Winner of the 2011 Sharp Writ Book of the Year for Teens.
For centuries, rumors have abounded of a lowly caste of supernatural
beings known as the Terrae Angeli. Armed with the power to control
Earth, Fire, Wind and Water, these warriors secretly serve
as guardians for mortals in danger.
But for one young angel-in-training, Griffin, life is hell as a cruel
master makes his apprenticeship a nightmare. On the verge of failing, a
new mentor, Basil, enters his life and changes it
forever.
Taking on the identity of father and son, Griffin and Basil forge a
special bond where honesty and trust go hand in hand to secure Griffin’s destiny as a Terrae Angeli. Griffin’s belief in himself
and the love of a mortal girl are the perfect combination in overcoming
the darkest days of his life. But will it be enough for him to succeed?
For Griffin, it’s time to angel up.
