Ascended: Dark Beginnings

By Roger Reece and Jerry Reece

Brothers, Michael, Ryan and Ty Slade appear to be ordinary boys growing up in the suburbs with their parents. But these boys are far from ordinary! They share not only the bond of brotherhood but also a closely guarded secret; a secret not even their parents know. They each possess unique superhuman abilities. Each day presents an array of challenges as they attempt to hide their extraordinary abilities from the world at large. Eleven-year-old Michael and ten-year-old Ryan are physically enhanced and athletically gifted while nine-year- old Ty is an unpredictable human weapon capable of mass destruction. When a nefarious underground society known as STING discovers them, they abduct the boys and murder their parents. The three are taken to a high tech underground complex hidden deep within an isolated mountain region in Alaska where the boys discover they are not alone. The Slade brothers are but three of 50 children with similar powers taken against their will. They are Ascended: genetically modified persons who exist on a higher plane of evolutionary distinction, the world's ultimate human weapons. The Slades rebel against STING's authority at every turn while the other Ascended assimilate into their new reality. The boys learn of a clandestine project commissioned by the government several years before their births and the truth about their dark beginnings. They create powerful enemies and face dangerous obstacles in their quest for freedom.
