Ascension: The gripping new speculative time travel thriller of 2023

Product Information

Cuando lees Dagón de adolescente su desarrollo y final te estremecen, cuando vuelves años después el cuento te produce ternura: qué hace ese narrador psicótico, acechado, según el, por criaturas anfibias que desafían nuestra comprensión, escribiendo cómo está siendo acosado por dichas abominaciones en vez de salir por patas. El misterio es sólido, queremos saber más de la montaña y todo lo que la rodea: quién o qué la ha puesto ahí, por qué esta ahí, qué efectos está produciendo sobre los protagonistas y qué secreto se oculta en la cima. Now and then I would feel out of sync with the world, as if it is some giant secret that I am not allowed into, and that I am completely disconnected with both the past and the present.

El grupo es patrocinado por una misteriosa firma militar/corporativa que busca desentrañar los secretos de la montaña para apropiárselos.

The book begins with a foreword from Ben Tunmore whose brother, Harold, a scientist of strange phenomena has been missing for 30yrs. He pulled out a few pieces of paper, which he tapped on the desk to keep in line before placing them in front of him.

Our main protagonist Harold is a really complex character, dealing with grief and the loss of everything he once knew. It’s a strange mixture of smart speculative concepts, and some of the worst dialogue and cheesy, cliché reveals I’ve read in a B-horror.Still, as the dangers increase, the mystery of the mountain compels them to its peak, where they are certain they will find their answers. Bien, no veréis nunca al personaje hacer algo inteligente en la novela, ni un acto ni una deducción brillante que no se le haya revelado antes o que cualquiera con dos dedos de frente y mínimos conocimientos científicos podría hacer.

You wouldn't be allowed to be with me, obviously, as then you'd hear the name of the access, and even that would be too much.Ascension is quite a quick paced book that incorporates science fiction, thriller, and horror elements that make you not want to look away. It was as though, all of a sudden, all the swallows that would normally have migrated south for winter were coming back early.
