Summary

"Caledonia Corals" is a novella takes readers to mysterious events. The author weaves together elements of mystery, adventure to create a truly gripping plot. At the heart of the narrative is a chill-drilled sergeant who leads a group of four through treacherous winter fields. As the sky gradually darkens, an unfriendly and harsh weather settles upon the surroundings. The lake's water freezes, and the ice crystals resemble Caledonian corals; the stillness envelops the landscape, brings a restlessness and melancholy that grips the heart. Many a solitary soul may deem these modest corals as insignificant, yet they possess a captivating allure that rival even the most exquisite fractals. Smoothly flowing plot substitutes seemingly ordinary behavior, landscape, and dialogues, creating a frighteningly dim atmosphere. The fortunes take an unexpected turn when the group stumbles upon an ancient stone mottled with unknown symbols that hint at the promise of unimaginable riches. However, excitement quickly turns to anxiety when an unknown girl, shrouded in mystery, ominously appears before them, her silence speaking volumes. The soldiers find themselves facing a formidable force that cannot be defeated, deceived, or intimidated. The readers might venture to say that the author is the most misunderstood, fascinating, and mysterious one.

    “The Lightwatch Chronicles book is reminiscent of The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, in its linking fantasy and ethereal mystery with the human psyche, finding our path, and our constant struggle to grasp and understand our own emotions... but with its own unique flair. I loved every bit of it.” – Reader's Favorite Review 
    In a fantastically creative fusion of space opera, the Golden Age Elysium, and Earth-bound cyberpunk settings, four young warriors called the Quarta begin their journey in a Special Forces military academy. Yet after the terrifying surprise attack of the Shadow demons that destroyed their homeworld, the scattered Quarta are forced to flee to Earth and the seeming safety of Tokyo, Japan. Here, the remaining three friends blend into society as an undercover boy band, while mounting a desperate search for their missing battle-brother. 
    Meanwhile, a fierce war rages throughout the Universe, as the Shadow’s forces seek to rewrite history and take over the world by closing the Gate of Time Past. Only the Great Star Antares, the current Guardian of the Gate and her formidable soulmate Vega have the power to thwart the Shadow’s imminent storm. The problem is… Vega’s memory has been erased by the enemy. Will Antares find Vega before it’s too late, and what role will the Quarta play in the imminent battle that will weigh the fate of the Universe? The answer is not what you may expect. 
    The Guardians is the epic first volume of the action-packed and spiritually rewarding Lightwatch Chronicles YA Space Saga series. Immerse yourself into the mesmerising fast-paced plot and step into the unforgettable world living the story and the adventures side by side with the characters. Author J.H. Tepley draws on her personal experience as a meditation, personal development and mental fitness mentor to create vibrant, fascinating and unputdownable story.
