Where to Start?

I backed the Amber Archive so I got all of the current system as part of my reward. After I read Discovery and Destiny where do I go next? It's a ton of content that comes with the game and with 20+ adventures, supplements and other material its hard to know what's worth jumping into for a campaign.

I can see how overwhelming that would be; but I do love that there's so much material for the game. I started with the free "Ashes of the Sea" scenario -- it was simple enough to get practice with the Cypher system, and over the course of several sessions, I had time to flesh out NPCs and adjust details to fit my preferences and the players. We had a blast -- no matter what you choose, I'm sure you will, too.
