The World of Dominion Ascension

In the aftermath of global collapse and chemical warfare, a new society rises. Welcome to Dominion, governed by women, engineered by intellect, and protected by control.

In Dominion, intelligence isn’t just power. It’s placement. Every boy is tested at age twelve. Every man wears a collar that marks his value. And every citizen is taught to believe the system works.

But not everyone agrees.

Danielle (Dani) is the daughter of Dominion’s most powerful architect, Linda, a woman who helped design the Illegis system that determines who is worthy of freedom. As a reporter for the state-run Beacon, Dani has spent her life asking questions she’s never dared to answer.

Until now.

When Dani reconnects with her childhood best friend Robbie, they uncover a resistance network called the Elevators, and a truth that shatters everything they’ve been taught. Their escape to Haven is only the beginning. What awaits them is not refuge, but another form of control and a brutal Becoming they must survive to earn their place.

For fans of The Handmaid’s Tale, Divergent, and The Power, this debut speculative novel explores the politics of control, the fragility of identity, and the slow, dangerous rise of truth.
