The Monument series consists of two books by Michael C. Grumley: The Last Monument (2020) and The Desert of Glass (2021). The series deals with ancient structures and artifacts that carry implications for the modern world, mixing archaeological mystery with thriller plotting.
Like Grumley’s other work, the Monument books move quickly and layer real scientific concepts into their fictional frameworks. The two-book format keeps the story tight, making it a good option for readers who want to try Grumley without committing to the longer Breakthrough series.
