Reviews
"Teenage angst like you've never seen it before." MTV.com "I wish I could go back and read it again and again - not knowing what would happen." -- MUGGLENET.com, the world's largest Harry Potter site. Newhouse Media: "A new 'Twilight Zone' of a world. Speaking of Uncle Stevie, otherwise known as Stephen King, 'Ascenders' reads like something he might have written back in the Twilight Zone of his own youth. I love Koontz and King and haven't been this excited about an author in a long time." Authors that Rock: "C.L. Gaber has a distinctly cinematic style that turns Ascenders into a butt-kicking movie that plays out in your head with every turn of the page." Trance Reviews: "I couldn't put this book down. The female protagonist Walker Callaghan is right up there with Katniss from 'Hunger Games.' An epic read. I'll be recommending this book to everyone." Author Groupies: "If you're a fan of dystopian epics, this bring a whole new element to the genre: the afterlife. I loved this book. What an original concept! Constantly changing, riveting and thought-provoking." Be Seeing U Book Reviews: This Saga needs a 10 star button!!!! If this isn't already being made into a movie or a T.V. show I'm not sure why not . The second book of the Asenders Saga is just as good if not better as the first. The Pen and the Muse: Ascenders by C.L. Gaber was an utterly refreshing, original, and an un-put-down-able read. This book was brimming with emotions, feels, and had a striking story line that kept you glued to your e-reader. I was completely mesmerized with the characters and their journey of the "in between." With a concept so unique, Ms. Gaber had her readers totally invested with the story of Walker and Daniel. Be prepared to get spell-blinded and fall in love with this beautiful and enchanting story. Booknerds: "I was completely absorbed in the Ascenders world. It's an insanely creative world. AMAZING, AMAZING concept and characters. Daniel and Walker had great chemistry. Daniel is everything a male lead should be. Total crush material. He walks that line of bad boy and sweetheart. Walker was one hell of a strong female character. She was intelligent, quick witted, charming and a bad ass in the best possible way." One Book At a Time: "Ascenders is one of those books you can get lost it. I was excited the whole time I was reading it. It reminded me of why I love this genre so much." Gamers Review Magazine: "I didn't find this book. This book found me. Can't wait to see what's next for Ascenders. Visual novel, please!"

Synopsis
Walker Callaghan, 17, dies and has an epic adventure of an after-lifetime. She finds herself in the Midst where she will attend a high school for the departed called The Academy. Walker falls in love with bad boy Daniel Reid. Despite the threat of soul extinguishment, she helps him return to life., "Teenage angst like you've never seen it before." -- MTV.com Walker Callaghan doesn't know what happened to her. One minute she was living her teenage life in suburban Chicago...and the next minute, she was in a strange place and in a brand new school with absolutely no homework, no rules, and no consequences. Walker Callaghan, 17, is dead. She doesn't go to heaven or hell. She lands at The Academy, a middle realm where teenagers have one thing in common: They were the morning announcement at their high schools because they died young. These high school kids are now caught in a strange "in-between" zone where life hasn't changed very much. In fact, this special teen limbo looks a lot like life in a quaint Michigan town complete with jocks, popular girls and cliques. "There are even cheerleaders in death," Walker observes. It's not a coincidence that the music teacher is a guy named Kurt who "used to have this band." The drama teacher, Heath, is crush worthy because back in his life, he starred in some superhero movie. Principal King explains the rules -- there are none. Why? You can't die twice. There is no homework. No tests. No SATS. You're just there to learn because the human brain isn't fully formed until you're 24. By the way, you can't get hurt physically, so race your Harley off that hillside. But falling in love is the most dangerous thing you can do ...because no one knows how long you'll stay in this realm or what's next. "Losing someone you love would be like dying twice," Walker says. * * * * * * Walker Callaghan has just arrived at the Academy after a tragic car accident. "Is this hell or is this high school?" she asks. She finds out her new life is a bit of both as she falls in love with tat-covered, bad boy Daniel Reid who is about to break the only sacred rule of this place. He's looking for a portal to return back to the living realm. He needs just one hour to retrieve his younger brother who strangely never arrived at The Academy. Bobby is an Earth Bound Spirit, stuck at a plane crash site that took both of their lives as their rich father piloted his private jet nose-first into a cornfield on Christmas Eve. Walker loves Daniel and risks it all to go with him. Have they learned enough to outsmart dangerous forces while transporting a young child with them? Can their love survive the fragmented evil parts of themselves that are now hunting them down as they try to find a way back to the middle? At the Academy, you learn the lessons of an after-lifetime.
