About this listen
The newest addition from the author that brought you the Lodestone Series, The Arc of the Universe is sure to delight old fans, and convert new ones alike.
The Agantzane—masters of a vast interstellar alliance known as the Consensus. Who are they? Where do they come from?
With the Damise's AI threatening to absorb both the Consensus and the worlds of Earth-controlled space, Quinn must seek out the ancient and powerful Elinare race with the help of his reanimated son and a ragtag band of allies. Loyalties shift and conspiracies abound in this fast moving third instalment!
The Ascent is the third volume in a four book epic which will transport you to worlds as diverse as Nemazi—a desert planet, wracked by storm fronts of fractured time; Pann—a layered world where civilizations build atop one another and The Haven—a lone world in a null universe—a world that cannot exist and yet does!
“The story is a complex web that asks for careful reading by the reader, but the exciting and fast-paced story is well worth it. I loved how much time author Mark Whiteway has put into building his world. Each species, planet, or group that Quinn meets is given in-depth societies, morals, politics, and characteristics. Not only does this completely pull me into the world, bringing the story to life before my eyes, but it also creates the vastness of the galaxy that Whiteway is creating. The variety makes each situation that Quinn and his companions face feel that much more real and keeps the stakes feeling high.” (Emerson Craig, Literary Blogger)

In this entry of the saga its apparent that Quinn's actions have consequences. What will Quinn sacrifice to save humanity? What is off the table?
Once again, the narration by Jim Perkins is great. Each character is convincingly voiced.
