About this listen

I’ve been called Hero, Protector, even an Angel. But to act in this manner, there must be an act of brutal savagery. Sorrow, terror, pain is the Hero’s experience. To be a Hero means to live in a nightmare.

My name is Emma, and this is my life now. I remember tales about heroes as a kid; full of excitement and fantasy endings. But those are just stories. When I got my powers they seemed exciting and fun; but then reality hit. Cosmic war, invading alien fleets, and the Stone Keepers; these are my reality. Those, and other atrocities caused by our own species, overshadow the hero’s path. Atrocities I’m compelled to act upon, which leave everlasting scars - others can’t see. Myself, my partner, and my new friends, are the latest chosen as Gem Keepers. All of the Gem Keepers before us have fallen to a powerful evil. Now, Earth is thrust into a timeless war, against an unimaginable enemy. We must somehow unite our world, or it will all be lost. The ones I love, those who bring me a sense of happiness, will perish. I refuse to let this happen.

So call me a Hero, call me whatever you want. Just understand this was an Imposed Path, and it’s just the beginning.

The Imposed Path is the first book in the Gem Keepers Saga. It follows Emma through her eyes, as she and her new friends are forced into a cosmic war. Powerful enemies, invading alien fleets, and the dark side of human nature; is what she must face. Emma's new found love, and friendships; will be her strongest tools in overcoming these challenges. This series will dive into the dark aftermath of Emma’s many experiences - the physical and emotional impact of being a hero. Pain, sorrow, and terror fill this journey; will love and friendship be enough. How much can a hero endure? Will she be able to keep her promise to the one she loves, and Never Let Go.

Unique Super Heroes

Emma was once a quiet loner bullied by others in her school until the Gems selected her as a keeper! Now, gifted with powers a growing cohort of friends, and an AI mentor, Emma battles the evil arriving and wanting to destroy the earth and the gem keepers. This was not her choice, but rather an imposed path she is forced to take.

The author, Timothy David, Crafts a captivating narrative where young girls confront powerful enemies and alien races interested in a cosmic war while embarking on their harrowing journey of self-discovery marked by pain, sorrow, and fear. He vividly conveys each character's fears and emotions, developing them with depth and accuracy. The plot twists are engaging and unexpected, while the dialogue feels authentic to the narrative and characters. The satisfying ending leaves the series open to further adventure and danger.

The narrator, Tiffany Magnuson, delivers an engaging performance by narrating from Emma's perspective, with clear speech and well-matched tonal inflections that fully captivate and immerse the listener. I found her pace and delivery to be smooth and flawless.

This audiobook offers a compelling twist on the traditional hero narrative, emphasizing and celebrating the strength of female connections.
