Reeksen: 46. Ascending (1)
Somadina is a young Nigerian beauty who thinks that her telepathic abilities are perfectly normal. So when her sister becomes a captive, the young Igbo woman draws upon her powers to find an ally. What she finds is Lola, a cranky Texan geophysicist who does not believe in nonsense and insists on ignoring the disturbing phenomenon in her mind. However, these two women have more in common than they realize, and they are about to learn how well that will forge a powerful link. As Somadina discovers that her sister has become a strategic pawn in a dangerous game, she vows to do anything to get the attention of this kindred, uncooperative lady. This forces x0, an ancient organization with good reasons to stay hidden, to reluctantly emerge from the shadows. Somebody really needs to intervene. Both women are far stronger than they know, and to make matters worse, a fringe fanatic may be on the verge of altering a nation’s future.

Reeksen: 46. Ascending (3)
This speculative fiction book weaves the story of U.S. immigration, and the tale of an undocumented young Mexican, into a treasure hunt complicated by time-warping, telepathy, and a strident group of white nationalists. Alex teaches physics at a country school in Texas where an influx of immigrants is reigniting a history of organized hate. When the new principal sides with those who want to turn the clock backwards to an era of white supremacy, Alex can no longer sit on the sidelines. An old friend reappears with an ancient Maya mystery that Alex is uniquely qualified to solve, and Alex’s quiet life turns into a rare opportunity to bridge the past and the future. For the down-to-earth Alex is a man who once walked away from a odd ability to warp time. Now, he needs to rediscover his own special temporal talents in order find something billed as “the world’s greatest treasure,” all while keeping shameful legacies from harming some of his best students and those he loves most.

Zane swore as a child to protect all the odd people of the world, studying chameleons and muscle groups to teach himself to alter his own appearance. No longer a young boy too smart and too different to fit in, Zane starts his first job at a pharmaceutical company where he uncovers layers of corporate secrets that hide surprisingly vile plans. Once he is sent on a sales trip to the South Pacific, it becomes clear that there are those who would kill to protect the mysteries that the company has worked so hard to keep hidden. Charged with murder and hunted by an unsavory boot camp manager, he finds himself sailing to remote islands with a shadowy group known as y1. Fantasy, reality and a bit of speculative science come together as Zane uses all his unique abilities to resist turning from a murder suspect into a murder victim. He still plans to find a way to keep his childhood promise, if he can only live long enough to do so.

Reeksen: 46. Ascending (1)
x0 is an ancient organization with good reasons to stay hidden. Somadina is a young Nigerian who thinks that her telepathic abilities are perfectly normal. So when her sister becomes a captive, the young Igbo woman draws upon her powers to find an ally. Across an ocean, Lola is a Texan geophysicist who does not believe in nonsense. When an unexpected lay-off and a near fatal accident combine to reintroduce a disturbing phenomenon into her mind, Lola pretends it isn’t there. Unfortunately, the changes taking place inside her will not be ignored. These two women have more important things in common than they realize, and they are about to learn how well that will forge a powerful link. For as Somadina discovers that her sister has become a strategic pawn in a larger and more dangerous game, she vows to do anything to get the attention of this kindred, uncooperative lady. This forces x0 to reluctantly emerge from the shadows. Somebody really needs to intervene. Both women are far stronger than they know, and to make matters worse, a fringe fanatic may be on the verge of altering a nation’s future.

Reeksen: 46. Ascending (3)
An injury ended Alex Zeitman’s hopeful basketball career decades ago and today he coaches, teaches physics, and parents three talented quirky children alongside his rather odd wife Lola. His country school has a long history with organized hate groups and a sad tradition of bigotry, and the recent influx of Latino immigrants has brought out new intolerance. But when the administration itself looks like it wants to turn the clock backwards to an era of white supremacy, Alex can no longer sit idle. An old friend from his own high school days reappears along with an ancient Maya mystery that Alex is uniquely qualified to help solve, and suddenly Alex has his hands full. The past and present intertwine as both sets of issues force Alex to come to terms with the tempo altering talents that he thought that he left behind years ago on a basketball court. As he and his family find themselves in danger, it becomes obvious that Alex has to accept that his empathic wife has become a telepath and that his quiet genius son has taught himself how to alter his own appearance. Alex struggles with his definition of reality as he recognizes that he must also learn to control his special temporal abilities before legacies from long ago harm those he loves, and before his own era loses a rare opportunity to bridge the past and the future.

Reeksen: 46. Ascending (2)
Zane swore as a child to someday protect all of the odd people in the world. He studied chameleons and muscle groups as he taught himself to alter his own appearance, and it turned out that skills for blending were very helpful to a young boy too smart and too different to fit in well. But as an adult, things have changed. Zane finds that he now just wants to be himself. He gets a degree in neuroscience to understand abilities that even he recognizes as astonishing. Worst of all, he is fast discovering that everyone is odd. He hadn’t counted on that. When he lands in the sales department of Penthes Pharmaceuticals, he begins to uncover layers of corporate secrets that ultimately will hide surprisingly vile plans. Sent on a sales boondoggle to the South Pacific, he finds others with talents as surprising as his own and with problems far worse. As his new friends flee the malicious schemes of those who would control them, Zane wants to help. Their freedom-loving philosophy of y1 calls to him. But first, he must deal with a murder charge. And an unsavory boot camp manager. And serious repercussions from the fact that not everyone at Penthes likes him, or wants him to knows the mysteries that the company has worked so hard to keep hidden. Can he help them all? Can he even help himself? Fantasy, reality and a bit of speculative science come together as Zane uses all the unique abilities he has to resist turning from a murder suspect into a murder victim. Then he has to sort out just how to keep that childhood promise.

Reeksen: 46. Ascending (1)
What if you are capable of far more than you realize? x0 is an ancient organization that normally has good reasons to stay hidden. Recent developments, however, have forced the group to emerge from the shadows. A Texan geophysicist who doesn’t believe in any type of nonsense is trying to ignore a disturbing phenomenon introduced into her mind during a near fatal accident. Across an ocean, a young Nigerian who thinks that her telepathic abilities are perfectly normal is trying to find an ally. Her sister has become a captive, and the young Igbo woman is drawing upon her own formidable powers to find a woman like herself, with a fierce sense of justice and a deep desire to protect the helpless. These two women have more in common than either knows, and x0 realizes how that can forge a powerful link. Worse yet, once the Nigerian discovers that her sister has become a strategic pawn in a larger and more dangerous game, she vows to do anything to get the attention of this kindred, uncooperative lady. Both women are far stronger than they know, and to make matters worse, a fringe fanatic may be on the verge of altering a nation’s future.

Reeksen: 46. Ascending (3)
What if you could do far more than you realize? What if you could do things that others would consider impossible? The collection of books called 46. Ascending asks this as five very different members of a family each discover that they respond to danger by developing skills that appear to defy logic. An injury ended Alex Zeitman’s hopeful basketball career decades ago and today he coaches, teaches physics, and parents three talented quirky children alongside his rather odd wife Lola. His country school has a long history with organized hate groups and a sad tradition of bigotry, and the recent influx of Latino immigrants has brought out new intolerance. But when the administration itself looks like it wants to turn the clock backwards to an era of white supremacy, Alex can no longer sit idle. An old friend from his own high school days reappears along with an ancient Maya mystery that Alex is uniquely qualified to help solve, and suddenly Alex has his hands full. The past and present intertwine as both sets of issues force Alex to come to terms with the tempo altering talents that he thought that he left behind years ago on a basketball court. As he and his family find themselves in danger, it becomes obvious that Alex has to accept that his empathic wife has become a telepath and that his quiet genius son has taught himself how to alter his own appearance.
