For this episode, I sat down with Amber Toro to discuss the release of her upcoming science fiction novel, Umbra. Umbra is the first book in the Sentient Stars Trilogy, an intergalactic, space opera, adventure story, with a slow burn, enemies to lovers romance, told from 3 POV’s, with fully sentient starships, a militaristic society, alien worlds, and a signal in the darkness that threatens to destroy humanity.

I was able to learn a little bit about how the passing of Amber’s father helped to motivate her to finally pursue her dream. Amber also goes into great detail on stories have influenced her writing as well as the detail she has considered when creating her universe.

Amber’s Kickstarter is live until April 3rd so I encourage you to have a look to see the stunning artwork on display along with the creative story she has crafted.
