Astarte, born from misery in a miserable world, seeks to tear down a framework that has imprisoned humanity. Max, born into an ordinary world and a midwestern existence, must overcome a sudden tragedy and face his true destiny. They both will be compelled to use their cunning, guile, and skill to battle an enemy neither expected.
Descendent, the first book of Ian Halloway's daring new series, paints a different reality from biblical and religious stories that have been woven into the framework of our society. The imaginative universe he creates is unlike anything that has come before it, challenging modern religion and exposing its falsehoods in a thought provoking manner.
