In Ascension Descension, Hell has never been so entertaining-or so dangerous. Every year, the underworld's twisted reality show pits celestial beings, fallen angels, and mortals against one another in a brutal competition to determine the planet's fate. But this year's show is different: Sophia, the forgotten daughter of God, seizes control, turning the spectacle into a final test for all of humanity and beyond.
The rules are simple but terrifying. If Lucifer's team-an elite squad of fallen angels-manages to win, Sophia will ensure Earth's survival for another 10,000 years. But if Sophia's team of mythological figures wins, she'll let the planet die. And who does she choose to fight for her cause? None other than the infamous women of biblical myth: Eve, Jezebel, Delilah, Lilith, and other figures of biblical lore, each selected for their defiance, cunning, and darkness. At the helm of this chaotic spectacle is Dionysus, the Greek god of revelry, who, like his fellow deities, is serving time in Hell for crimes against humanity. His only desire? To escape the underworld once and for all.
Inspired by myth and packed with absurd, darkly comedic commercials, Ascension Descension is a chaotic thrill ride through Hell's reality TV where survival is the only prize. Will the forgotten daughter of God succeed in ending life as we know it, or will Hell's fallen champion manage to buy humanity another 10,000 years?
