In today’s episode, I am chatting with E.H. Underhill. E.H. is the author of The Solar Storm Chronicles - New Heroes. He is also a Christian, husband and father of three, but to keep the lights on he draws house plans during the day. He is from Plymouth, Massachusetts but currently resides in Central Florida, the setting for his first book. His writings are inspired by his Christian faith and growing up with Star Wars, Marvel and DC. He is now starting his own superhero universe to give an alternative to the mainstream ones that have been injected with politics and toxic secular values. 

E.H. shares his journey of creating a superhero universe that offers a family-friendly alternative to mainstream franchises. We discuss his book The Solar Storm Chronicles - New Heroes, which is recommended for readers aged 12 and up. The level of action and violence is comparable to The Lord of the Rings, making it an exciting yet appropriate read for young teens and families alike. This episode is a must-listen for fans of superhero stories, parents looking for meaningful content for their families.

Episode Highlights:

  • E.H.’s Inspiration: How his Christian faith and love for iconic franchises shaped his writing.
  • Family-Friendly Superheroes: Crafting a superhero universe with positive, engaging themes for all ages.
  • Upcoming Projects: Sneak peeks into the comic books and additional books in The Solar Storm Chronicles trilogy.
  • Parenting Wisdom: The importance of curating content for children and allowing them to enjoy being bored.
  • Family Adventures: The joy of road trips, camping, and building memories with kids.
