Book Description
The first book of Joseph Kim and Christopher Boom's Mark of Ascension Series, set in a futuristic United States, paints a beautiful picture of a corrupted society and one character's struggle for greatness. "The group of five boys held the defenseless little girl by the arms, digging a sharp rock into her collarbone. As they carved at the distinct wolf-shaped tattoo, I heard her terrified cries ring out through the city, and the image of hundreds of people chanting for Charles' murder flashed through my mind. 'You should see what they do to people like us in the Core Sectors. I heard they literally use us Bastards as slaves, ' a distant voice echoed, and I finally saw the world for what it was." In the United Republic, a post-modern country born to replace the United States, the social hierarchy is everything. The elite of society live in luxury and run the country while "Bastards," children born unsanctioned by the law, are treated like filth. Ethan Holfstras is one of those "Bastards," and even his early friendship with Hannah Kamiya, a revered young genius, failed to save him from society's condemnation and criticism. But just several weeks after he graduates from the Academy, he is called to Camp Daedalus, a military camp of unknown purpose. For weeks, he is isolated: away from Hannah, away from the Sectors, and away from society. When he comes back, he is implanted back into the hierarchy, but not as a Bastard. How dangerous is it?More than you can imagine. What's at stake? The country, and the life of everyone he loves.
