Angel Ascendant Justin Alan

Angels and humans have never lived in harmony. Casting magic is a privilege unique to angels, and humans must use science and sophisticated technology to modernize their world. In the recent past, an accident caused by magic takes the lives of children which resulted in humans hunting down any angel in sight while the government turned a blind eye. Although the lynching has now stopped, most angels went into hiding, cloaking their wings to pass as humans. Like all human orphans, Ark Haven was adopted at an early age by his country's military. The elite soldier Scyren Hel, an angel who does not share the same fear as his species and proudly wears his wings, sees something special in Ark and chooses to mentor him in the secret art of magical defense. As they age and their bond grows, the infamously stoic Scyren slowly takes on a darker persona, and Ark must balance his duty to his country, and loyalty to a now bloodthirsty friend. After Scyren commits a crime and flees, Ark is tasked by his superiors to capture him. But as the mission gets underway, Ark unravels a secret plot by a mysterious being who has seemingly controlled both Ark and Scyren their entire lives. Angel Ascendant is the first in the trilogy of Psalms of Haven and Hel, a saga hundreds of years in the making that will move god, angel, and man for one single purpose: power.
