Gabriel's Clock

Harry Potter meets The Hobbit! Jonathan wakes up in Hobbs End with a cracked skull and a terrifying memory of faceless demons in bowler hats flattening his family's home. Now his parents are missing and he is stuck in this weird woodland village with a werewolf, a young girl who talks too much, and a pair of stone gargoyles that he swears are waving at him... Hunted by a rogue archdemon and dealing with incredible new powers that he can barely comprehend, let alone control, Jonathan turns to the inhabitants of the village for help to solve the mystery of his birth. As the final clash between gods and monsters begins, will Jonathan be able to reconcile the light and dark sides of his powerful legacy before it's too late?

• Angels and Demons: Jonathan learns he's the only half-angel, half-demon child in existence, and a rogue archdemon wants to turn his powerful legacy into a weapon.
• Family Secrets: His parents are missing, his grandfather is an angel in hiding, and the key to his survival lies in uncovering the truth about why they've been running his whole life.
• A Magical Village: Welcome to Hobbes End, a secret sanctuary for werewolves, talking cats, and living stone gargoyles--and the only place Jonathan might be safe.
• Found Family: To survive, Jonathan must trust his new friends: a wisecracking cat, the werewolf's fast-talking daughter, and the two grumpy gargoyles who swear they're just on guard duty.
