The Blood Ascension

THE CITY BELONGS TO THE NIGHT.

AND THE NIGHT KNOWS HIS NAME.

People are disappearing.

Military checkpoints multiply.

Emergency curfews expand across the city.

Something is hunting after dark.

When former military contractor Lucian Vale returns home after a security assignment overseas, he expects to rebuild a normal life. Instead, he witnesses a massacre that should be impossible—black-eyed predators tearing through an apartment complex with inhuman speed and brutality.

Then one of them looks directly at him.

And lets him live.

As a hidden war erupts between ancient vampire Houses and a secret organization known as the Order of Ash, Lucian discovers a terrifying truth:

The monsters were searching for him.

Hunted by vampires, pursued by shadowy operatives, and haunted by visions of forgotten civilizations buried beneath the world, Lucian is drawn into a conflict older than human history. Deep beneath the city, an ancient force known only as The Vein is awakening, and every bloodline fears what comes next.

Because Lucian carries something they believed was lost forever.

Something the ancient Houses have not seen in centuries.

Something they call...

THE LAST BLOOD.

Perfect for fans of Empire of the Vampire, The Strain, and The Passage, The Blood Ascension: Red Night is a dark, action-packed vampire epic filled with ancient mysteries, supernatural warfare, political intrigue, and cosmic horror.

The awakening has begun.
