In this riveting series opener, a telepathic girl must figure out why she is the key to her brand-new world before the wrong person finds the answer first.
Twelve-year-old Sophie has never quite fit into her life. She’s skipped multiple grades and doesn’t really connect with the older kids at school, but she’s not comfortable with her family, either. The reason? Sophie’s a Telepath, someone who can read minds. No one knows her secret—at least, that’s what she thinks…
But the day Sophie meets Fitz, a mysterious (and adorable) boy, she learns she’s not alone. He’s a Telepath too, and it turns out the reason she has never felt at home is that, well…she isn’t. Fitz opens Sophie’s eyes to a shocking truth, and she is forced to leave behind her family for a new life in a place that is vastly different from what she has ever known.
But Sophie still has secrets, and they’re buried deep in her memory for good reason: The answers are dangerous and in high-demand. What is her true identity, and why was she hidden among humans? The truth could mean life or death—and time is running out.

Keeper of the lost Cities, is an adventure packed and mystery filled book that you will enjoy to your hearts content. It is a page turner that will keep you up at night. The main character is a girl called Sophie Foster who discovers she is an elf. My favourite character is Sophie Foster as has the courage of a lion. She is willing to risk her life to protect her family and friends. Sophie is not the Black Swans little puppet she is a fighter. I recommend this book to all people who enjoy an eventful one in a life time caper and plot twists that will make you question everything you know and believe in. This is also perfect for all Harry Potter fans.

Amazing. Just amazing. Too good to be true. A completely different world. Shannon Messenger just writes too good. And I love Dex the best. He’s just like Leo, a Technopath, funny, ect. I love him. And yup you definitely should read it! It’s like the best book ever!

This is one of the best books I have ever read!!! Sophie Foster has a secret that no-one knows: she has been a telepath from the age of five! Or at least, she thinks no-one knows. But one day on a school trip to the history museum, she meets a boy called Fitz, who has been searching for her for twelve years... Fitz is also a telepath and takes Sophie to the lost cities, where there are Crystal Palace's, gnomes, imps and so much more... Sophie discovers that she, like Fitz and nearly get rest of the lost cities, is an elf and is soon whisked off to Foxfire, one of the best schools for elves and makes a ton of friends, uncovers secrets, and harnesses her skills. But Sophie has secrets planted inside her mind. Secrets that some people want...
