FARWEST
(Book 1 of The Astralmap Chronicles)

AVAILABLE FOR THE 1ST TIME IN PAPERBACK

The Farwest mining outpost was not a place to seek fortune, or refuge, but it was a good place to go to die. That was the sole reason Derek Miller chose the site, after losing his wife and child in a violent attack by hoodlums on Mars. Little did he know that traveling to the farthest point in the mapped universe was exactly what he needed to find a reason to live again.

As foreman of the site, Derek is tasked with overseeing a motley skeleton crew of roughnecks and desperates, as they bore into the planetoid's surface, in search of the newly discovered mineral, xenoradium. Complicating matters even further, Derek is forced deal with a growing tension between the miners and the United Council Guard, the onsite military presence, as well as the UCG commanding officer, Lieutenant Wahl Jenkins; a drugged-addicted paranoiac who has been sent to the Farwest site against his will. Constantly challenged to put the needs of a Corprigovernment, hundreds of thousands of light years away, above his own crew, foreman Derek Miller fights to do what is right, and keep his people safe and alive, all the while, just trying to maintain a sliver of his own sanity.

Winding his way through the maze of drastic political changes back on Earth, which transform the site into a state of zero-tolerance martial law, as well as dealing with the impending threat of collision with an unknown object coming from deep space, Derek must find a way to save his crew, his site, and himself.

This is Farwest...
