I will easily admit this - I am a fan. I think reading this meant more since I read Chris Hatfield's book earlier this year. This is a book about the Canadian and American space agencies working together to help increase their public awareness. The lead characters of this book are working to move the percentage of folks that would rather go for "lunch" than watch a "launch". You can't help but reflect about what Hatfield was able to do for space exploration with just how he was on the space station. I think it has been since 1986 since I cared that much about what was happening (or for that matter KNEW) about CSA/NASA.
Fallis' humour is refreshing. I really enjoy his books. I will read them as they are published and I know he will be attending one of my favourite writer's festivals this summer. Who knows, maybe I will get on a ferry and just go for a day trip. Crazier things have been known to happen. It is also a week night. As above, crazy things have been known to happen. Hmm. Maybe I will get lucky and my Aunt will still be living on the coast…
