K.B. Rael

Architect of the Erebos Universe

K.B. Rael is a lifelong world-builder and storyteller whose love of science fiction and fantasy spans decades. Influenced by the mythic depth of The Lord of the Rings, the political gravity of Dune, and the lived-in wonder of Star Wars and Star Trek, Rael constructs universes that feel as ancient as they are alive—where every ruin and whisper hints at a story untold.

In the Erebos saga, Rael explores the tension between progress and preservation, power and purpose. At its core lies Erebium—a sentient, volatile crystal that fuels both miracles and madness. The galaxy teeters on the edge of collapse, caught in a relentless pursuit of more, faster, better—no matter the cost.

Rael’s characters reflect the nuance of real people: Aleron, the driven dreamer weighed down by responsibility; Seraphina, a fierce intellect navigating a world tilted against her; Kael Vorta, a man who sees mercy as weakness and reshapes the stars to his vision. Each embodies the clash between ideals and ambition, softness and survival.

Writing in bursts between the margins of daily life, K.B. Rael has spent over 25 years shaping the world of Erebos—a galaxy built not just for story, but for reflection. Readers are invited to ask: if this world is broken, how did it get that way? And more importantly, what will it cost to fix it?

When the last page is turned, Rael hopes two things linger: a burning desire for the next book, and a quiet realization that the problems of a dying galaxy may not be so distant after all.
