Amber Benson To Play The Role of Nightfall in ElfQuest: The Audio Movie

There was some exciting news for fans earlier today as it was confirmed that Amber will play the role of Nightfall in ElfQuest: The Audio Movie.
 
ElfQuest was first released in 1978 as a comic book series created by Wendy and Richard Pini. Now for the first time in over 40 years they are planning to take ElfQuest from the page  into an exciting new medium. Turning their creation into an exciting professionally produced audio movie and you can help be part of it via the crowdfunding site Kickstarter.
 
First things first, what is an audio movie? A professional and talented cast of actors will voice individual characters with sound effects and a professionally produced music score,  which will offer fans a unique experience far beyond what's available on the page. It's an adaption of the first five comic books in this long-running series. Wendy Pini is adding new material and answering questions which will further expand the story beyond the original comic books.
 
ElfQuest tells the story of The Wolfriders a band of elves exiled from their home forest and forced into the desert. This brings them into a conflict with a rival elf tribe The Sun Folk which is when The Mother of Memory intervenes and sets both tribes on a new path, but can they work together?
 
Amber will join a talented cast including:
 
Alejandro Saab
Osric Chau 
Cree Summer
Divinity Roxx 
Pun Bandhu
 
Amber will play the role of Nightfall, here is her character summary from the official Kickstarter a page. “Trustworthy, brave and determined, Nightfall is defender of all she loves and believes in. She would have no fear of felling a longtooth with just a knife in her hand—but she would prefer to have her bow. A skilled huntress, she kills to provide and protect. While Nightfall embraces her rugged wolf-side, she is also an embodiment of feminine sensuality.”
 
As I said earlier ElfQuest: The Audio Movie is currently running a Kickstarter campaign where fans can help fund this unique project. The good news is this project is already successfully funded after having reached its target goal. However there is still time to join the Kickstarter the campaign with a range of rewards on offer. These include early access to ElfQuest: The Audio Movie downloadable copies, mini figures, badges, fine art prints and lots more.

At the time of writing the campaign has 16 days to go and will end on 26th of June 2021 and 2 AM UK time.
 
I'm so excited that this project has already reached its funding goal. I think the character of Nightfall is perfect for Amber to play and I can't wait to hear her bring Nightfall to life using all of her extensive acting experience both on screen and in other audio projects and audiobooks. 
 
I'd like to thank fellow Amber fan Samantha for giving me a heads up earlier today about this exciting project.

Exciting news for Amber fans as she is set to attend an online event to discuss friend and fellow author Cory Doctorow’s novel, Attack Surface.
 
Author Cory Doctorow is celebrating the release of his new novel, Attack Surface with a series of events discussing his work and a number of related topics. Attack Surface tells the story of Masha Maximow, a cyber security specialist, making a very good living working for a global company monitoring activists and dissidents. She is conflicted about her work and occasionally uses her skills to help activists go undetected, without letting her bosses know of course. Masha may soon have to decide where her loyalties lie once and for all. Attack Surface is a stand-alone novel set within the Little Brother Series.
 
Amber has narrated the audiobook version of Attack Surface which is available to pre-order via a recent Kickstarter a campaign. The complete Attack Surface audiobook narrated by Amber can be yours for just $15 on digital files that you can keep and listen to forever. At the time of writing this update the Kickstarter campaign has just a couple of hours to go, so if you want to get involved in the Kickstarter, there is still time if you act fast. To find out more about the Kickstarter Campaign click here.
 
This special online event is being hosted by Massachusetts bookstore, Brookline Booksmith using Zoom video calling platform. Cory and Amber will be joined by John Rogers for what I'm sure will be a fascinating discussion. Tickets cost $35 this includes a signed copy of Attack Surface which will be signed and posted out to you after the event and is included in this price. Please note event organisers are only able to ship books within the United States. 
 
The event will take place on 14 October at 8PM EDT for UK-based fans like myself due to the time difference. The event will take place at 1 AM BST on 15 October according to the event page. When I open the event page it automatically defaults to the UK date and time of the event. Update as of the 13/10/2020 The USA time now confirmed as
