As a half Vampire, half Lychen and the last of her kind,
Kynana is feared by many and that's the way she likes it.
Having hated mankind for all the sins they've committed
against her, Kynana can't believe it when she's chosen to
come to their rescue. The gates to Tartarus have been opened
and Dark Breeds have been freed to roam the earth and wreck
havoc.
Kynana has been chosen for her uncanny ability to track and
she needs to find not only the key to lock the gate but also
the person responsible for opening the gate in the first
place.
As if working to save the humans wasn't bad enough, Kynana
has been instructed to work with Ryker, a demigod who is the
son of Ares. He's also the man who rejected Kynana ten years
ago, something she has yet to get over. As their reluctant
alliance takes off, their search for answers leads them to a
dangerous ancient cult and a vengeful god. With so much at
stake, Kynana and Ryker are going to have to work out their
problems and rely on each other, or they may be amongst the
first casualties in a war that will become unstoppable.
ASCENSION is the debut novel from Sable Grace, which is a
pseudonym for writing team Heather Waters and Laura Barone,
which I would never have been able to tell from the writing.
The whole story is so seamless that I would have never known
it was written by two different people if I hadn't read the
acknowledgments at the beginning of the book. As far as
debut books go, ASCENSION is a clear winner. I found the
story to be engaging and interesting. I kept wanting to know
what happens next. I very much enjoyed the characters in the
book and loved that they were flawed and human. The ending
of the book will leave you on edge, clamoring to find out
what happens next. Sable Grace make an awesome writing duo
and I can't wait to see what they give us in the future.
The gates of hell have opened, and one woman will stand in
the crossfire as the Dark Breed -- vampyre, demons, shape
shifters -- and mankind fight their last battle for survival.
Kyana is half Vampyre, half Lychen...and the last of her
kind. Determined, dangerous, and damned, she has no love for
the mortals who have imprisoned and misused her. But when
the Order of Ancients entrusts her with a mission -- to find
the key that will send the Dark Breed back into Hell for
eternity -- Kyana has no choice but to accept.
She is furious to learn her assignment comes with an escort.
. . Ryker, a demigod and fierce warriour who long ago found
a way under her skin and stayed there. In a shaky alliance,
they discover an ancient cult with dangerous motives and a
god who seeks to destroy all others. And as Kyana begins to
feel the heat that threatens to bind her to Ryker, she knows
she has to resist. For it could only mean the undoing of
them both. . .
