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 like science fiction. This sounds like a good read.
ReplyDeleteI love the inspiration here, from the desert and also working in an observatory, - the book should be a great read. Thanks for the heads up, my dear! Hope all is well. How's your writing coming along? I'm plodding (and plotting along) here, we've had rain and I missed the super moon altogether!! Have a lovely week! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI'll keep watch for it on Kindle. Sounds exciting.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to watch for it on Kindle. I think DH would love it as well.
ReplyDeleteHuzzah! Mary has made a splash with this release :)
ReplyDeleteI've loved all of her blog posts about space and astronomy. Though not a huge science fiction fan, I'm very intrigued about her book. I hope she sells a gazillion copies!
ReplyDeleteWishing her all the best. I think it's wonderful how the blogging/writing community pulls together to help our own. :-)
ReplyDeleteI've got this book all ready to read, but not sure when I'll get around to it! so many books on my TBR :(
ReplyDeleteThanks for being part of the launch, Danette. We've done a good job. Over 1,000 downloads so far and it's not even free on Amazon yet. :)
