GAINESVILLE, Fla. - Missouriar -- Author Lorilyn Roberts announces the upcoming release on September 5, 2025, of her captivating young adult novel, The Eighth Dimension: Frequency, a story that expertly blurs the lines between science and faith. The book follows seventeen-year-old Chumana Ironvein as a mysterious package from a clandestine government program thrusts her from a life of ordinary teenage struggles into a world of secret frequencies, different dimensions, and extraterrestrial contact.

Praised by Readers' Favorite reviewers as "one of the most intriguing stories I have ever read," the book explores the profound questions of human existence: Are we a product of divine creation, evolution, or something else entirely?
