It’s 1927. Letty Hart’s father is long gone, but his old winery provides a meager wage and a legal livelihood for selling sacramental wine.

In an underworld dominated by merciless men, Letty is building an empire.

Story
Los Angeles brims with opportunity in 1959—though not for aspiring fashion designer Cordelia Mai Yin, the first-generation child of Vietnamese immigrants, who finds the city unkind to outsiders and as dispirited as her own family. When Cordi rents a cheap loft in an old apartment building, she quickly warms to kindred souls Tessa, Audrey, and Silly. They also want better things and have pasts they’d rather forget. That they all share the same middle name makes their friendship seem like destiny.

Publisher's summary
What happens when nature will no longer stand by and accept its destruction? A female fire chief discovers an ancient world rooted with secrets that can save—or destroy—in the newest fantasy by Veronica G. Henry, author of Bacchanal.
Beneath the forest floor, they watch…
Syrah Carthan doesn’t know why she accepted a job as the first female fire chief at Sequoia National Park, where, decades earlier, a forest fire killed her parents. That day, her brother, Romelo, disappeared, as if pulled into the scorched earth itself. Syrah has always had an uncanny affinity for the natural wonders of the park she protects, but after she sanctions a prescribed burn that goes terribly wrong, she quits her position in disgrace.
However, when another devastating wildfire breaks out, Syrah, reluctantly pulled back into action, discovers an unknown world that has existed underground since the beginning of time. This secret society, built around the forest’s complex root system, is now divided into two factions. One is ruled by the Keeper, the giant sequoias’ benevolent caretaker. The other by a mysterious undoer, who’s determined to wage war on humanity. Through him, nature can retaliate and wipe out the earth’s careless ravagers for good.
Torn between human loyalty and preserving the delicate balance of nature, Syrah must make a choice—one that will change both her destiny and that of the world above and below forever.
Critic reviews
“Golden Voice narrator Robin Miles brings a sense of wonder to a near future fantasy that explores the consequences of climate change.… Miles voices Syrah as outwardly confident yet clearly marked by her early experiences. Her soft, curious tones contrast with the harsh ones of Romelo, a caustic young man raised among the reclusive supernatural tree Keepers Syrah has stumbled upon. Miles skillfully builds the tension between the two in alternating chapters as humanity's fate hangs in the balance.”—AudioFile Magazine
“Henry digs in to themes of family, environmentalism, and the connection between humans and the natural world…”—Publishers Weekly
“Henry’s near-future fantasy world is interesting and beautiful, with lush descriptions of the forest and the fantastical world hidden within.”—Library Journal

Story
In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Abandoned by her family, alone on the wrong side of the color line with little to call her own, Eliza Meeks is coming to terms with what she does have. It’s a gift for communicating with animals. To some, she’s a magical tender. To others, a she-devil. To a talent prospector, she’s a crowd-drawing oddity. And the Bacchanal Carnival is Eliza’s ticket out of the swamp trap of Baton Rouge. Among fortune-tellers, carnies, barkers, and folks even stranger than herself, Eliza finds a new home. But the Bacchanal is no ordinary carnival. An ancient demon has a home there too.

Gaius Aurelius Constantine Heliogabalus Thrax (who would much rather people call him Robert) has recently inherited his deceased dad’s job as a dragon catcher/exterminator, a career he detests with all his heart in part because he likes dragons, feeling a kinship with them, but mainly because his dream has always been the impossible one of transcending his humble origin to someday become a prince’s valet.

Nature vs Nurture
Thank you Netgalley for the advance reader copy of The Canopy Keepers by Veronica G. Henry in exchange for an honest review. I loved this book, although it made me look at how we are destroying our planet. I live in California and every summer our fire season gets longer and worse. I thought it was very interesting to have a whole species who lived behind the veil and took care of the forests and what they would think of humans.

Very slow start but a good listen.
The book has a very slow start and I nearly stopped but I’m happy I continued. It’s a good story; different from the usual “fantasy” story but not a compelling, I-can’t-wait-to-get-back-to-it, kind.
The narrator is amazing. I could swear there was a full cast! Each character has their own voice and it was never in question who was speaking. Her male voices are entirely credible, and I can’t begin to imagine how that’s done. Bravo!
