Lincoln Thomas thought he was a perfectly normal twelve-year-old … until the night he slowed time to save his mom from a super-powered assassin. He learns he and his parents are part of a secret society known as the Guardians, real-life superheroes sworn to protect the world’s most important people. As the newest Guardian in the family, Lincoln is sent to the Atlas Academy to learn how to control his new powers. Between making new friends, battling bullies and mythical creatures, and trying to survive the academy’s combat training program, Lincoln discovers someone is plotting against the Guardians—and whoever it is, they’re getting help from the inside. It’s up to Lincoln and his friends to unmask the traitor, but before they can, an army of rogue Guardians attacks the academy. Not all Guardians are good, and Lincoln is about to find out just how bad they can be.

Excerpt from Fairy Tales From the Arabian NightsThe King Of Persia' 5 capital was situated in an island; and his palace, which was very magnificent, was built upon the sea shore; his window looked towards the sea; and the fair slave' s, which was pretty near it, had also the same prospect, and it was the more pleasant on account of the sea's beating almost against, the foot of the wall.At the end of three days the fair slave, magnificently dressed, was alone in her chamber, sitting upon a sofa, and leaning against one Of the windows that faced the sea, when the king, being informed that he might visit her, came in. The slave hearing somebody walk in the room, immediately turned her head to see who it was. She knew him to be the king, but without showing the least surprise, or so much as rising from her seat to salute or receive him, she turned back to the window again as if he had been the most insignificant person in the world.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
