CRITICAL MASS - DANIEL SUAREZ GEBUNDEN

In New York Times bestselling author Daniel Suarez's latest space-tech thriller  a group of
pioneering astropreneurs must overcome never-before-attempted engineering challenges to rescue
colleagues stranded at a distant asteroid—kicking off a new space race in which Earth's climate
crisis could well hang in the balance.      When unforeseen circumstances during an innovative
— and unsanctioned — commercial asteroid-mining mission leave two crew members stranded  those
who make it back must engineer a rescue  all while navigating a shifting web of global
political alliances and renewed Cold War tensions. With Earth governments consumed by the
ravages of climate change and unable to take the risks necessary to make rapid progress in
space  the crew must build their own nextgen spacecraft capable of mounting a rescue in time
for the asteroid's next swing by Earth.     In the process they'll need to establish the first
spin-gravity station in deep space  the first orbiting solar power satellite and refinery  and
historic infrastructure on the moon's surface — all of which could alleviate a deepening
ecological  political  and economic crisis back on Earth  and prove that space-based industry
is not only profitable   but possibly humanity's best hope for a livable  peaceful future.
