My Blood Is Ascendant

Six months after the death of the ancient being who created him, Astor should finally be free. Instead, a cult is beginning to worship the Nephilim, Cypria. Across forgotten towns and abandoned highways, shrines begin to rise in her image. Survivors sing hymns to the silver-haired goddess who saved them, while stories of her power spread faster than the truth. At the center of it all is Thaesivar, an ancient demon king who never lies-and who believes humanity was left unfinished.His promise is as seductive as it is terrifying: through Cypria, mankind can become something greater. As the faithful gather in the dying shadow of Briarwood, Astor and Cypria are hunted by Nhalek the Unmade, a demon assassin who has spent centuries reshaping himself into the perfect predator. To survive, they must once more cross into the Cataclysm, a realm where demons roam freely, human weakness is punished, and the corruption festering inside Astor feels less like a curse than a reward.But the greatest danger is not the monster stalking them. It is the ancient instrument known as the Canticle-a relic capable of rewriting the essence of anyone willing to accept its song. Only Cypria can play it, only she can destroy it, and Thaesivar is determined to convince the world that transformation is not death, but destiny.As faith becomes fanaticism and Astor's power grows darker, Cypria must decide what it truly means to save humanity... before humanity willingly becomes something else.
