Book excerpt: The Guardians, who hide in the shadows of children’s stories, manipulated history by creating events to avert the world’s eyes. They search for a worthy bloodline to decipher their signs. Will the ones they find use this truth for good or evil? When their beliefs have been manufactured from god’s deception in creating false evidence to appear real. As eternal watchers of humanity, the Guardians wish to understand it. Other gods prefer to deceive and manipulate. While all the divines must respect nature’s laws, they take personal pride in bending them to the breaking point where the keys to unlock the secrets of their very existence reside. The Wellingtons must prove they are committed to uncovering the Guardians’ meddling in our history. They embark on a lonely path to discover where Beauty and the Beast were the true beginning to a new world, Cinder Ella had close ties to a family she never knew, the Pied Piper taught a lesson that no parent dared to experience and Jack was an apple that did not fall far from his tree. History has a nasty habit of repeating if the world does not learn from the stories of the past ... now heralded by the Keepers of the Tales.
