Yonatan has a vocation, he is the guardian of a city. Every city has a living embodiment of everything that makes it unique, a city spirit. We can perhaps feel the character of the city, can attach qualities to it, like it or despair of it, but only the guardian of the cities can see its spirit, help it and call for its help. Yonatan is forced to do just that when Tel Aviv, with which he has a complex past, begins to change. Givatayim, Ramat Gan and other Gush Dan cities are worried, Sodom is keeping a secret and giving ominous warnings, and when Yonatan tries to understand what is happening, he finds himself at the center of a mystery that surrounds his life, in the present and in the past, and against an ancient and powerful enemy. --

Review of 'Shomre he-ʻarim' on 'Goodreads'

שומרי הערים הוא ספר הפנטזיה הכי ישראלי שקראתי עד כה.

ההווה, העבר, התרבות הישראלית זורמת בעורקיו.

אבל למראת זאת אין נתק בין ישראל והעולם. החוקים של העולם האל-טבעי אוניברסליים. אין נתק בין המיתולוגיה העברית לשאר העולם.

אהבתי את יוני, אהבתי את הנשים שהתאהב בהן, אהבתי את סופו של הסיפור.
