Recovering Apollo 8 (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In a world where Apollo 8 veered tragically off course, the event sent the astronauts, and the space program, hurtling into space, lost and helpless. The tragedy so affected eight-year-old Richard Johansenn that he dedicates his life-and the fortune he amasses along the way-to recovering the capsule. But Richard's quest proves more complicated than a simple recovery mission, causing him to question the meaning of life, the meaning of death and the heroisms in between.

"This is a thoughtful, introspective piece that speaks to themes of hope, doubt, perseverance, and obsession."

-Tangent Online

"There is very little of this sort of science fiction published nowadays-the real thing, the exploration of Earth's solar system, without the slightest concession to the fantastic. Rusch celebrates the spirit of exploration, the adventure into the great unknown. … this tribute to humanity's first ventures into space is Recommended."

-The Internet Review of Science Fiction

". . . this is one of the most exciting short story collections I've read in years, perhaps ever."
