The Guardians of Eternity Book I: The Covenant of the First Earth — Cover Art

A World on the Edge of a Broken Covenant

Before nations rose and kingdoms fell, four were chosen — one from each corner of the First Earth — to serve as guardians of a covenant older than time itself. Uriyah. Tzuri'el. Eliel. Amariah. They were not called because they were worthy, but because the Covenant demanded willing hands.

Now a rebellion stirs in the celestial realm. Powers that once served the light have turned against the order they were made to uphold. As the fractures above begin to mirror the fractures below, the four guardians must navigate treachery, loss, and the weight of a calling they did not ask for — while the First Earth trembles beneath the shadow of what is coming.

Drawing from deep wells of biblical covenant theology and epic mythic storytelling, The Covenant of the First Earth is a novel of faith tested, sacrifice chosen, and a world discovering that no darkness goes unanswered.

Author Physician Theologian Community Manager

Dr. Raymundo Montero

Dr. Raymundo Montero writes at the intersection of sacred text and epic imagination. Trained as a physician and theologian, he brings both clinical precision and deep scriptural literacy to the worlds he builds — worlds where covenant theology is not merely backdrop, but the engine of all conflict and all redemption.

The Guardians of Eternity is his debut trilogy, a work nearly a decade in the making, conceived as a story of four imperfect guardians called into a fracturing world not because they were ready, but because the covenant required them. The series is planned to culminate in an incarnation arc that will span three books.

He lives in Florida with his wife Nejane and daughter Amarah — whose name inspired one of the novel's four guardians.
