- Final orbit / by Hadfield, Chris,1959-author.;
"A pulse-pounding new thriller from the #1 bestselling author and astronaut Chris Hadfield, Final Orbit lifts off as the joint Apollo-Soyuz mission--meant to ease Cold War tensions--launches. But a new player has entered the space race, and all bets are now off as to who will win. 1975. A new Apollo mission launches into orbit, on course to dock with a Russian Soyuz craft. Three NASA astronauts and three cosmonauts will join forces to celebrate a new dawn of Soviet-American cooperation. But a third power is rising in the race to dominate Space. As NASA Flight Controller Kaz Zemeckis listens in on the mission from Earth, three of the six astronauts are killed in a depressurisation accident. And from a remote location in east Asia, a capsule secretly launches with China's first astronaut aboard, purpose unknown. A thriller that packs in all of the historical detail, political intrigue and pure rush that made Chris Hadfield's first two novels in the Apollo Murders Series runaway bestsellers, Final Orbit takes us back to Space--and brings to life Tsien Hsue-Shen: a real, Chinese-born, American-trained genius in rocketry who was arrested during the McCarthy witchhunts, deported after five years of house arrest ... and became the father of China's nuclear and space programs."--- Subjects: Thrillers (Fiction); Historical fiction.; Spy fiction.; Novels.; Apollo Soyuz Test Project; United States.

- The sisters Sputnik : a novel / by Favro, Terri,author.;
An odyssey wrapped in a love story, set in a near-future of artificial people. The Sisters Sputnik are a time-traveling trio of storytellers-for-hire who are much in demand throughout the multiverse of 2,052 alternate worlds. Each world was created by the detonation of a nuclear bomb in Earth Standard Time, home of the Sisters' leader, aging comic book creator Debbie Reynolds Biondi, her 20-something apprentice Unicorn Girl, and their pop culture--loving AI, Cassandra. Tales of Earth Standard Time-That-Was, from World Wars to the space race to Hollywood celebrities, have turned the Sisters into storytelling rock stars. In a distant reality where books and music have disappeared, Debbie finds herself in bed with an old Earth Standard Time lover who begs her to tell him a story. Over one long, eventful night, she spins the epic of the Sisters' adventures in alternate realities, starting with the theft of a book of evil comic strips in a post-pandemic Toronto full of ghost kitchens and robot-worshipping lost children known as junksters, to a disco-era purgatory where synthetic people are sending humans into the past through a reverse-engineered Statue of Liberty, to a version of the 1950s where the Sisters meet a rising star named Frank Sinatra and his girlfriend, the once-and-future Queen of England.- Subjects: Science fiction.; Novels.; Multiverse; Storytellers; Time travel;
