Book 2: Terk's Guardians
When Legend sees his political war-mongering father heading in a direction Legend can’t agree with, he walks, but walking away from his little brother, Larry, can’t happen. He is special in so many ways—even Clary, who has helped him many times, agrees. When intel of a government uprising is confirmed, Legend swoops in to remove Larry from the danger zone. It’s not like Legend can leave behind his brother’s tutor either.
Blair has been looking after Larry for years and had expected her position to continue for much longer, but, when Legend races in, barking orders to leave, her calm future is in sudden jeopardy. Nothing is easy or calm about Legend when he’s around her.
As the coup fails, Legend’s simple escape plan deteriorates quickly, and Larry’s existence is suddenly a prize for cohorts, who haven’t been paid and who are looking for a quick escape route too. Not that Blair would let anyone hurt her charge—even if it means dealing with and cooperating with the very irritating Legend.
