WARRIOR CHILDREN: The Guardian Series
Book 1: Return of the High Guardian After 3,300 years, High Guardian and son of the god of Time, Edward, is summoned back to the planet, only to find widespread chaos throughout modern-day Earth. Faced with the nearly impossible task of instilling peace and restoring balance, Edward embarks on a journey filled with danger at every turn. Ambushed by thousands of mercenaries sent by the new Demon King, Moloch, Edward’s weakened state forces him to rely on the help of the people around him. As he transitions from the Otherworlds, he must recruit a team and lend his power to the mortals, enabling them to experience the ways and magick of the gods. The future of Earth is at stake, and Edward must gain immortality and find three magical swords to aid in the battle with the Demon King.
Book 2: Champion of the Gatekeeper (Release Date: 12-5-24) Edward’s journey continues, as he joins High Guardian, Aaron, the son of Muruga. Through their adventures to Mars and back, they discover the origin of both angels and demons, as well as a new Demon King on the rise. This installment will highlight the human experiences of loss, power, and resilience.
Book 3: Keepers of Fire and Light (Release Date: 4-6-25) The final book in the trilogy promises to bring an epic conclusion to Edward’s quest, tying together the themes of magick, heroism, and the enduring human spirit. With new characters added, Keepers of Fire and Light showcases mortals who gain access to higher powers through their training with the sons of the gods. In this final showdown with a Demon King from many light years away, the mortals and the gods join forces to ensure the survival of two planets.
The Next Generation Series Following the Guardian Series, Vaughn Edward plans to continue the saga with The Next Generation Series, promising more adventures and new characters to captivate readers.
Relatable Characters and Real-Life Inspirations
The characters in Warrior Children are inspired by Vaughn’s real-life experiences during his 30 cross-country trips around the United States while performing and touring in bands. These journeys allowed him to meet diverse people and listen to their stories, which deeply influenced his writing. The towns and cities he passed through, the sunrises and sunsets he witnessed, and the people he encountered all left a mark on him, shaping the mannerisms and backgrounds of the characters in his books.
“The stories are very real, up to a certain point, where the physical world meets the fantastic and the unseen,” Vaughn explains. “The magick in the books was inspired by many authentic and enlightened teachers I met on my travels – nearly 30 enlightened teachers from various countries, including India, the Island of Mauritius, Tibet, Jamaica, and the United States.”
Why People Should Read Warrior Children
Warrior Children stands out in the fantasy genre for its relatable characters and rich storytelling.

A Message from High Guardian, Edward
“When you can understand that life is not about you as an individual, then you start caring about those in front of you, and you begin to play well with each other. Life is a game, and if you don’t play it well, you lose,” says Edward, High Guardian and son of the god of Time, speaking to villagers in the Himalayas.
