Author Description

Earned five stars from five reviews on Reader's Favorite. Building a bright future full of optimism for everyone in the universe can be an endless headache, but that won’t stop Preo the salvager from trying. Frustration, isolation, guilt, and injury can’t make her stop, and neither will the endless swarms of robotic warships dominating the galaxy which constantly fire lasers and nuclear warheads at her ship. When Preo’s wanderings divert her to the barren, freezing world of Syth, she finds an opportunity to apply her discoveries: helping the local community fight economic exploitation and encroaching hypothermia by building them a source of overwhelming stellar power. Without that, another of humanity’s dwindling refuges risks dying off and taking another chunk of Preo’s soul along with it. Forging a Second Sun is inspired by numerous works of classic science fiction and rooted in retrofuturism, evoking the same feeling of awe and hope for the future despite how distant that grander future often feels.
