Review:
"An absorbing and wonderfully detailed account" (Entertainment Weekly)
"His style is down-to-earth, yet he takes exhilarating leaps page after page. The narrative is lively and informed, striking a fine balance between "the epic and the everyday" in space exploration, from mundane issues such as weightless bowel movements to terrifying threats such as wounds from space-trash fragments that could end in a horrifying death" (USA Today)
"As good an account as you are likely to find of what it's like to commute to work a few hundred miles above the Earth... Chris Jones will have you on the edge of your seat" (The Globe and Mail)
