The Backworlds is
here!
The first story in the Backworlds series by
M. Pax. A vision of how humanity might colonize the galaxy some day in the
distant future.
The Backworlds
After
the war with Earth, bioengineered humans scatter across the Backworlds. Competition
is fierce and pickings are scant. Scant enough that Craze’s father decides to
hoard his fortune by destroying his son. Cut off from family and friends, with
little money, and even less knowledge of the worlds beyond his own, Craze heads
into an uncertain future. Boarding the transport to Elstwhere, he vows to make
his father regret this day.

M. Pax’s inspiration comes from the wilds
of Oregon, especially the high desert where she shares her home with two cats
and a husband unit. Creative sparks also come from Pine Mountain Observatory
where she spend her summers working as a star guide. She writes mostly science
fiction and fantasy, but confesses to an obsession with Jane Austen. She blogs
at her website, www.mpaxauthor.com and
at Wistful Nebuae. You’ll find
links there to connect on Twitter, Goodread, FB and other sites.
The sequel, Stopover at the Backworlds’ Edge,
will be released in July 2012. It will be available in all ebook formats and
paperback.

ReplyDeleteYes, Matt, that's a face. A friend of mine did an original illustration for book 2 (which used to be book 1), and so I used part of it in this cover.
Thanks, Alex, Marta, Libby and Misha.
