"SETTING: Spacecraft RATING: 2.75 WHY: I'm actually surprised that I finished this. WAY too predictable. Examples: marriage in trouble - you know he's going to meet a beautiful, independent woman who is going to be attracted to him too. Space flight for 4 - 3 travelers cancel - know that something will happen to the pilot and he'll have to deal with huge emergency. Guess a certain level of brain-deadness kicked in and allowed me to keep reading."
"Really good book about the thoughts, and concerns of a man surely expecting to die in space. It is a creative mix of space technology and philosophy."
