Unbeknownst to all of humanity, life as we know it is preserved solely by the efforts of the “Caretakers,” a rare race of supernatural beings that manipulate destiny in order to prevent the flow of creation from spiraling into complete annihilation. The forces seeking to thwart the Caretakers’ mission? The Breakers, who would love for nothing more than to see creation come to an abrupt end. For generations, the Caretakers have succeeded in their ongoing quest by cultivating a host of formidable powers – but what happens when they reach the point where these powers are no longer enough...?

A lush, sweeping fantasy epic, Stories From The Circle: Apprentice introduces the reader to the young Miles Dean, a nascent Caretaker ultimately caught up in the inexorable pull of his true climactic calling. Mentored by the powerful Oliver Crucias, Miles soon finds himself on a daunting spiritual quest with far-reaching implications, where success is all but assured – yet necessary if life on Earth and all its companion worlds throughout the cosmos is to be preserved. Peppered throughout with vivid, detailed illustrations, the three stories comprising Apprentice boast a well-balanced mix of action, drama, and suspense, successfully holding the reader’s interest, engaging the imagination, and stoking the flames of anticipation for future installments in this exciting new series.

A captivating, thought-provoking tale, Stories From The Circle: Apprentice is a must-read for fans of superbly crafted fantasy fiction. Highly recommended.
