Introducing The Backworlds by M. Pax

So, you guys might already be aware but...

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.

I'm sure you'll all join me in wishing Mary great success with The Backworlds and the sequel!!

  7. Thanks, Theresa, Rek and JA.

    Yes, 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.

    And thank you for being part of the launch, Annalisa. I truly appreciate you helping me be visible on the internets this week.
