Continuing the grand sweep of alternate history laid out in The
Calculating Stars, The Fated Sky looks forward to 1961, when
mankind is well-established on the moon and looking forward to its
next step: journeying to, and eventually colonising, Mars. Of
course the noted Lady Astronaut Elma York would like to go, but
could the International Aerospace Coalition ever stand the thought
of putting a woman on such a potentially dangerous mission? Could
Elma knowingly take the place of other astronauts who have been
overlooked because of their race? And could she really leave behind
her husband and the chance to start a family? This gripping look at
the real conflicts behind a fantastical space race will put a new
spin on our visions of what might have been.
