Overview

Drew and his friends face an age-old sect that's determined to claim a treasure and ancient power. They race from the U.S. to Canada, pursued closely by the mysterious Brotherhood.

Danny Hennigar, a member of the Oak Island Tourism Society, states, "I devoured [Guardian] in an hour and a half. It was a fun romp through the back woods, islands, and rivers of Nova Scotia, culminating, of course, with the dramatic moment on Oak Island when all was revealed. Wow, the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew meet Harry Potter on Nova Scotia's Oak Island."

Editorial Reviews

Deborah Hockenberry
"Promise me you'll find the journal and search for the treasure," gasped Drew's dying mother. "It's your destiny." ~from Guardian by Katie Hines.

Three months later, three teenagers sat around a campfire roasting marshmallows. Drew Newman is just about to tell his friends a secret when a man steps out of the darkness. The man carries an old fashioned sword and wears a long hooded cloak. "Where is it," the man asks. "Where is the book?" Who is this man and what does he want?

Meet the Author

Writing on and off since middle school, Katie Hines fell in love with fantasy in reading Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings trilogy. Having read Terry Brooks, David Eddings and other fantasy writers, it was natural that she write in that genre. She is working on another middle grade urban fantasy and lives in South Carolina with her husband and family.

    Great Urban Fantasy

    Guardian takes place in a modern world and incorporates the normal with magic, fantasy, and the quest for the Holy Grail. Drew must use a magic journal to find a treasure and fulfill his destiny. It soon becomes clear to Drew, and his friends, Mattie and Javon, the journey they must take is full of danger, surprise, and action.

    The author, Katie Hines, keeps the story moving forward with fast paced action sure to delight any teen or preteen. Her descriptions, intricate plot, and fresh verb usage remind me of my favorite author, Cornelia Funke.

    The following passage, an example of her descriptions, is ingenious and full of energy. "An early cold snap arrived with a vengeance, stealing into homes and rattling old bones. Senior citizens cornered anyone who would listen, telling that a cold Maine winter would soon follow. Snaking its long fingers through the truck window Mr. Newman kept cracked, the cold touched and chilled the three young people who rode to the ferry, Bar Harbor's The Pirate's Run."

    This story is birthed from the history of the Holy Grail and the Knight's Templar. The author, having done her homework well, intertwines fantasy and history seamlessly to create an intriguing mystery full of exciting twists and turns. Usually I can guess the ending of a book before it's over. Ms. Hines had me guessing until the end. Way to go!

    As a retired teacher, I recommend this book for reluctant readers and reading buffs alike.
