The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planetย meetsย The 100ย in this unforgettable debut by a brilliant new voice.
A century ago, scientists theorised that a habitable planet existed in a nearby solar system. Today, ten astronauts will leave a dying Earth to find it. Four are decorated veterans of the 20th centuryโs space-race. And six are teenagers, graduates of the exclusive Dalton Academy, whoโve been in training for this mission for most of their lives.
It will take the team twenty-three years to reach Terra-Two. Twenty-three years spent in close quarters. Twenty-three years with no one to rely on but each other. Twenty-three years with no rescue possible, should something go wrong. And something always goes wrong.
Don't miss one ofย Cosmopolitansย books by people of colour to get excited about in 2019, called 'a tightly wound epic' that 'will change your heart' by Christian Kiefer, author ofย Phantoms.
WHY READERS DREAM OF TERRA-TWO . . .
'An ambitious 500-page coming-of-ageย blockbusterย . . .Oh is excellent at portraying theย aching sense of lossย on a one-way trip to the stars'ย Guardian
'Aย tightly wound,ย emotional epicย that asks important questions about humanity, goodness, belief, technology, love, friendship, and duty.
