THE ONLINE BOOK CLUB "I am a major enthusiast and expert in atmospheric flight and spaceflight, so this was a true delight to read." AFAF BEN__________________________ How do you survive a nuclear attack? Fly on a helium balloon to the stratosphere. The space tourism project has taken many years of meticulous planning, the assembly of a highly trained crew, and a small fortune to embark on its groundbreaking journey into the uncharted stratosphere. As the fragile peace below shatters and nuclear war erupts, the crew of five onboard Fable Sky, the world’s largest zero-pressure helium balloon, finds themselves thrust into a perilous race against time. Will, the seasoned balloon captain and project founder, must guide the crew, drawing on all his flight experience to rally his team, uniting their diverse skills and unwavering spirit. Ariane, the skilled NASA research pilot, must bring her expertise and resourcefulness to the situation. Donavon, the ex-RAF pilot, must offer his combat experience and unyielding bravery when it matters. Peta, the fearless balloonist and intrepid adventurer, must add her audacity and survival instincts to the crew’s arsenal. And Lloyd, the mastermind behind the balloon's design, must ensure their vessel stays afloat amid the cataclysmic storm ravaging their world while dealing with his own destructive mind. Together, they must navigate unstable conditions and the ever-present threat of annihilation. With each passing second, their oxygen dwindles, heightening the urgency to safely return to the ground, which is contaminated with deadly radiation. Time becomes their greatest adversary as they realise the chances of finding shelter amid the nuclear wasteland before their precious oxygen supplies deplete, plunging them into an eternal sleep, are slim. In this high- stakes adventure, the crew must push the limits of their ingenuity, resilience, and teamwork to endure the harsh stratospheric environment and looming chaos below. Will they find refuge before their oxygen supplies run out or will they be consumed by the maelstrom of destruction? Join these brave balloonists as they embark on a breathtaking journey through the sky, defying the boundaries of possibility, while discovering the true strength of human spirit in the face of impending doom. BALLOON will leave you breathless, forever altering your perception of what lies beyond the boundaries of our known world. Read more
