Ascendai: The Destiny Crest - Tapa dura

It's said that we can all choose our own destiny. But sometimes, for a special few, destiny has no choice but to choose for you. Born into hardship, Kolt Connors finally gets what he's always dreamt of, a loving family and home, only to have them ripped from him in a senseless tragedy. Fighting through his pain he feels compelled to go back to the scene of his family's accident, high in the desolate mountains of Colorado. Struggling to understand his purpose, he begins to strongly sense a member of his family may have survived and is in need of his help. Unbeknownst to him, destiny is guiding him toward a mysterious blue eyed, white wolf that forges a mystical bond with him, linking him to a long line of Ascendai warriors from the past. Endowed with special knowledge and abilities, he is thrust into a perilous world he never knew existed; where supernatural beings exist and are seeking to extinguish purity from the earth as commanded by the three sons of darkness, known as the Ancients.

Ascendai has been co-written by Steve M. Robinson and Pauline Walsh, who currently live in the Nashville area. These good friends and colleagues have worked together teaching and sharing their short stories with children for over two decades. In 2010 they officially joined forces and began writing their stories together, their love for children and passion for writing inspiring them daily.
