The Backworlds Book 2 is Out!

The sequel to The Backworlds is now available. Craze and his friends continue their adventures in Stopover at the Backworlds’ Edge. See what role chocolate plays in the galaxy this time.

The interstellar portal opens, bringing in a ship that should no longer exist. A battleship spoiling for a fight, yet the war with Earth ended two generations ago. The vessel drops off a Water-breather, a type of Backworlder thought to be extinct. She claims one of Craze’s friends is a traitor who summoned the enemy to Pardeep Station. A betrayal worse than his father’s, if Craze lives to worry about it.

Available for all ereaders from:

Amazon / Amazon UK / B&N / Smashwords
iTunes and Kobo will be available shortly.

If you haven’t read The Backworlds yet, it’s available as a free read from many outlets. See HERE for links.

Inspiring the words M. Pax writes, Mary spends her summers as a star guide at Pine Mountain Observatory in stunning Central Oregon where she lives with the husband unit and two loving cats. She writes science fiction mostly and has a slight obsession with Jane Austen. Mary blogs at http://www.mpaxauthor.com/blog/

A big thank you to everyone who left a comment on my guest post at Rachna’s Scriptorium: How to Trust Yourself as a Writer. It’s still up if you haven’t yet visited.

What role do you think chocolate should play in the galaxy?

A stellar role I should say... Or maybe a universal one? Or a starry role!! Enough already... Sorry - couldn't help myself. Seriously, many congratulations on the book, Lynda!

CONGRATS to Mary! I downloaded a copy of THE BACKWORLDS when I heard about it at Stephen Tremp's blog. I look forward to reading it.

Nice! I enjoyed your post and I'm sure I'm going to enjoy the sequel to Pax's book.

DEZMOND said...

yes, that guest post over at your friend's was a huge hit, Lyndy! I've told you many times you should write a manual on these things.

M Pax said...

Thank you for being part of the launch, Lynda. I truly appreciate it. You're fabulous. :)

Suze said...

I think both you and M are fabulous.

Lynn Proctor said...

i was feeling pretty sick, the other night and i told my husband and daughter that i thought chocolate might make me feel better--they were astounded that i didn't realize how chocolate always made things better :)

Nancy Thompson said...

I love Mary & have just downloaded her work!

Loree Huebner said...

Chocolate should be the cure all medicine - or instead of breaking bread with our enemies and comrades, family and friends, we should break chocolate...everyone would be happy.

Carol Riggs said...

I hadn't read the first one! So I just downloaded BACKWORLDS on my Kindle. Sounds like a fun read. :)

Congrats to Mary. I haven't read the first book, so I'll have to check both of the books out. Thanks for sharing.

I'm so excited for Mary!!!

Lynda R Young as Elle Cardy said...

It's a strong possibility for the future.

Lynda R Young as Elle Cardy said...

Anytime, Mary. It's fabulous to see your success.

Lynda R Young as Elle Cardy said...

It's true. Chocolate does make everything better. ;)

Lynda R Young as Elle Cardy said...

I think you are on to something there! AND when you break tempered chocolate it has that wonderful snap sound that's so satisfying to hear.

Lynda R Young as Elle Cardy said...

Chocolate is so awesome it could fill any of those roles you mentioned. I believe Mary's book will be a great success :)

Rachna Chhabria said...

Deniz Bevan said...

Congratulations, Mary - heck, even your day job sounds exciting!
Chocolate in the universe reminds of the Simpsons episode with Homer in the land of chocolate. I'd live there!

Susan Flett Swiderski said...

I haven't read any science fiction books since I was a kid, but I've heard so many good things about Mary's book, I'm gonna have to give it a whirl. Who knows? Maybe I'm still a sci-fi fan, after all.

Emily R. King said...

Congrats to Mary! This will be another great read, I'm sure.

michelle said...

Chocolate in the universe reminds me how much I would like a Milky Way right now.

Karen Elizabeth Brown said...

I am in the middle of reading this work. No spoilers from me, but this is a great read! It follows her first book in the series, The Backworlds, without missing a step. And I love chocolate!

Mary Aalgaard said...

Fun title and use of chocolate to grab our attention!

And now I'm on my over to Rachna’s Scriptorium! : )
