Astra Somnia
...is part mystery, part love story...
...a whole new form of space opera: one that asks:
What if stars are alive?
This is the first story from the Astraverse: a cosmos where the stars themselves are alive. Red dwarfs, Blue giants, Black holes... they're all sentient, conscious beings. A vast and vibrant stellar society, with individuals filling the heavens with bodies of light that last for billions of years.
Meet Carols in Sequins, a reluctantly pregnant Red Dwarf. She has to become a binary, but her Brown Dwarf needs more than physical mass in order to turn Red. She has to nurture a mind capable of coping with life in the heavens. It's not easy. In fact, it's deadly.
In order to gain the skills and overcome death, a baby star - just like human babies - will dream constantly while gestating. They have intense, vivid dreams of mortality.
You see... Becoming Immortal is Fatal.
