The Calculating Stars
Autor Mary Robinette Kowalen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 mai 2019
One woman. One mission. One chance to save the world.
It's 1952, and the world as we know it is gone. A meteorite has destroyed Washington DC, triggering extinction-level global warming. To save humanity, the world unites to form the International Aerospace Coalition. Its mission: to colonise first the Moon, then Mars. Elma York, World War Two pilot and mathematician, dreams of becoming an astronaut – but prejudice has kept her grounded. Now nothing – and no man – will stop her from reaching for the stars.

Anonim a dat nota:
This was such a wonderful read! The alternate history was really interesting, and I really liked Elma. Definitely a must read to those who liked The Martian.
