The Circle of Light series by Niel Hancock is a captivating fantasy saga that follows the journey of a young orphan named Cayden. Cayden discovers he possesses extraordinary powers and is destined to become a Guardian, a protector of the sacred Light. This series spans five books, each one more thrilling than the last, as Cayden and his companions navigate treacherous lands, face formidable foes, and uncover the secrets of their world. In the first book, "The Last Guardian," Cayden learns of his true heritage and the responsibility it entails. Accompanied by a wise mentor and a loyal friend, he embarks on a quest to find the fabled Circle of Light and claim his place among the Guardians. Along the way, he encounters mythical creatures, uncovers ancient prophecies, and confronts the darkness that threatens to consume his world. The second book, "The Guardian's Call," finds Cayden and his allies deep in enemy territory. As they struggle to stay one step ahead of the dark forces seeking to destroy them, they forge new alliances and uncover shocking revelations about the Circle of Light. Cayden's powers grow stronger, but so too does the darkness within him. In "The Darkening," the third book, Cayden's struggles with the darkness intensify. As he grapples with his inner demons, he must also lead his companions in a desperate battle against an enemy that seems unstoppable. The fate of the world hangs in the balance, and Cayden must make a choice that will change everything. "The Shattered Circle," the fourth book, sees Cayden and his friends reeling from the aftermath of their last battle. As they regroup and plan their next move, they discover that the Circle of Light has been shattered, and the Guardians are scattered across the world. Cayden must unite them once more and face his greatest challenge yet. Finally, in "The Last Stand," the series concludes with an epic showdown between the forces of light and darkness. Cayden and his companions must risk everything to save their world, and Cayden must confront his destiny once and for all. The Circle of Light series is a thrilling adventure that combines elements of fantasy, mythology, and coming-of-age.
