![]() The technical detail is amazing, everything from the impact of living on planets with differing gravities to how life on board a spaceship might actually be. The idea of an all-action hard sci-fi is not a familiar one, but this book pulls that off incredibly well. Intrigue, infighting, cover-ups and betrayals litter the pages as much as techno-concepts and incredibly believable hard sci-fi developments. Katryna Roja is facing a political fight over nothing less than the future direction of humanity. Meanwhile, back ‘home’ things are not any less tense. The commander, Jephora Cochrane, faces some impossible decisions and makes an impossible discovery. Their ship is nearly pulled apart, trapped in a gravity field unable to escape. The crew of the Jakob Waltz find themselves facing a sudden existential crisis in the middle of what should have been a leisurely and routine ice collecting mission. A stonking, action-packed, hard sci-fi, adventure and political thriller ![]()
