A year ago, the Grey Griffins were just regular kids from Avalon, Minnesota. That was before they learned about the existence of evil faeries, werewolves, and other things that go bump in the night. Now they are monster hunters, celebrated heroes, and allies to the legendary Templar Knights — but even heroes have to go to school.

When the Griffins enroll at Iron Bridge Academy, a school where young recruits are trained in the fight against the forces of evil, they find themselves at the center of a whole new adventure.

The Clockwork King, a Templar foe from days past, has returned to finish the plan he set in motion decades ago: a plot to steal the souls of changelings and humans infused with faerie blood and supernatural abilities — to power his army of clockwork war machines.Max Sumner and his three best friends, Harley, Ernie, and Natalia — who form the secret club, The Grey Griffins — seem to be the only people in their very normal Minnesota town to notice that strange things have started to happen. When creatures like goblins and fairies and unicorns, all characters from a card game the Grey Griffins play begin to make appearances in Max’s backyard, Max and his friends know something is terribly wrong. And it’s up to them to stop the wicked creatures of the cards from destroying their town —- indeed, their world. A thrilling new legend is born in the first book of the Grey Griffins’ magical adventures.
