But maybe you’re not familiar with the story world of Inverted Frontier? Then please let me entice you…
This is a story world in which radically advanced nano- and bio-technologies have long since become an accepted part of everyday life. Indeterminate lifespans are taken for granted. Innate repair mechanisms clean up damage due to cosmic radiation. Materials can be grown at need or dissolved back into raw substrate. People can exist as physical or virtual beings. And over time, starships can evolve. People can too, though most are culturally inclined to hold on tightly to their humanity.
But molecular technologies cannot collapse the vast distances between stars or open mythical gates or wormholes to shorten the journey, and they cannot speed the flow of information, which remains limited by the speed of light.
Over the past millennia, human civilization spread from stellar system to stellar system — and then collapsed for reasons unknown to those few surviving settlements at the far reaches of the human frontier.
Inverted Frontier is the story of the recovery. It’s told through a ship’s company of explorers and scientists who leave the frontier, undertaking a voyage of re-discovery. They are the first in centuries to confront the hazards of an inverted frontier as they venture back along the path of human migration.
If you haven’t read book #1, Edges, start there! Silver completes the story arc that began with Edges.
There’s no need to wait for a third volume, because Inverted Frontier is not a trilogy. It’s an open-ended series that will continue if there is enough reader interest. I hope there will be! These books were a challenge to write, but there is so much left of the galaxy to explore.
If you’ve preordered Silver, THANK YOU!! If not, I hope you’ll get a chance to purchase it soon. Writers don’t exist without reader support. All of you have my continuing gratitude.

Just landed in my Kindle. Goes right to the top of my TBR stack where it will fight with Kristine Kathryn Rusch’s latest Diving novel for next up.

Excellent. Good to hear that it is open ended. I am sure that your military and fantasy are best of class but Vast etc are my favourite of your works.

Finished it this evening! Loved everything about it. I kind of want to draw a series of kobolds – but I’ll probably dive into Memory. I’m glad the afterword mentioned it being an additional source novel – no need to wait for a third volume indeed 🙂
