In the mythical kingdom of Gardenia, eleven-year-old Aden sets out to honor his fallen parents by following in their footsteps to become the strongest warrior in the land. After a humiliating defeat at the hands of a mysterious warrior, he must start over-by becoming a gardener. But fate deals Aden a path far darker and more important than he ever imagined. He learns he is one of five Wards charged with protecting The Planting Tree, the one tree that feeds and nurtures all life in the realm. But a disgraced Ward, calling himself the Crowmaster, has hatched a diabolical plan to steal Aden's magic, and that of his fellow Wards, so that he alone can control The Planting Tree and bend all life to his will. But Aden has discovered he has the power to inspire those around him to dance to his tune through his one-of-a-kind, red maple fiddle, and he has the help of two unlikely companions-his best friend, Mara, and a broken down warrior with a mysterious past. Will they be enough to overcome the powerful Crowmaster? With its blend of humor, heroism, and heart, "Warriors of the Garden" will appeal to fans of "Artemis Fowl," "How to Train Your Dragon" or "The Unicorn Rescue Society" series.
