Mission One: A Near Future First Contact Space… von Samuel Best
#MissionOne #SamuelBest Great #scifi ended quite abruptly. The ending wasn't necessarily believable. #coverlove #diverse
In Mission One, we contacted an alien artifact in orbit around Titan. In Deep Black, we found more alien funny business on Titan. Now in Samuel Best’s Last Contact, we find a big asteroid headed for Earth. If you have read the first two books, you might want to read this one just to see how the plot works out and find out whether Best manages to tie up loose ends. If you have not read the first two, don’t bother. 3 stars.
Best, Samuel. Deep Black. E-book ed, Sky City, 2019. Titan Chronicles 2.
The hero of Mission One has been returned to earth by the alien artifact. Will he have to go back to Titan? Will there be more aliens? Will missing people be found? Yes. Will the writing be better than it was in Mission one? Will the science be more accurate? No. 3 stars.

Samuel Best’s Mission One is near-future science fiction in the tradition of Robert Heinlein and Arthur C. Clarke. The book’s character drama also owes a debt to the grand tour series by Ben Bova. An entrepreneur unable to make a profit with the first generation of robot mining in the asteroid belt puts his money behind a manned mission to Titan, where he hopes to build a space station to oversee a mining operation on Titan itself. He has a competitor who may get there first and a vice president who wants to displace him. Since the book is billed as a first-contact story, it is not much of a spoiler to say there is also an alien artifact in orbit around Titan. The character drama is ramped up by a long-distance romance between the mission’s pilot and his capcom. Is Best as good a writer as the grandmasters who defined the genre? No. But I kept turning the pages on this one and will read the next volume in the trilogy. 3.5 stars.… (mehr)
