ABOUT ASCENSION
From best selling and award winning author Stacey Rourke comes the heart-pounding continuation of the acclaimed Gryphon Series.
The turning point of the Gryphon saga is at hand …
Battle looms. Three unstoppable forces prepare to clash in a colossal explosion that could wipe Gainesboro off the map. Fate and sacred calling have landed nineteen year old Celeste Garrett in the middle with nowhere to run.
Her trust wavers as she uncovers dark secrets of the Council, powerful enough to test her loyalty and turn her against those she swore to protect. Playing to the longing of her heart, a malevolent enemy uses her weakness against her to form an alliance.
With the trumpets of war about to sound, which side will the Conduit choose, and who will be left standing?

The demonic and fantasy elements of the Conduit’s journey will jump off the page thanks to Robert Immings;

Since then he’s done work in package design, web development and designed training applications and software interfaces. These days he’s a mild mannered operations technician with an electronic trading firm in Alpharetta Georgia.

Awesome covers! I think Embrace is my favorite. Must add these to the TBR pile!
ReplyDeleteI love them all, but I think my favorite is a tie between Ascension and Sacrifice.
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely a series that jumps to the top of my TBR pile whenever one is released
