Trapped millennia in the past and gifted with regenerative abilities, King must live out the centuries until he returns to his own time and his family. In the Jack Sigler Continuum series, international bestselling authors Jeremy Robinson and J. Kent Holloway tell the events that occurred in King’s life as a result of the full-length novel, Omega, but no prior reading is required to enjoy the Continuum series. Each story will be a standalone adventure, and a great jumping-on point. For more of King’s adventures, check out the entire Jack Sigler/Chess Team series.

Jack Sigler, Callsign: King, has been a lot of things in his life. A soldier, a father, a hero. But now he’s taking up a new title: guardian.

After a life fighting billionaire madmen, terrorists and unnatural threats, he’s stuck thousands of years in the past, using his knowledge of history and modern warfare to right wrongs and stand up for those in need.

When he meets a twelve year old boy—the prince of the Babylonian Empire—who is to be sacrificed to the ancient goddess, Tiamat, by a twisted High Priest, King steps in, sword swinging. But what starts as a simple snatch and grab, quickly turns into a pitched battle against a legion of men and hideous creatures. As Tiamat rises from her ancient resting place, the fate of the world—and King’s future—is at stake.

Praise for Robinson

“Rocket-boosted action, brilliant speculation, and the recreation of a horror out of the mythologic past, all seamlessly blend into a rollercoaster ride of suspense and adventure.”
—James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Eye of God

“With Threshold Jeremy Robinson goes pedal to the metal into very dark territory. Fast-paced, action-packed and wonderfully creepy! Highly recommended!”
—Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Rot & Ruin

“Jeremy Robinson is the next James Rollins”
—Chris Kuzneski, New York Times bestselling author of The Einstein Pursuit

Praise for Holloway:

“Not since Preston & Child’s Agent Pendergast has there been a more mysterious, charming and fun to read sleuth as Ezekiel Crane. His mixture of southern charm, dark history and scientific know-how is intoxicating.”
—Jeremy Robinson, bestselling author of Island 731 and Omega

“Holloway skillfully weaves a back-woods tapestry of Sherlock Holmes with TV’s Supernatural and Justified into a thrilling Appalachian story of magic and mayhem. The Dirge amps up the action, menace, and mojo, for a spookfest of epic proportions, with a layered mystery and surprises at every turn. Join Ezekiel Crane, and bring your ten-demon bag for another Dark Hollows adventure. This series somehow got even better.”
—Kane Gilmour, bestselling author of Ragnarok and The Crypt of Dracula

“Siren’s Song hits all the right notes. A page-turning plot, heart-stopping battles above and below the waves, cutting-edge technology and weaponry—and of course, more double-crossing villains than you can shake a spear-gun at. Holloway’s a skilled conductor, and Siren’s Song a thrilling symphony.”
—David Sakmyster, author of The Pharos Objective

From the Publisher

#1 Audible and NY Times Bestselling author, Jeremy Robinson, protects the world from...the past!

Jack Sigler, callsign: King, and his team of Delta operators, Queen, Bishop, Rook, and Knight will face down any threat against the United States—even if they’re myths. The Hydra, Golem, Fenris Wolf, Cerberus, Nquoi Rung, Hercules himself, and more return from the past to threaten the future. Along with a host of original creations, Sigler’s Chess Team finds themselves up against a host of mercenaries, madmen, sinister corporations, and corrupt governments. Fans of Ray Harryhausen, Tom Clancy, James Rollins, the National Treasure films, and the A-Team will all feel right at home in these action-packed novels.

With nine core novels (and a tenth on the way), eight novellas, a three book Continuum spin-off series, and a two book Cerberus Group spin-off series, there are more than enough books to satiate even the fastest thriller reader.

Wow!!!

I've been greatly anticipating the return of King and the start of the Continuum series and I have not been disappointed!

Spoilers ahead, so if you don't want to read the review until you've read the book, you now have ten seconds to stop reading. Everyone else, you can enjoy Jetemy Robinson infommercial =D

10...

Read Robinson's book Omega, as it sets all of this up. It's not necessary, but it certainly helps.

9...

Even though Guardian and all following books are stand alone, it also wouldn't hurt to read:

8...

Prime, Pulse, Instinct and Threshold

7...

Then the CALLSIGN books - King, Queen, Rook, Bishop, Knight and King 2 (they're novellas, but don't let their size minimise their importance to the lead up.

6...

Further CALLSIGN books - Deep Blue and King 3

5...

Ragnorak is next.

4...

Then, next, is Omega

3...

Like I said, not vital to read these, but it helps...

2...

Nothing more to add, other than XOM-B is due in April. Can't wait!

1...

So is Savage!!! Due July!

Okay. You've been adequately warned.

In the first adventure since Alexander/Hercules left King stranded in the ancient past during Omega, King has been living (and dying) in history for 200 years and is self-charged with the rescue and guardianship of Belshazzar, a young acolyte and descendant of Marduk who has been captured by Sereb-Meloch, a corrupt high priest who has the might of the Girtabliblu to command and use.

With the assistance of an important historical figure, who instantly garners King's trust, the race to save ancient Earth from the corrupt Sereb-Meloch and his goddess Tiamat commences - without the aide of 21st century weapons and intelligence that King has grown accustomed to.

Guardian is jam-packed with adventure, the supernatural and the heart stopping moments that are synonymous with novels penned by Jeremy Robinson.

No disappointments between these covers ;)

The king has left the century.

King, Jack Sigler, is in a new environment. He has traveled to the very distant past. The story is set in the Middle East environs around Babylonia. This is the first in a new series from Jeremy Robinson having as its main character one of our favorites from the Chess Team series. It is co-written by J. Kent Holloway.

The action starts with a high priest from Babylonia moving through the desert to a mountain top to release two creatures. He has kidnapped the grandson of Nebuchadnezzar and intends to offer the boy as a sacrifice to the creatures. King, using an alias, has infiltrated the mercenary army that the high priest has gather. He is going to rescue the boy. King finds out there is more going on than expected. With the boy’s help and an unexpected help of a very famous historical figure, King fights to save the human race.

The story pulls one in with each turn of the page. Ancient myths are brought to life. And through it all, King is still King. The hero of mankind. This is a short story I recommended for those who love Jeremy Robinson’s books. I would also recommend it for any who enjoy action/adventure, myths, and ancient cultures. If you haven’t read any of Jeremy Robinson’s book, this is a great one to start with. Another edition to this series is planned for later this year, so read this one now to be prepared.

Reading JR's book is not good for your health, as one forgets to eat, drink, sleep till the time one does not finish a book.

This is the first adventure of King while he is living through the past 2500 years as an immortal.
Considering this is not a Chess team book, I expected myself to be not as impressed or excited as I was for the Chess team books. But boy, was I wrong.
King is back in time, and now is trying to save the life of a Babylonian prince from the goddess Tiamat.
He might be in the past, but he is still a good soldier and a good man. And he will do what it takes to do the right thing.

ANOTHER AWESOME NOVELLA FEATURING KING AND HERCULES (WHOM LITERALLY TAKES KING BACK TO THE YEAR 780 B.C. AND LEAVES HIM IN AN UNKNOWN LAND, DEPENDENT UPON HIS WITS, STRENGTHS, COMBAT TALENT AND KINDNESS TO SURVIVE). I BELIEVE HERCULES HAS COUNTLESS SECRETS AND HIDDEN AGENDAS WHICH HE PURPOSELY KEEPS FROM KING - (JACK SIGLER AND THE CHESS TEAM) . . . BUT TO WHAT END ?

MAYBE WE WILL LEARN SOME OF THE MYSTERIES AND SECRETS HERCULES HIDES IN FUTURE BOOKS.

GOING BACK IN TIME TO SAVE A PRINCE, FACE EVIL ENEMIES, ADD CREEPY, DANGEROUS, EXCELLENTLY CRAFTED CREATURES, MONSTERS, DEMONS, BIBLICAL REFERENCES . . . WHATEVER YOU WISH TO CALL THEM, MAKES "GUARDIAN" A FINE READ.

I BELIEVE YOUR BEST BET IS TO START AT THE BEGINNING OF THE CALLSIGN SERIES AND GO FROM THERE. TAKE A LOOK AT MR. ROBINSON'S AND/OR HOLLOWAY'S PAGES ON AMAZON, AND THE ORDER OF THE BOOKS SHOULD BE THERE.

ACTION, KICK - A** CHARACTERS THAT I HAVE WATCHED DEVELOP FROM NEWBIES TO THE WELL-ROUNDED WARRIORS AND ADMIREABLE CHARACTERS FROM THE BEGINNING BOOKS.

PERSONAL DESIRES, HONOR, DUTY, KILLER INSTINCTS AND FIGHTING ABILITIES ALWAYS KEEP MY NOSE STUCK INSIDE THESE BOOKS AND NOVELLAS.

Guardian is one thrillride of action....in the past of our planet

Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2014

Guardian is a first in what I hope a new side series of the Chess team series by Jeremy Robinson. In the last Chess book (Omega) we saw the hero of the series King being transported to the past by the legendary Hercules. This new side series deals with his adventures when being stuck in the past and this first book was an amazing read. I never knew the co author of this book J. Kent Holloway. but if his books are as good as this one, he also found a new reader in me. In the past Robinson had several co authors with some of his books and so far I have never been disappointed.

This book deals with a kings son, ready to be sacrificed by a power seeking man, mix some scifi elements as a terraforming spaceship with alien monsters and you have another great read. The mix of past history, some biblical elements as the prophet Dan-yel and some real to have existed people like King Nebuchadnezar just comes great together in the minds of these writers.

I love the concept behind the Continuum novels, our hero Jack Sigler (from the Chess Team novels) is stuck in the past for thousands of years and is still trying to right wrongs and fight monsters along the way. The scope for this series is endless!

A great read, full of the action and monsters we expect form this series, I couldn't put it down and read it in one sitting. A very welcome addition to the Chess Team saga.

Typical of Jeremy Robinson. Keeps you on your toes and makes you imagine what comes next. No sleep for me tonight as I am about to order more of his books. He is better than most other authors and I now own all his books.

God bless you Jeremy for making an old man (72) happy.

This book was impossible to resist as I studied the Babylonian Empire as a theologian and just had to read Robinson's take on Tiamat. Fantastic monsters, a rip-roaring pace and some gruesome ways for King to (almost) die. A quick, enjoyable read.
