Homeward is the third part of a science fiction saga set in an interstellar world of the far future where spacer crews live and trade between the stars. The crew of the Willow has been reunited, they have a new ship, the Salix, and a foothold in Tarrasade. Allies are emerging but enemies are still lying in wait. Is neutralising a key member of Jaxs team a crippling blow? Will Jax resolve his conflicted feelings about Rae? Are Ean and Kips futures compatible with Jaxs? Most crucially, can Jax risk accepting his uncles gift?
Homeward carries on the story begun in Cast Adrift and continued in Foothold.
