Beschreibung
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."
