Overview

The Backworlds Book 2. Nothing sane travels the starway. Today it brings disaster.
In the far future, humanity settles the stars, bioengineering its descendents to survive in a harsh universe.
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.

Editorial Reviews

Goodreads - Mark Coker
The second book in the Backworlds series, this one is just as satisfying as the first book and I look forward to the scheduled third book. Ms. Pax please do not stop at a trilogy.
Goodreads - Maria Violante
Stopover at the Backworld’s Edge is a great read. There’s plenty of action, beautiful imagery (and I’ve consistently appreciated M. Pax’s ability to create a succint, somehow perfect metaphor), engaging characters, and just a touch of romance. It’s consistently suprising, with quite a few twists and turns, and a number of rewards for anyone that’s read the first book. I was swept up quickly and read it straight till the end.
