Description
No novelist is more qualified to write about the wonders and dangers of space than Edward Gibson. As a Skylab astronaut, he spent more time in space than any other American. Now he has combined that experience with an extraordinary gift for storytelling to create an unforgettable near-future thriller.Reach is the story of Commander Jake Ryder and the Wayfarer 2, a deep-space probe sent out to determine the fate of its sister ship, turned suddenly and mysteriously silent. It is a heart-stopping account of uncommon courage and resolve in the face of awesome and destructive forces at the limits of human understanding.
Like no novel of its kind ever written, Reach takes you into the cockpit and into deep space, coming alive with the kind of detail that can only be provided by one who has ventured where few have gone. It is a breathtaking experience.
