Resumen del Editor
In the not-so-distant future, where humanity's reach extends into the cosmos and the sky is littered with satellites, space stations, and the beginnings of lunar colonies, the Space Traffic Control Unit (STCU) stands as the unsung guardian of Earth's orbital lanes. Captain Alex Mercer, a seasoned air traffic controller turned space traffic commander, leads his team with a mix of military precision and a deep understanding of the celestial dance above.
"Orbital Maneuvers" thrusts listeners into the heart of the STCU during a time of unprecedented crisis. A series of mysterious malfunctions and erratic satellite behaviors threaten the very fabric of global communications, hinting at a larger, more sinister plot at play. Mercer and his diverse team of specialists—brilliant strategist Nora Kim, ingenious engineer Leo Zhang, and skilled pilot Sofia Reyes—must unravel the mystery before the world is thrust into chaos.
But as they dig deeper, what they find is more alarming than mere technical glitches. Shadows of a formidable coalition emerge, operating from the dark recesses of space with an agenda that could alter the balance of power on Earth and beyond. The team's investigation leads them on a perilous journey that tests not only their technical skills and ingenuity but also their loyalty, trust, and resolve.
"Orbital Maneuvers" is a gripping tale of suspense, camaraderie, and the indomitable human spirit. With the fate of global communication and space security hanging in the balance, Mercer's team must navigate the intricate web of political intrigue, espionage, and cutting-edge technology to safeguard humanity's future in space.
This debut novel from an author with a rich background in air traffic control and aerospace brings authenticity and thrilling realism to the narrative. Dive into a world where the next frontier of air traffic control isn't just above us, but encompasses the vast expanse of space itself. "Orbital Maneuvers" is a journey of discovery, conflict, and the quest to maintain order in the boundless frontier that is our universe.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Historia
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Historia
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Historia
In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

When the Big One finally struck, it wasn't just a Big One; it was almost the Last One. The earth had been shattered almost everywhere mankind lived. Millions had died within seconds of each other. The world was in turmoil. The masses that had survived were looking for an answer to the enigmatic force that had struck the planet from deep within its core. A Special Forces Team had been sent inside the planet to discover who was behind the disaster. None returned. And now the Big One wasn't over. There were After Shocks. Many of them.

The difference between a man and a robot is not that one has a soul. The difference is that man can choose to ignore it. The Uberbots have taken over. The few human survivors remain hidden. Returning from an excursion that began before the revolution, Thomas walks through his ominously silent city until he comes face to face with his creation: the Uberbots. Captured and imprisoned, Thomas is brought before the Uberbots and given a task only he, as the creator of the Uberbots, can achieve. While keen on escaping, Thomas quickly learns the Uberbots are not easily overcome.

In a steel-and-lead-encased bunker 20 feet below the basement level of his house, a soldier waits for his final orders. On the surface, a plague ravages the planet, infecting over 90% of the populace. The bacterium burrows through the brain, destroying all signs of humanity and leaving behind little more than base, prehistoric instincts. The infected turn into hyper-aggressive predators, with an insatiable desire to kill and feed. Someday soon, the soldier will have to open the hatch to his bunker, and step out into this new wasteland, to complete his mission....

Psychologist Dr. Ophelia Bray has dedicated her life to the study and prevention of ERS—a space-based condition most famous for a case that resulted in the brutal murders of twenty-nine people. When she's assigned to a small exploration crew, she's eager to make a difference. But as they begin to establish residency on an abandoned planet, it becomes clear that crew is hiding something. While Ophelia focuses on her new role, her crewmates are far more interested in investigating the eerie, ancient planet and unraveling the mystery behind the previous colonizer's hasty departure.
