Ascendant Saga of Valor
High Fantasy Audio Book
Revolution cometh!
The sound of Valor shall resound, piercing even the deepest reaches of the city, and in the end, not a soul will be untarnished. . .

Until now, no one has managed to end the Lord Prime's tyranny.

That is until a deep and unlikely magic awakens within her.

Dirk Ava wants the same things as any other teenager:

Someone to love her. The freedom to do as she wishes. . and the chance to overthrow the Lord Prime. Daughter to a rebel extremist, Dirk Ava has been groomed for rebellion before she could even walk, but when the magic of the Ascendants appears within her, Ava's life is turned inside out.

Set on a soul-shattering quest, Ava's coming-of-age story requires her to master her powers, overcome betrayal, and slay the Lord Prime or lose everything and everyone she loves.

This is her destiny, but where good comes at the cost of evil, will Dirk Ava be able to keep her soul untarnished? Or will she become the very monster she hates?
