The Chaos Core has the Spinward Fringe series to thank for its universe, but the values and motivations of the characters are often different. The same can be said for the environments they find themselves in and the interactions that take place. It's a novel where even the "good guys" are criminals, and where the bottom can fall out of any plan, no matter how short sighted or far reaching it may be.
Here's the synopsis:
Spin and her crew continue to elude their pursuers. Escaped slaves, they are hunted by law, begrudging masters, and shadow lurking hunters. It's a race to find a new ship and get out of the sector while the new crew try to find their places amongst each other. Revenge is on everyone's mind, but pursuing Captain White is an endeavour that could cost them everything. While her friends track him and ready their instruments of vengeance, Spin pursues a different kind of revenge, one that could separate him from everything he's worked for, but especially his great ship: the Cool Angel.
It's a longer book than the first in the series by quite a bit, qualifying as a short novel. According to the editor and test readers it's still fast paced, but an awful lot happens to the small group of survivors at the centre of the story. This is a book with great consequence, fun, and it explores part of the Spinward Fringe universe that the main series hasn't gone into at all but I've always wanted to get into.
If you haven't checked out Chaos Core Book 1, you can find it for free from most Ebook retailers.

The next book will be available in 2017, but first I'll be finishing Spinward Fringe Broadcast 10: Foreground.
Thank you so much for reading and buying my work. You can look forward to a couple of podcasts about the Chaos Core series before the focus moves back to the Spinward Fringe series for a while.

I was a non-reader until I found your Spinward Fringe Origins. For some reason I don't really know I just had to read that book. From that day on I have read every book you wrote and I find myself jonesing for my next fix after I finish. In the last 5 days I completed Brightwill, Dark Arts, and Trapped chaos core book 1. I do not understand what it is about your books that actually makes me want to read but I thank you for it.
