Proxima (A Proxima Novel)

<b>€œStephen Baxter has been heralded, with some merit, as Arthur C. Clarke€s literary heir, and <i>Proxima</i> certainly reinforces this accolade in spades.€</b>€"<i>Concatenation</i><br><br>Mankind€s future in this galaxy could be all but infinite.<br><br>There are hundreds of billions of red dwarf stars, lasting trillions of years€"and their planets can be habitable for humans. Such is the world of Proxima Centauri. And its promise could mean the never-ending existence of humanity.<br><br>But first it must be colonized, and no one wants to be a settler. There is no glamor that accompanies it, nor is there the ease of becoming a citizen of an already-tamed world. There is only hardship...loneliness...emptiness, even as war brews in the solar system.<br><br>But that€s where Yuri comes in. Because sometimes exploration isn€t voluntary. It must be coerced.
