Guardian: Book 1 in The Divine Chronicles
Hospital Porter, Immortal, Guardian of the Afterlife
In the dead of night Bertie walks the corridors of Macmillan’s Hope and Sanctuary Hospital, befriending the dying and letting them know they are not alone, that they have not been forgotten.
Is he an angel, there to guide them on to their eternity, or is he just a kindly hospital porter giving those so close to the end a little hope?
Bertie is both, and he is neither.
He is the guardian of the afterlife, guiding those recently passed back to a time in their life where they were the happiest.
Bertie isn’t the only one with abilities he cannot explain though, and he isn’t the only one for whom the sands of time do not flow. Who is the man who finds him in his dreams, and why does he reach out to him?

What a story
First, this is just an exceptional story; what an imagination. Second, I remember reading a story, seems like thus story years ago, but only remember a few bits if it. This was so very good, most all of it fits in my belief structure, a few things not exactly; but I highly recommend this and just open your mind to possibilities. Great job.

Great start to a unique series
This was a very unique and original take on fantasy, time travel, and the paranormal. It keeps the reader guessing as well as to what will happen next.
