adjusted to their new roles in life when an unexpected surprise
appeared on Heirsha--A secret truth. One that could shed light on the
mysteries surrounding the immortal families.
Why so much bitterness? What happened between Jermiar and Huntinylar?
What secrets does Marsacor conceal behind his coarse exterior? Who is
the mysterious family member that no one seems to want to talk about?
And why were both families plagued by constant tragedy? One answer--Khyra Crawford.

Two thousand years before Amber's story began, Khyra was a brilliant
young environmental scientist who wanted her world to be clean from
man's pollution. Her father, a world-renowned chemist, had an idea of
his own and created a devastating chemical that nearly exterminated
all of mankind. She fought hard to repair the damages her father
created. Not to mention take back her life from the one that his
transgressions against humanity made for her. But in doing so, she
found herself dragged into a web of lies, danger, and otherworldly
chaos, and a destiny that wasn't hers to alter.

This is the REAL story, one that should have never been told.
**THIS IS NOT A STAND ALONE BOOK! MUST BE READ AFTER MEMORIES OF CHRONOSALIS!**
Only three percent of the world’s population remained by February 21, 2012. Parks were empty. Playground equipment lay rusting in their wake, waiting for the children that would never come. Restaurants too, lay barren, except for the occasional rodent feasting on the rotting food in the kitchens or human remains. Those who were still alive left store shelves empty, yet another sign of fleeting hope. The major news stations remained in operation until reporters began dying onscreen. And just when life couldn’t get worse, it did. The world’s leading authorities, or what remained of them, banded together and formed what they called The Great Merge.
Soundlessly, we rose high into the sky, the Beacon in its entirety looming below. My eyes widened at the sight as we continued to rise. From the sky, the structure looked like a beetle, with three protruding pods on the outermost parts of each “wing.” The front had a massive round window, which I assumed to be another science lab, but the top metal part of the container formed into an arrow with a jagged center. Strange, glowing blue lines connected the inner parts of the arrow, forming a woven pattern that was mesmerizing. Looking back, Emrys intentionally lingered over the Beacon so I could get a better view as to what it was. I looked at him as he smiled down on this monstrosity as if it were his most prized possession. Then he shifted the hover vehicle into gear, and we soared over the desolate land until the Beacon was no larger than a thumbnail. Emrys stopped the vehicle on the ocean’s edge and directed my attention to a beautiful polar bear and her cubs playing on a distant ice shelf. He flipped a few switches and put the vehicle in idle mode. We peacefully hovered, watching what were possibly the last remnants of nature.
My mortal life may have been done, but my immortal life had just begun. It’s at this part of the story that Amber’s family rose up. But it didn’t have to be them. Emrys’s and Dmitriy’s line branched out wide. Anyone could have been the three people from my vision. But I began relying on these apparitions so much that they were no longer prophetic but self-fulfilling. See, I enlisted an innocent family in a war that wasn’t exactly theirs to fight. All because of a vague assumption that Emrys might be alive after it was all over.

It’s one thing to read about heroes saving worlds in far off galaxies,
but to become one is an entirely different story. Sixteen-year-old
Amber Oak wanted nothing more than to stay in her own world of music
and solitude. But the inhabitants of Galaseya, a Utopian planet
rooted in the past, had other ideas in mind. According to them, only
she wielded the power to stop the dark forces threatening their home.
At first, Amber sympathized with the planet but saw no reason to
involve herself in the affairs of something outside her world. But
the stakes have risen when she discovers that Galaseya is not only
the world that has been invading her dreams but also the place her
estranged family originated from. With this new knowledge, questions
began to surface and secrets of Amber’s life come to light causing
her to second guess everything she knows.

I've been writing stories since I can remember. Stories, I thought, were
just for children my age and I did not think they would go far. At
fifteen years old, I was proven wrong. My parents took a look at my
stories and saw something in them that I could not see. They saw the
potential of a good book, or two!

With my Dad as the editor and my Mom doing the formatting, we
self-published these books. I did not think anyone, other than my
family, would want to read the ramblings of a young teenager. When we
published "Amber Oak Mysteries Volume 1" and "Adventures
of the Young and Curious," I was fifteen years old, then the
unexpected happened. People would write to me and they told me how
much they loved my books.

During the time, when I was seventeen, I stopped writing. I lost faith in
myself and my ability to write. But, my mom suggested that we
publish my third book, for it had been sitting on the shelf for about
two years. She thought it would be good to get it out there before I
started college. I did not see what harm it could do, so my third
book, "Amber Oak Mysteries Volume 2" was published. In 2012
I published "Amber Oak and the Missing Links". I went on to
publish "Amber Oak and the Master of Illusions". In 2015 I
published something different call "The Lost Journal of Erika
Traynor". There is currently available on lulu.com, amazon.com,
and barnesandnoble.com.

Recently I realized I needed to go back and redo the original Amber Oak
Mystery series. It had potential, but I knew I could do better. It
will be different than the originals as it focuses more on science
fiction and fantasy rather than mystery. The title of the book is
"Memories of Chronosalis".
