About the Book
Worlds are in turmoil. The evil Ashtarian Federation has continued their expansion into multiple galaxies. The Galactic Conqueror, Nazir Katan, leader of the Ashtarian Federation, has learned of a valuable resource on Earth.
After centuries of fighting, he believes this resource will give him the advantage needed to defeat the benevolent Genoshian Empire once and for all. Earth finds themselves stuck in the middle of a deadly war that they are ill-equipped to handle.
Earth’s only hope is the superhero faction known as The Ascendants. Scattered and fractured by previous events, the Ascendants find themselves outclassed by a much deadlier opponent. The heroes of Earth must unite if they are to have any chance of defeating this galactic force.
Review

Starting in space with a prologue that sets up the greater threat, the story switches to Earth to introduce the characters. The story introduces a few of the major characters, with the heroes briefly butting heads with a government agent. All the characters involved are unique and well rounded individuals. The story itself is entertaining and ends on a cliffhanger setting up the adventure hinted at in the prologue. The overarching story seems to be presented in a classic comic book format in written form. Overall, The Ascendants: Bloodlines is entertaining. Fans of superhero stories and comic serials will certainly be looking forward to future installments.
