Colby Blue is a story of a bright, sensitive Latinx, boy who becomes alienated on Earth after losing his parents. Wishing to explore the cosmos, he devises a way to escape the planet after reading Jack and the Beanstalk. He constructs a stairway to the sky, using the endless stacks of books on his family's property. His very own Tower of Babel. Books that were rescued from library dumpsters around the U.S. by his quirky, adoptive librarian parents - the Bookmans.

Shaman, a mysterious Indigenous American female elder, enters Colby's life by gifting him a cosmic talisman - his own UniCrystal - a bio-feedback orb that synchronizes and reinforces his connection with Universe. After months of hard work and ingenuity,

Colby's tower of books made from the collective knowledge of humanity reaches unbelievable heights like a giant Jenga tower in the sky. He gets infinitely more than he bargained for and begins to experience what no human has before - multidimensional adventures with a diverse array of benevolent, enlightened Cosmic Cousins from across the galaxy that bring messages and simple solutions to guide humanity's ascension into the 5th Dimension. They highlight lessons on the environment, the food that we eat, ecology, etc.

These beings put Colby through mental health tests of faith in preparation for him to leave Planet Earth in a more empowered and awakened state, leaving his sense of victimhood behind.

In this quest to see what is on the other side of the veil, just beyond our reach, Colby explores kaleidoscopic worlds that go beyond human imagination, inspiring a new awareness of the infinite Universe that we all inhabit yet only beginning to understand.
