Into the Back of the Begone is the riveting sequel to, A Matter of Potential: Quinn Takamori continues to survive the adventure that has become his life. Nothing previous could have prepared him for the two-edged sword that is Potential, the stronger the song the more lethal it is if left untrained; and Quinn and the other First Five lose their teacher far too soon. T’rslan passes away before he can witness what his casting has reaped by summoning the first wave of human Potentials to SS-36. Possessing the strongest Potential of his little group, Quinn was forced to step in and assume the temporary role of Teacher until a proper one can arrive. Boardperson Ruby Schick is one of those newling Potentials among the humans that had felt T’rslan’s powerful psychic call, and is there when the human race is admitted to the Confederation of Sapient Species.
Quinn continues to accumulate successes including overcoming his own self-destructive behavior and winning the grudging respect of Beta Colony-7’s Board of Governors. It is then that he turns the full strength of his incredible Potential on a task that could very well make him the most hated man in the universe.
