My review:?????
Spoilers ahead, as this is book 2 in the Lady Astronaut series!
The Fated Sky by Mary Robinette Kowal starts in 1961. The Moon colony has been established, and so now it’s time to travel to Mars, to look to establish a colony there. Not everyone is thrilled at the prospective of people leaving the Earth, and so have established themselves as Earth First.
Elma wants to go to Mars. She’s conquered becoming an astronaut, even one who takes the occasional Miltown, but now she’s growing board.
Another amazing book, with the right amount of pace, scene setting, maths, and rocket science. It’s such an interesting look into traveling to space at this time, and the aspirations of so many.
The Fated Sky by Mary Robinette Kowal was published on 21st August 2018, and is available to buy from Amazon, Waterstones and Bookshop.org.
