The Guardian of the Palace: Book 1 of The Guardian League

By Steven J. Morris

Book Overview

Some doors are sealed for a reason.

Magic isn't real.
Red Hernandez is very sure of that.

She wants a quiet life after Special Forces-just a steady security job at a half-finished Manhattan skyscraper.

But then a sister tower implodes in a way physics can't explain.
Witnesses report creatures in the smoke.
And something hunts her in the tunnels beneath.

Red wants answers. What she gets instead is an elf with a sword, a troll with a wry sense of humor, and a dwarf who believes every battle requires an audience. They insist an ancient enemy has crossed into our world-and Red becomes an accidental gatekeeper simply because she's standing on the fault line when it cracks open.

As a hidden war erupts in the shadows of New York City, Red must decide: run from the past that nearly destroyed her... or fight for a world she's only just beginning to believe in.

A veteran with nothing left to lose.
A threat born of magic and shadow.
A team she never saw coming.

The Guardian of the Palace launches the action-packed Guardian League series-perfect for fans of urban fantasy, modern-world magic, found family, and heroines who refuse to back down.
