Needle is book 3 of the Inverted Frontier series. It’ll be out in less than a month.

But maybe you’re not familiar with the Inverted Frontier story world?

If that’s the case, please let me fill you in…

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 several 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. These adventurers are the first in centuries to confront the hazards of an inverted frontier as they venture back along the path of human migration.

If that sounds like your kind of story, I hope you’ll give the series a try. Start with book 1, Edges. Read the opening chapters on my website, and decide if it’s for you.

Thank you!
