it was amazing

Ascenders: Omorrow is book 3 in the Ascenders saga by C.L Gaber and follows on from Ascenders: High School for the Recently Departed (book 1) and Ascenders: Skypunch (book 2).

Ascenders: Omorrow takes up where book 2 ended. Walker, Daniel and the rest of the group return to the past in search of ‘The Hiding� but there are also groups from other realms on the hunt, so Walker and Daniel’s group need to find the clues that “were hidden beneath the crevices and between the rocks and mortar of the most crowded city in the world over various decades that were memories�. The group find themselves in New York in the living realm and they're able to interact with the living but must ensure they don't do anything that will change the past because that will also change the future. Also, if you die in the past, then you can't exist in the future! This mission is dangerous but a necessary one.

“The universe, most say, operates by a certain moral code. It goes like this: You will only be given exactly what you can handle. My name is Walker Callaghan. Somewhere . . . someone must think I’m a real badass.� - Walker

After reading the first two books in this saga, I was keen to continue the story of Walker and Daniel who are a couple with immense strength and love, which has helped them get through and survive everything that's come their way so far. I hoped this would still be the case in Ascenders: Omorrow because they couldn't get this far and then fail. I was also looking forward to learning more about characters I'd previously met in the first two books and was left with questions that needed answering.

I have to say that Ascenders: Omorrow is my favourite book by C.L Gaber so far and I wasn't able to put it down. I kept saying to myself ‘just one more chapter� but that chapter then became another chapter and another and another. I wasn't able to find a point where I could stop because I was so involved in the story and plot twists that you don't see coming. C.L Gaber describes New York from the past so well. I love history, so this book was perfect for me and it made me want to actually go to the ‘old' New York myself. It was great to learn more about New York and all the characters as they jumped from era to era. I'm also so glad that C.L Gaber continued with the theme of including famous people who are dead as I think this concept is so clever, especially with the way the author weaves it into everything else.

I went through so many emotions whilst reading this book but I was left crushed right at the end because I did not expect the ending. I can't wait for Ascenders: 11:11 (book 4) to see where C.L Gaber goes next as the ending leaves it wide open for the story of Walker and Daniel to go in many different directions. The quote I've included further up in my review has to be one of my favourites and is something I should believe in when my life isn't going as planned or expected.

I recommend that readers definitely read this saga as it's nothing like I've come across before and C.L Gaber is a master of the imagination.
