Genelle Edwards Releases First Book in Series, GUARDIAN

As an avid reader, author E. Genelle Edwards likes to see variety in the books she reads. She also wants to create a protagonist who is good at heart yet not perfect, while doing so in a quasi Christian setting that would be relatable for today's youth. In her new publication, "The Guardian Chronicles: Guardian" (published by Xlibris), she brings readers a tale of fantasy, adventure and love.

"The Guardian Chronicles" is a series of young adult novels that narrates the journey of a rogue guardian angel in his quest for redemption. As a Guardian, Kendi was created to protect the human race from the Dominion, but after his negligence caused the death of his second assignment, he is sentenced in the high court of Empyrean to Earth Duty - this time as a mortal - and given one last chance to fulfill his purpose. "The Guardian Chronicles: Guardian" shows that one's life can still hold meaning and be very valuable even when mistakes are made along the way. It explores redemption without perfection.

"I want my readers to have enjoyed an escape into a world of complete fantasy that allows them to become enamored with the characters and situations that are relatable on a personal level- characters that give them a greater level of hope for their own situations," Edwards says.

A gripping, fast-paced read, this saga lets readers learn that not all expectations are meant to be burdensome. Some are meant for growth, personal development and lessons that will help them grow into responsible adults.
