About this title

Synopsis

October, 1982: While setting up an oil well location in the mountains of West Virginia, an oil field worker aboard a roaring bulldozer unearths a most bizarre find --- a large turtle-shaped creature from outer space.

The arcane discovery touches James Herbert Edwards causing a strange physical effect on him, buzzing him with an otherworldly sensation that closely resembles the shock of an electric current--- and leaving him with new special physical and mental abilities.

Edwards is suddenly able to perform complicated Calculus while at the same time write the Gettysburg address with his left hand. And he's right-handed.

Several months later, Edwards crosses paths with extraterrestrial life forms again. Only this time one faction wants him dead, another faction wants his help while a third faction anoint him "Star Guardian" of the Alliance...an interstellar coalition of planets from the Milky Way and surrounding galaxies, formed to maintain peace and order in the known universe.

Aboard his personal alien-technology starship, "Merlin", Edwards rips through the cosmos as he takes on missions for the common good of the Alliance. These missions are code-named The Guardian Projects .

The Guardian Projects , a masterful debut work by James Herbert Edwards, interweaves lightning paced action, scientific phenomena, and human drama in a page-turning science-fiction adventure that seizes the reader from the very first page --- and never lets go until the last.
