Then to top this off Ares is after her...life as a god just isn't easy LOL

I absolutely love this series and as it goes on I am loving them even more. Just like the previous two books I didn't want to stop reading. I need to find out what will happen to Therese and Than as well as what those pesky and not so pesky gods would do. I absolutely love the different personalities of the gods and how well Eva combines them into the modern world.

The Gatekeeper's House: Book 4 picks right up where book 3 left off and the author does such a great job of making the story flow you don't feel like you're on a new book :) There is a great combination of greek mythology, romance, and on the edge of your seat suspense you are going to fall in love with the story, characters and the author! A great read in an already great series!

The Gatekeeper's Secret: This is the fifth book of the series and once again Eva didn't disappoint. Therese and Than are planning to get married and Pete is desperately trying to tell her something. When she doesn't answer him, he goes to the one who he feels could help Zeus (we all know this is not good). This then sets off another series of events that test Therese and her desire to make everything right.

Eva once again writes a great book

The Gatekeeper's Promise: This is the final book in the series and let me tell you I was enthralled with the story right from the start. There was so much that was going on in this book both with the main characters and the gods. Therese and Than are expecting their twins and there is still a "war" going on amongst the gods then to top it off, Jen is pulled into it.

I loved how the story progressed and how it ended, I just hope there is more to come (perhaps a spinoff with Hip and Jen) :)

Pohler is very detailed in her writing. Everything is precisely worded to convey a specific thought, feeling, or image. Each and every word seems to have been carefully chosen to build a cohesive overall picture. Everything is vivid and extremely well laid out. She creates a world that you can imagine yourself walking into. I love the fact that this story is mythologically accurate. I also like the fact that Pohler includes a variety of Greek gods in her writing, rather than simply using the Olympiad as so many authors attempting to write about Greek mythology do. Pohler manages to remain mythologically accurate while telling a completely unique and one of a kind tale. I also appreciate the differentiation in writing style between Earth and Olympus. Everything on Olympus is much larger and more elaborate than Earth, as it should be. Her writing also sports an intensity rarely seen in a YA novel, while also giving you some very good laughs. She works her magic with the same smooth, approachable writing style that we’ve come to know and love to create a work of creative brilliance. There is an air of mystery and suspense that winds its way through this tale. Pohler combines intense emotional scenes with action packed sequences to always keep you on your toes.

I appreciate that Pohler attacked some very difficult topics in this series. Not only does she entertain us throughout, but loss, drugs, sex, and abuse are brought up in ways that make them approachable and open them up for conversation. These can be very difficult subjects to even think about, but Pohler tackles them and winds them into her phenomenal tale.

The characters in this novel are quite well developed. You may not know their entire life histories, but you do get to know everything that is pertinent to the story and to let you get to know the characters. It was very refreshing to read a story by an author who can differentiate between necessary development to create a well-developed character, and giving an entire life history that slows down the storyline because it isn’t actually relevant to the plot. The character development continues with leaps and bounds throughout the series. Overall, her character development is unique in that the characters, regardless of their age, learn and admit things about themselves as we learn them. Self-growth and realisation is a never-ending process in this story.

I am thoroughly in love with this box set and this series. The mythology is sound, as is the writing. As a whole, this story was informative, enlightening, and a pleasure to read. I laughed, I cried, I enjoyed. It’s a story that parents and teens alike will love.

Gatekeeper's Son
In books there are several things I look at when buying and extras that push me over the edge to quickly buy. First cover is most important that is the first thing a reader sees. Mrs. Pohler nailed the cover it is simple not over the top but very beautiful. One thing I notice is lately covers have the same models and it is refreshing to see new faces. Next I look to see if its a paranormal book this one is a special plus, plus it is paranormal romance with my favorite topic Mythology. You can never go wrong writing mythology. The author stayed within the realms of mythology without taking too much liberties and messing with the legends. The story was so full of adventure you couldn't help but keep turning the pages without stopping. The characters were well developed. You couldn't help but feel the saddness when Theresa lost her parents. Then to go through what she thought was a dream. The interaction between the characters only enhanced this story. So if you love romance, mythology, YA, and adventure this is your series. I cant wait to read the next book.

The Gatekeeper's Challenge
This was a great follow up to book 1 The Gatekeepers Son. Therese and Thantos are like ying and yang to one another giving balance between light and death beautifully. I've always enjoyed reading anything based on Greek mythology but when you add a modern twist that's a plus in my books. In my journey through the saga I have thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it to readers of all ages. I also loved the consistency of each one of the covers. I received a complimentary copy in exchange for a honest and unbiased opinion.

The Gatekeeper's Daughter
I loved the smooth transition from book 2 The Gatekeepers Challenge. Ares is at it again. He never seems satisfied with anything and seems to always like to make all the rules. This is definitely a book that you can't or want to put down. The author keeps you help hostage from page one till the end. Hades even jumps in to try and help Therese as much as he can. I highly recommend this for readers of all ages. I received a complimentary copy in exchange for a honest and unbiased opinion.

The Gatekeeper's House:
This author knows how to suck the reader into her stories. The flow from three to four was seamless and this has been the consistency throughout the series. The descriptions and settings really create such vivid pictures in the mind if the readers. If you love mythology, romance, suspense this is definitely the series for you. Each one complements and enhances previous book. I highly recommend this for readers of all ages. I received a complimentary copy in exchange for a honest and unbiased opinion.

The Gatekeeper's Secret
This has been such a fantastic series. Seamless transitions between each book but enough drama to entice the readers to patiently wait for next book. I have grown to love the many different quests and characters new and reoccurring. The important thing is the author doesn't assume everyone knows what each God and goddess is in charge of she provides alittle background into them. Each book is a story to be reckoned with really recommend reading in order they are intended. I highly recommend this for readers of all ages. I received a complimentary copy in exchange for a honest and unbiased opinion.

I absolutely loved this series!! If you have any interest in Greek mythology, you will love this story about a teenage girl who meets and falls for the God of Death and all the adventures they end up on along with the others Gods. Ms. Pohler is extremely detailed and true to the myths we have all come to enjoy and love. She honors them in a new way by bringing the Gods of Mt. Olympus into the modern age and throws some twists in of her own. I found the story creative and thrilling. There is romance, heartache, adventure and the ending we all want. I bought the whole series on a hunch I would love it and I was right! I can't wait to read Ms. Pohler's other series.

Eva Pohler writes a wonderful coming of age story. Throw in some Greek gods, magic, friends and you have a mythical story that stays with you.

Follow Therese as she feels crippling loss, a love that a spans a world, fights, and almost wars, just to have her happy ever after.

This story is also about friendship. Doing all that you can for a friend.

There are some tough subjects discussed in these books that may turn some people off, but it is subjects that can and do happen in normal life.

I fell in love with this series of books. I'm still in love with them even after reading them more then once.

Absolutely one of the most enjoyable series I have ever read!!! It covers many issues like death, abuse, and so much more, while sticking to the Greek element. The mythology is to die for, and it sheds new light on some of the gods who haven't gotten the love and respect they deserve in the past in my opinion. There is never a dull moment, and if you take this adventure with Therese, I promise you won't regret it!!! Do yourself a favor, and give these a read!

This series is amazing. No one has ever caught my attention with greek mythology the way that Eva has. I love to read about all of the gods. But a love story between a god and a human was outstanding. I want to read more. Hopefully in the future Hip will get his own true love story the way that Than did. Thank you again Eva for bringing sure amazing stories to the world.

There are no words to describe how much I absolutely loved this series! I was never, and I mean NEVER a fan of mythology.....until I came across the works of Eva Pohler. The modern day twists and turns on the gods and goddesses actually kept me interested and entertained all through the series, in ways my teachers couldn't, lol. The romance, action and suspense didn't hurt either!

These were awesome books. The books were well written with wonderful characters. Each book goes seamlessly right into the next. They were exciting, sometimes sad, and sometimes terrifying or terrific. I would really love to see these made into a movie or series on tv.

This is an incredible YA series for anyone who loves Greek mythology! I enjoyed the way Eva brought back the mythology and not only has some of the history of the gods but also created new tales for them. There are many challenges in each book, not only for Kira but the others as well. I have also reviewed each book individually, but once you pick up the first book you will want to read them all! Each one brings more excitement to the story, and none of them leave you disappointed!
