A usurped prince prepares to take up the mantle of a deadly assassin and reclaim his kingdom, his people, and his slain gods in this epic fantasy from a USA Today bestselling author.

Cyrus was only twelve years old when his gods were slain, his country invaded, and his parents—the king and queen—beheaded in front of him. Held prisoner in the invader's court for years, Cyrus is suddenly given a chance to escape and claim his revenge when a mysterious group of revolutionaries comes looking for a figurehead. They need a hero to strike fear into the hearts of the imperial and to inspire and unite the people. They need someone to take up the skull mask and swords and to become the legendary "Vagrant"—an unparalleled hero and assassin of otherworldly skill.

But all is not as it seems. Creating the illusion of a hero is the work of many, and Cyrus will soon discover the true price of his vengeance. Action & Adventure Epic Fantasy Heartfelt

Critic reviews

"Dalglish sticks the landing with his final Keepers fantasy ... This is a worthy finale."—Publishers Weekly
"Dark, gory, yet still inspiring... . Dalglish’s approach to this third book in the series (after Ravencaller) keeps the returning characters fresh, relevant, and impactful in their necessary roles to both uplift and restrict the responsibilities of the Chainbreaker."—Library Journal
"Soulkeeper is a fast-paced, page-turning ride with a great, likeable main character in Devin Eveson. It's the definition of entertaining"—John Gwynne, author of Malice on Soulkeeper
"Dalglish has created a rich and intriguing world."—Kirkus on Soulkeeper
"With strong world building, imaginative monsters, and a capable system of magic, this series will please readers who enjoy dark epic fantasy with engaging characters."—Booklist on Ravencaller
"Fans will love the second installment of this dark fantasy about very human characters beset by inhuman dangers."—Kirkus on Ravencaller
"A dark and lush epic fantasy brimming with magical creatures and terrifying evil....Dalglish's world building is subtle and fluid, and he weaves the history, magical workings, and governance of his world within the conversations and camaraderie of his characters. Readers of George R. R. Martin and Patrick Rothfuss will find much to enjoy here."—Booklist on Soulkeeper
"Dalglish manages to combine familiar elements in exciting ways... that's sure to keep readers turning pages."—Publishers Weekly on Soulkeeper

If you like David's Shadow dance series, you'll like this too. They have a very similar feel about them.

Another solid story!

Honestly, I think I'm just going to have to actually read this one to decide whether or not I like the story itself. The narrators are just shy of monotone, not to mention the number if mispronounced words throughout the entire book. I'm not even going to bother with the rest of the series as audiobook, the story has potential, I just can't tell if it's actually good because the horridness of the narrators make it so hard to focus on the story.

This seemed like a good story and something I would enjoy. Within two minutes I was angry that I had wasted a credit. The male narrator sounds like he’s trying to force his voice deeper to sound… more intense? The character voicing is bad. The damage narrator is bland but not as grating as the male. I might read this book on kindle but I couldn’t make it past the second chapter listening. And that was only in an attempt to listen long enough to leave a review.

Narration caused instant buyer’s remorse
