Void Station One

Bag om Void Station One

A man resolves to commit suicide by throwing his spacecraft into a black hole. Simon Cole is a salvager operating out of Marsport, mankind's colony on the red planet. He travels the black road between planets and stars, retrieving material from distant abandoned space stations before they drift beyond man's reach. Alone and unfulfilled, and in a future world which offers great technological innovation but allows too many individuals to be crushed under the gears, Cole resolves to commit suicide. And now he has his chance: his latest mission is to salvage from a void station before it passes the event horizon of a black hole. With its everyman protagonist struggling to find his place in a society that has become literally unmoored from humanity's roots, Void Station One deals with powerful themes of suicide, perception and mankind's place in the universe. A universe which seems to end at an open door...
