about me

Shay Fabbro was born in Longmont, CO and moved to the town of Grand Junction, CO in the early 1980′s. She earned her Bachelor’s degree in Biology from Mesa State College before earning her doctorate degree in Human Medical Genetics from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, CO. While hard at work on her PhD, Shay had a series of dreams that continued to haunt her even during the light of day. The idea for a series of science fiction/fantasy novels began to take shape. Nearly a year was spent designing the multiple planets, characters, histories, cultures, personalities, and sketching maps. It would take another four years for the first draft of The Chosen to be completed and another year or more to do multiple re-writes and edits and formatting. The end result is a novel spanning an entire galaxy, filled with believable characters, human and alien alike, and conflicts both great and small.

Dr. Fabbro currently lives in Grand Junction with her husband, Rich, and their two cats. When not writing novels, she teaches biology classes at Mesa State College. She is hard at work on the second novel in the Portals of Destiny series, Shattered Destiny, as well as a new young adult series, The Adventures of Alexis Davenport.

The Chosen is available to purchase in e-book and paperback. Visit my www.thechosenbook.com and click on the Buy Now tab for details.

The Chosen: Book One of the Po....

Shay Fabbro

The Mekans threatens all life in the galaxy and only the Chosen can fight these metal monstrosities and save those that call this galaxy home.


The Mekans were created to mine for precious resources. However, something goes terribly awry when they dig uncontrollably, destroying all life they encounter. The Masters of Gentra, keepers of the prophecy, send Guardians to guide and protect the Chosen. Astra is home to those that practice the art of magic. Volgon houses a fierce warrior race whose very survival is dependent on fighting. On Kromin, a race of telepaths possesses the ability to communicate with alien species. Humans who, through their own folly, have brought themselves to the brink of destruction populate Earth. When the Guardians reveal to the Chosen their role in saving the galaxy, their lives are cast into turmoil. Many did not know of the existence of other worlds. They are not sure they want any part of this destiny. The Chosen must overcome their fear, their doubt, and their anger in order to fulfill their destiny. This series will bring the reader face-to-face with an age-old question: How much of our lives are preordained and how much of our future do we determine for ourselves? Do you believe in fate/destiny or do you believe that your life is what you choose it to be?

While I prefer conflict and fighting, I know this isn't for everyone. I am not sure I would be able to stick with this for a long period without some sort of conflict or drama right at the beginning. But that's just me! Everyone has their own stuff they prefer. But this is YOUR story and you have to... view book
