In the far future, humanity settles the stars,
bioengineering its descendents to survive in a harsh universe.
To secure his future, Craze must propel his world into a
more prosperous era. Only days away from the grand opening of his new and
improved tavern, he is confronted by a loony Backworlder intent on mucking up
his plans. Gaunt and trembling, she claims her spaceship is possessed. She also
has a connection to the underworld that shakes loose the dark past of one of
Craze’s closest friends. It all threatens to end Craze’s prosperity before it
begins.
Meanwhile off world, Captain Talos works desperately to
outwit the mercenary Jixes and lure them away from his and Craze’s budding
prospects. The mind-control weapon Talos uses against them is wearing thin, and
his next move may be his last.
Will Craze and Talos’s efforts bring about a grand new age
of boom or damn them to forever struggle in the dust?

Definitely being on the spaceship. I can hang out at the space port afterwards. I really like this series based off what I've read here. Thanks for the giveaway and congrats M. Pax.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a post title, Michael.
ReplyDeleteM Pax, what an amazing cover. Well done!
Yeah for Mary!
ReplyDeleteGood Job Mary! I'm starting to get behind, I suppose I'll need to catch up on her Boomtown novels. I've only read the first so far - which was awesome.
ReplyDeleteYay for M. Pax!!! Love this title!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Mary!
ReplyDeleteWow, what an awesome cover. Congrats to Mary!
ReplyDeleteExcited for Mary, yay! Love your post title, Michael. :)
ReplyDeleteI still have the first one to read. Isn't tomorrow your follow-up procedure on your kidney stone? Good luck with that!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Mary. She's making waves for sure.
ReplyDeleteI don't read a lot of science fictions books (Mainly because I haven't found the right one to start with) But that seems very interesting.
ReplyDeleteLove this...can't wait to read Craze's next set of adventures.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone is worthy of being compared to Joss Whedon, then I have to get to my amazon and make me some purchases, pronto-style! :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome, cover, post, but especially Mary! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteScFi certainly seems to be thriving these days. There are probably physiological reasons for this.
ReplyDelete@Theresa: I wrote the post title that way because "The Backwords" is very "Firefly-esque".
ReplyDelete@P.T. Dilloway: Yes, tomorrow is my follow-up surgery and will be my last post this week as I'll be taking the rest of the week to recover. I know, I haven't been blogging much lately. I'll make it up in April for the A to Z challenge.
@DPK: LOL. As I commented above, I compared Mary to Joss because they both write such similar stories.
@Stephen: Please remember that I network (on purpose) with authors who write Science Fiction. Alex, P.T. Dilloway, M. Pax, Ellie Garratt, Stephen Tremp, etc. So by coming to my blog, it may seem like science fiction is booming because I like to highlight their selections. But I suspect that worldwide, sci-fi is actually "down".
Thank you most awesome, Michael. Me and Joss in the same sentence? That gave me flutters :D
ReplyDeleteI owe you a review for Slipstream, which I really liked. Can't wait ot see what happens in Occulus!
Congratulations to Mary! Awesome cover. (:
ReplyDeleteYay for Mary! Her new book sounds fantastic. Love that sharp cover.
ReplyDeleteM Pax has been everywhere today! I LOVE that cover. She's also got a Firefly theme going on. I've been hanging on Firefly boards talking about how it influenced my Neumarian Chronicles. I've got to read her book now!!
ReplyDeleteM Pax is a great writer. Love her books.
ReplyDeleteBoomtown definitely has my attention, and M Pax herself sounds like a real hoot -- love her!
ReplyDeleteMary is becoming quite prolific with all her releases! And I love the photo of her hugging that cannon sized telescope. :)
ReplyDeleteI love that cover too. It reminds me of Stargate Atlantis, one of my favorite shows.
ReplyDeleteMy TBR pile is becoming unwieldy.
ReplyDeleteYour title is an awesome compliment! :)
