Overview

A new world. A fragile beginning. A future yet to be written. The crew of Odyssey One has crossed the stars, leaving behind the chaos of Earth to build the first human colony beyond the Sol System. But reaching Aurorae was only the beginning. This alien world is vast and untamed, a land of ancient forests, soaring mountain ranges, and relics of a long-vanished civilization-the Heim'val. Their silent cities and shattered technology whisper of brilliance, betrayal, and a fate humanity may yet share. As the colony of Elysium Point struggles to root itself in alien soil, social divisions, unexpected first contact, and the ghosts of Earth's past threaten to unravel everything they've built. Among them, sentient natives-the Kehr'la-watch with uncertain eyes. And something far older watches still. Now, leaders like Dax Sinclair, Zoe Frias, and Juliet Kosovo must navigate not just survival, but transformation-of bodies, minds, and purpose. Their decisions will challenge the very definition of humanity... and determine whether their future lies in the stars or ends beneath them. Welcome to Aurorae: A world as breathtaking as it is unforgiving-where every answer leads to greater unknowns, and the future of the human race may rest in hands that are no longer entirely human.

Author Information

Robb Wetmore is a science fiction and fantasy author whose work blends high-concept ideas with deeply human stories. Drawing inspiration from both cutting-edge science and timeless myths, he crafts immersive worlds that explore the boundaries of technology, identity, and purpose. His debut novel, The Shadow of Light, launched the Seana Byrne series, followed by the sequel Edge of Defiance, praised for its layered characters and rich political intrigue. His more recent Stellar Reach series-including Odyssey One and Aurorae-dives into the challenges of space colonization, AI evolution, and first contact, all grounded in hard science realism. By day, Robb serves as a digital health leader in Oklahoma City, where he works to implement AI-powered tools in value-based care. By night, he builds universes, writes flawed heroes, and consumes more coffee than is medically advisable. He's a regular participant at genre conventions and is a proud member of the International Association of Science Fiction and Fantasy Authors (IASFA). Whether through prose or professional innovation, Robb believes in the power of storytelling to shape the future.
