Fear takes us down an unexpected road in EOS, a revolutionary Solarpunk story from author Samantha Redstreake Geary, in collaboration with artist Jenny Vyas, featuring music by Really Slow Motion, and groundbreaking graphics via designer Koke Núñez Gómez!
A new dawn is on the horizon, where boundaries are broken, diversity is embraced, and an optimistic, creative vision of our future on Earth takes center stage.
EOS is a powerful solarpunk story narrated by FEAR, who tackles real-world issues concerning terrorism, prejudice, and diversity, to near-future technology surrounding sustainable energy that restores the balance between humanity and nature. This isn’t a defeatist tale. It is a look through the lens of positive futurism that showcases the courage, compassion and capabilities of humanity as equal partners in building a bridge to a better tomorrow.
A Cast of Multicultural Characters
Every turn of the page will challenge what you believe. Every character harbors a secret that will keep you guessing till the end. A young Japanese AI specialist bearing a family burden and her curious red-headed intern who’s more than she appears. A plant geneticist from India with a tragic past and her autistic teen son with a penchant for programming. A feisty Mexican singer in her sixties who makes a mean tamale and her widowed son, a visionary green architect wielding a spectacular Spanish guitar, who honors the spirits of his lost South African wife and their sixteen year old daughter by creating the impossible.

I’m so looking forward to reading this, Sam. It comes at a time when we need to take a hard look at ourselves, the society we’ve created, the fears we’ve allowed to rule us—and to figure out (and commit to) a positive way of dealing with them.

It’s a beautiful look at the ways we are the same underneath the differences as well, It makes the differences gorgeous too!

I’m curious. As an author, how do you make the diverse characters real? Did you have to do a great deal of research on how people different from yourself would look at things? Do readers feel that you represent their culture accurately? I’m struggling with this in my own works, because I’m not sure I’m qualified to tell other people’s story, given how I’ve never been in their shoes.

Enchanting music – I was quickly transported to another world and had tears in my eyes! Excited to meet Arjun and can’t wait to get hold of EOS. Visited Amazon, but would I need a kindle to read it?
