Companions of the Vanguard - A Magic-Soaked, Monster-Smashing, Tram-Riding Urban Fantasy Adventure
Prague has seen a lot - ancient golems, vampire cabals, teenage monster gangs, Slavic god dramas - but even it wasn't ready for this crew.
Captain Marek: war-hardened leader of the Prague Vanguard, master of sarcasm, and reluctant father figure to a certain teenage chaos magnet. Sonya: techno-mage prodigy, wielder of gadgets that would make Tony Stark jealous, and the only person who could survive a cross-continental adventure without smudging her eyeliner.
Perak: the Spring Man of Prague. Urban legend? Definitely. Spy, fighter, puncher of dragons? You bet. Also deeply concerned about beer availability. Calvin Cloud (a.k.a. Crossbow): orphaned street kid turned Vanguard's unofficial Monster-Slayer-In-Training. Carries a mace, shoots magic bolts, and runs on rage, charm, and protein bars.
Buffy Tepes: vampire royalty with a complicated family tree and even more complicated love life. Think Daywalker skills with ancient vampire politics on top. When Buffy goes missing, Calvin takes off to find her - tram-jumping into Romania and headlong into a supernatural war featuring werewolves, ancient gods, monster-hunting nobility, and secret cults with names that sound like they were written backwards in a hurry. Now the old gang's getting back together, but with missing weapons, evil demigods, and Vlad's extended family involved, it's less "Mission: Rescue" and more "How to Accidentally Start an Apocalypse." With snappy banter, relentless action, deeply dysfunctional magic families, and the most beautiful weapon smith in Bucharest, Companions of the Vanguard is the urban fantasy thrill ride you didn't know you needed.
And yes, there will be punching. Possibly of dragons.
