The final part of the prequel to the award winning epic fantasy Sentinal Series, Sentinals Origins Part Two, launched today, December 1st, 2025.

I am thrilled to announce that it is also a #1 new release in the Amazon Top 100 Classic Fantasy new releases!

More reviews are coming in from my ARC readers and I am so happy they loved it.

‘Sentinals Origins Part Two is the powerful and exciting conclusion to the Sentinals origin story and completed an excellent prequel series. The author has a knack for drawing you into the story quickly, taking you on an emotional roller coaster at times, and pacing the story extremely well. As I read this book, I was able to recall events in the main series that were made richer by the background story. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and I was very deeply involved with the story until the end.’ Bob 5* Amazon review.

Book Description

Birler, Tagerill and Serill have accepted the Lady’s invitation to become her personal guards, her Sentinals. They roam the territories of Remargaren in the name of the Lady, protecting those who can’t protect themselves.

But the threat against Lady Leyandrii is growing and Captain Guerlaire is in the Ascendants sights. He has been too successful in disrupting their plans and now time is running out, for him and the Sentinals. The Ascendants are determined to kill them all and show Leyandrii, once and for all, that they hold the power in Remargaren.

Birlerion’s discovery of his innate magic, offers Leyandrii an alternate path, but it’s a last resort and as Leyandrii teaches him how to control it, she is desperate to find another solution.

As the final confrontation looms and the natural world buckles under the backlash from the reckless use of magic, Leyandrii has one last throw to try and save their world from ruin and destruction, but will any of them live to tell the tale?

Very excited at the enthusiasm my ARC readers have had for this book, calling it an emotional rollercoster and all of them hotfooting it to start the series again!

‘WOW!! Once again I am blown away by master storyteller Helen Garraway! I could not put this book down! The outstanding world building is beautifully and magically captivating. There is plenty of action, adventure, twists and turns and a few surprises you don’t see coming. Her characters are written with so much depth. You feel all the emotions the characters go through. They are engaging and you really feel like you know them. I absolutely enjoyed this book and absolutely highly recommend reading it.’ Raelene, 5* Goodreads Review

‘With ‘Sentinals Origin Part Two,’ Helen Garraway has created the grand showdown, or should I say, the story now comes to a close? 

Birlerion and his sentinal friends are asked to protect not only the Lady, but also Remargeren and its inhabitants from the Ascendants. The threat posed by the Ascendants gives them reason to strive and remain strong in the face of all dangers and adversities. But will they be able to prevail and have the faith to remain strong until the end?

A breathtaking story with many unexpected twists and turns. The end of the story gives reason to immediately continue the series with ‘Sentinals Awaken’, the first book in the series.’ C Goodreads 5* Review.

The first part of the prequel to the award winning Sentinal Series, Sentinals Origins, which launched on, May 5th, 2025 reached the Amazon bestselling number 1 spot for Classic Fantasy New Releases.

As Sentinals Origins Part Two grows, intended for a 2025 Autumn/Fall release, it’s important to pause and celebrate releasing my thirteenth book. I am so thankful for the support of my fellow indie authors from the writing community, to my readers who have embraced my latest book, and my small but mighty ARC reader team.

Sharing some of the history and background of the Sentinals has been great fun, and as you meet the Descelles and Greens, I hope you love them as much as I do. Having the opportunity to write strong and relatable characters like Leyandrii and Guerlaire, Warren and Melis, and many of the Sentinals, hopefully gives you many more insights into the Sentinals and will enhance your reading experience as you revisit the series.

Sentinals Origins Part One was the recipient of a Five Star Readers Favourite book review by Jamie Michele

‘Helen Garraway’s Sentinals Origins is an excellent fantasy with a lot of moving parts, each of which melds perfectly into the origin story that the author creates for the rest of the series. Birler’s growth is really well done, as he evolves from an uncertain, impoverished young man into a competent and self-assured cadet. The intense relationship between Guerlaire and Leyandrii brings a unique sizzle, and sparks fly when Garraway allows us into the more intimate moments. The setting details are striking. I love the juxtaposition of the beauty of the temple, contrasting against the grim, impoverished reality of Harbourtown, both of which stand out as entrenched social divides. Ways of life vary, and as a reader with total wanderlust, the Terolian nomadic culture and its reliance on the sun, sand, and stars for navigation, and its reverence for family are really lovely. The Ascendants, who seek to control and corrupt, are worthy antagonists in a powerful story that makes me want to carry on. Very highly recommended.‘

Book Description

Wild magic is rife in the world of Remargaren and a shadowy group of dissidents have discovered how to exploit the power for their own purposes.

The goddess, Leyandrii, and her Captain, Guerlaire, must face down this new threat and protect the people from unseen dangers. As Guerlaire learns to wield his own power, three new cadets with the potential to change the world are beginning their journey to become Lady’s Rangers.

Drawn from the back streets of Vespers, a young boy is thrust into a world beyond his comprehension. Battling bigotry and violence, Birler will need to navigate the Rangers’ Academy while grappling with unexpected ties of friendship, a tantalising found family, and embrace ancient magical powers.

A heartwarming tale of friendship and family is set against a backdrop of bigotry and violence in a world where wild magic can precariously tip the balance. Birler and his new friends will have to fight their own battles, not only to earn the right to become rangers but to help Leyandrii and Guerlaire restore the natural balance and defend their world.
