MPax is launching her SciFi novel Backworlds today. I was given a sneak preview of Chapter One.
Written in the more direct writing style typical of the SciFi genre, it opens with conflict between the MC, Craze, and his bullying father, who is trying to persuade him to become the emissary for the family business. This will mean travelling into other worlds yet untapped, while the end of the chapter reveals another selfish motive for Bast's choice in his son, Craze, for this job...
How will Craze rise up from under his father's thumb and how will he avoid losing the love of his life, when he'll be many miles away, doing his father's bidding?
It's a promising start to an intriguing premise. Read it and see for yourself...

Congrats to Mary! I like the name Craze. It makes me want to read it just for the character name. :)
Congratulations to Mary! :)
It sounds like the first chapter ends with a great cliffhanger . . .
Congratulations and Happy release day to Mary!
A promising start is right. And very intriguing. I want more! ; )
