The Spare Man

Autor Mary Robinette Kowal
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 oct 2022
Tesla Crane, a brilliant inventor and an heiress, is on her honeymoon on an interplanetary space liner, cruising between the Moon and Mars. She's travelling incognito and is reveling in her anonymity. Then someone is murdered and the festering chowderheads who run security have the audacity to arrest her spouse.

Armed with banter, martinis and her small service dog, Tesla is determined to solve the crime so that the newlyweds can get back to canoodling and keep the real killer from striking again.

Recenzii

In The Calculating Stars, Mary Robinette Kowal imagines an alternate history of spaceflight that reminds me of everything I loved about Hidden Figures.”? Cady Coleman, Astronaut
"The Calculating Stars is a wonderful, scientifically accurate view of what might have been. Kowal masters both science and historical accuracy in this alternate history adventure." -- Andy Weir, author of The Martian
"Kowal's book was revelatory for me, because here is a version of history where men eventually, finally, listen to women." --Tor.com
“This is what NASA never had, a heroine with attitude.” -- The Wall Street Journal
"A fine balance of integrating historical accuracy--including mid-twentieth-century sexism, racism, and technology--with speculative storytelling."-- Booklist
"Tantalizing." -- Locus
"Readers will thrill to the story of this "lady astronaut" and eagerly anticipate the promised sequels."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"An engrossing alternate history with a unique point of view, The Fated Sky dramatically demonstrates the technical problems with going to Mars--but the technical problems are the not the only ones. Never backing down from vital issues of race and gender, The Fated Sky confronts the human issues of space travel in a United States made increasingly desperate by a massive meteor strike. Plausible, convincing, and ultimately moving."--Nancy Kress, author of the Hugo Award-winning Yesterday's Kin
"The Lady Astronaut series might be set in an alternate past, but they're cutting-edge SF novels that speak volumes about the present."-- The Verge
“A vibrant space mystery” – Publishers Weekly
