The Legend of the Guardian Bell by Hollie Bell Schinzing is a book that retells a folklore story about the Guardians. They were the offspring of fairies, and they were neither males nor females. They celebrated the coming of each new Guardian for a whole month, and they were all proud to belong to this community. Gi, Rawiya, and Rider were a gaggle, and they received a new member, whom they eventually called Rebel. Guardians usually hide their presence because humans think no good of them, but our gaggle met a different human whom they thought was trustworthy. Eazy was a loner and spent most of his time with his turtle. When you grab this book, you'll find out what happened between Eazy and the giggle. You'll also learn more about the bell those Guardians gifted to special people.

The story is really interesting. In the beginning, it took me some time to get engaged and figure out what was going on. There were many unusual things produced, and I was a little confused. While being confused, I felt something good was forming, and my guess turned out to be right. I enjoyed learning about the Guardians and the bells, and I enjoyed their adventure with Eazy.

I didn't hate anything about this book. Before reading it, I didn't know anything about motorcycle folklore or that it even existed, but now I believe there are good things to discover there. I found it interesting that the Guardian, that was called Rawiya, was a storyteller, as the word Rawiya means a female storyteller in Arabic. I thought maybe old tales would turn out to have a little connection after all.

I enjoyed the new world this book introduced, and I found the book to be flawless and exceptionally well edited. Therefore, I rate it five out of five stars. I recommend the book to people who are interested in folklore stories.

The book includes so many interesting characters, and there seems to be a strong bond of unity and trust which was eventually betrayed. Am definitely adding this to my shelf.
