Synopsis

The tale unfolds on an alien planet, where a mysterious amber glow illuminates the sky. Two lifelong friends, driven by curiosity, decide to investigate the enigmatic objects they call "falling sky machines." Their society, governed by strict rules and haunted by the memory of a near-extinction event years ago, lives in constant caution. Armed only with hand-drawn maps to the nearest forbidden object, they embark on their perilous journey.

Meanwhile, a group on an interstellar mission from a doomed Earth confronts the harsh realities of life aboard a generational spaceship. To ensure the survival of their species, people are born only every ten years, with the hope of reaching a distant planet eighteen light years away from humanity's birthplace. This group is destined to be the chosen generation to arrive and colonize the new world that might support life-if they can overcome the anomaly that threatens to make their journey near impossible.

The novel alternates chapters between the two protagonists, exploring their lives as they uncover the mysteries of their world, the stars, and their species.

Back of book blurb:
Amber Glow is a story about discovery, knowledge, survival, and hope.

In 2050, Earth succumbed to catastrophe, leading to the launch of a generational spaceship carrying humanity's last hope.

By 2167, the generation destined to colonize the distant new planet discovered an anomaly that threatens their mission and survival. They must find a solution.

The story begins on an alien planet, in a civilization that has clawed its way back from the brink of extinction; vigilance is the only way. Two friends, fascinated by the mysterious amber glow in the sky, discover hand-drawn maps that lead to the forbidden falling sky machines. Their journey is made more dangerous by enforcers who answer only to the Great Elders.
