Gravity

by Andrew Linke, Otto Linke

Asha is alone and time is running out.

An unexpected solar flare has devastated the planet, plunging much of civilization into darkness and preparing the path for unanticipated powers to emerge from remote regions of the world. But all of that is irrelevant to Asha, because her crew mates are all dead and the high orbit space station in which she lives has been damaged, leaving her with no way of returning to the surface.

Gravity is the chronicle of one woman's struggle to survive and grasp her own destiny as she is swept along by powers and events beyond her control. As the inescapable pull of gravity drags her ever closer to her doom, Asha searches her memories, and the journals of a fallen crew mate, for the clue that might save her from a fiery death.

I really liked the writing, though the story left me with more questions than answers. Hence only 3 stars, because there are a lot of things just hinted at that could have been described more clearly. Maybe this would have profited from being expanded into a full novel

I don't think I'm the right person to review this book. It's a great, moving story of a woman trying to survive after catastrophe hits space station she's on. And I loved it.
