The Gridd: Perils of the Lightholder by J.L. Marrain

Follow 16-year-old Alick Rae as he discovers his magical heritage, navigates a hidden world of protectors called Lightholders, and faces cosmic threats that could destroy Earth. 

After being orphaned and sent to live with his estranged grandfather, Roderick Rae (Double R), Alick discovers his latent wizard powers. Together, they uncover The Gridd, a mystical energy mesh that protects Earth from cosmic dangers. 

As Alick trains, he forms alliances with diverse clans, including the ice-wielding Algrids, Amazonian shapeshifters called Fortrills, underwater Atlanteans, fire-wielding Stygeons, and the Scottish Rudyah Clan and magical Faerys. Each group brings unique skills, challenges, and friendships, guiding Alick toward his ultimate destiny.
