Ascent: Unreachable Skies III
Ascent is the final volume in the 'Unreachable Skies' trilogy, published by Mirror World Publishing.
Zarda the Fate-seer, and the Drax she accompanied into exile have settled into a new life far to the north of their homeland. They have pledged their loyalty to Kalon, whose rightful place as Prime was stolen by his brother Kalis.
Zarda’s one certainty is that Kalis’ wingless heir, Dru, is destined to defeat their old enemy, the Koth; but how is he to do that when he is no longer the Prime’s heir? And how can Kalis, his scheming adviser Fazak, and their followers be overcome?.
