A lifelong love of the Cosmos inspired Dr Maureen B. Roberts, science graduate and university literary Prize winner, to write Soul Among the Stars.<\/p>\n

We have witnessed what the love of power can inflict upon our world. We need to replace that destructiveness with the power of love.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014 Dr Herbert van Erkelens<\/p>\n

ADELAIDE, SOUTH AUSTRALIA, AUSTRALIA, September 17, 2026 \/EINPresswire.com<\/a>\/ — A companion to Roberts\u2019 recently published science fantasy epic An Era in Anddemar<\/a>, Soul Among the Stars<\/a> – scheduled for publication by Collective Ink Books in 2027 – is a series of vividly detailed \u2018Messages\u2019 from the \u2018Ancient Starseeders\u2019, conveyed through Roberts as an Oracle. The Messages invite readers into the Cosmos as an intimate family network and shared home, a vibrant community and \u2018new myth\u2019 permeated with \u2019the Mystery of love\u2019. <\/p>\n

The Starseeders offer challenging yet encouraging Messages about our place within the Cosmos as a dynamic web of relationships. They shed light on our evolutionary development, our blind spots, and our individual and shared need to transition into heart-centred consciousness. What makes the book unique is its dense interfusion of several fields of knowledge and experience, including Celtic and Goddess mythology, astronomy, depth psychology, Crop Circle events, soul healing, physics, astrology, and \u2018Star Children\u2019 phenomena. This seamless tapestry allows the medium to reflect the message that any genuinely new myth needs to weave every facet of life into a harmonious whole.<\/p>\n

In An Era in Anddemar, as in Soul Among the Stars, a diverse multitude of beings, living stars, science, Nature, alchemy, the Grail, and shamanism interweave into a multifaceted mythology that unfolds in our \u2018Eleventh Era\u2019. But while Anddemar has its own huge array of characters, Soul Among the Stars\u2019 citizens belong to our own Milky Way galaxy, given that most of the book\u2019s Messages focus on Earth, or our own solar family, or our nearest stellar neighbours.<\/p>\n

With sentiments that apply equally to Soul Among the Stars, Blue Reviews\u2019 5 Star Editorial Review describes An Era in Anddemar as \u2018an expansive, unconventional, deeply imaginative work of mythopoeic fiction. It is romantic without apology . . . and cosmic while remaining preoccupied with the profoundly human need to belong.’ They add that \u2018Roberts attempts something considerably daring: she imagines an entire cosmos as a living, interconnected organism.\u2019 This is precisely where Soul Among the Stars is coming from. <\/p>\n

Blue Reviews add that with An Era in Anddemar, the \u2018boundaries between body, mind, dream, matter, and cosmos repeatedly become permeable. The result is a universe in which travelling through space can simultaneously feel like travelling through the psyche.\u2019 Once again, this is Soul Among the Stars in a nutshell.<\/p>\n

With a Foreword by theoretical physicist Dr Herbert van Erkelens, Soul Among the Stars, though at times playful, is neither light reading, nor tarnished with New Age fuzziness and sentimentality. Roberts fearlessly tackles enigmas such as dark energy, dark matter, the nature of light, and the fifth dimension, braiding them all into an intricate mythology. This is a substantial, densely layered, poetically articulated vision that presents a new paradigm grounded in empathy, unity and relatedness, instead of on impersonal objectivity, compartmentalised knowledge, and cold analysis. <\/p>\n

For many years, Roberts and van Erkelens dialogued about the links between dreams, Jungian archetypes, mythic themes, and sacred geometry as they explored the need for a new science which marries spirit and matter, and is grounded in a fresh understanding that embraces intuition, musical principles, and ancient wisdom. As Roberts suggests, \u2019Change the way we relate to the Cosmos and our world, and science itself will be forced to change.\u2019<\/p>\n

While An Era in Anddemar is a vast mythology that defies genre limitations and stylistic conventions, Soul Among the Stars is a much shorter, devotional text that nonetheless embodies its parent epic\u2019s imaginative scope, Romantic prose style, and soulful depth.<\/p>\n

Together the two books unfold a \u2018what if\u2019 scenario that explores how a living galactic network might function if instead of evolving technologically, it instead developed consciousness to a point where the Cosmos is known and experienced as a network of beings and communities working as one, living in harmony with Nature, and supporting one another in times of crisis.<\/p>\n

As Dr van Erkelens concludes in his Foreword, \u2019We have witnessed what the love of power can inflict upon our world. We need to replace that destructiveness with the power of love.\u2019<\/p>\n

Roberts has also just released her autobiographic book StarDreaming<\/a>: Letters From a Mystic to a Science Fiction Author, published by Collective Ink Books [London]. In it she shares the extraordinary story of how a prophetic dream – in which twin stars orbited a common centre – prefaced her intense relationship with Award-winning science fiction author, Damien Broderick (who coined the term \u2018virtual reality\u2019). <\/p>\n
