Ascension

Wardens of the Rift, Book One

De: Jay S. Scott

Narrado por: Michael A. Montgomery

As a child, they tell you monsters aren’t real. That you shouldn’t be afraid of the dark. As a teenager, Marek Tomlinson learned it was bullshit—Monsters were real. And they loved the dark.

Now a New York City detective, Marek thought his worst days were behind him—until a string of brutal murders leaves him questioning everything. The evidence defies logic. The bodies are unrecognizable. And the deeper he digs, the more something inside him begins to stir—something ancient, volatile, and not entirely human.

Enter Agent Kaycee Gordon: fearless, brilliant, and assigned by the FBI’s secretive Special Crimes Unit to take over the case. She’s seen things most people couldn’t handle. But Marek isn’t like most people, and when they begin working together, sparks start flying.

As they unravel the truth, Marek and Kaycee uncover an ancient conflict being waged in secret—between violent realms determined to conquer Earth, and Wardens sworn to stop them. With the barrier between worlds failing and supernatural creatures slipping through, Marek must confront the truth about who he is—and what he’s becoming.

He didn’t ask for this. He never wanted to be special. But the conflict is building towards all-out war, and Marek may be the only one who can stop it.

Perfect for fans of Ilona Andrews, Sarah J Maas, and Jim Butcher, the first book in The Wardens of the Rift series delivers epic battles, slow-burn romance, and a gritty, supernatural world on the brink of collapse.

Twists and Turns

Loved this book!! A well written in depth plot with completely unexpected twists and excellent narration. Normally I prefer books with individual character narration but this... THIS was a solid homerun for a single narrator. Each character was portrayed with an individual voice from 1 narrator! Can't wait for book 2!!!

Fun thrilling listening.

loved it. The perfect combination of Sci-Fi and detective mystery. And the character voices were great

Ascension part 1

The narrator pulled me in with his voice and the command with which he told this very well written story. Loved all of the voices from the council to Harley. All of the voices. Can't wait for the next one
