When disasters strike ships in space, only three ships stand ready to answer the call in in our solar system. On board Space Rescue One are two dedicated teams willing to put their lives on the line to save the lives of others. However, Rescue Team One has a problem in the person of Richard Saber, whose anti-social behavior and drinking threatens to disrupt the team and possibly put their lives needlessly at risk. Treating Richard as another victim crying to be saved, his team buddies pull together to break through his walls of isolation in discovering the reason while the universe around them disintegrates into civil war when the colonies on Mars and Venus declare their independence. There's seems to be no possible way for three ships to rescue so many, but unknown to everyone Richard holds the key to ending the war. Even so, disaster still strikes out at the team in a form that will etch itself into space history! Boson Books also offers The Rust Bucket Universe series by Atk. Butterfly.

Embark on a riveting interstellar journey with "Into the Abyss: A Space Odyssey." Ian, a seasoned crew member, finds himself thrust into the heart of an unexpected emergency when the Captain urgently summons him. As the spaceship hurtles through the cold vacuum of space, mysteries unfold, and the crew is faced with an enigmatic rescue mission. Join Ian as he navigates the vast corridors of the spacecraft, equipped with gravitational panels that defy the disorienting challenges of early simulations. The control room becomes a hive of activity, with holographic maps and murmured discussions shaping the fate of the crew. Captain Adam's stern voice pierces the tension as he reveals the gravity of the situation—an incident on the ISS 14, casualties, and lost contact with Earth. The crew, originally bound for a routine mining operation, now finds themselves at the forefront of a life-saving mission. Feel the hum of the ship beneath your feet as it gains speed, hurtling towards the distant stars. The view outside, adorned with countless celestial bodies, serves as a poignant reminder of humanity's insignificance in the vastness of space. As the crew approaches the ISS 14, the plot thickens. Unfolding before your eyes is a cinematic spectacle—a spacewalk, an open airlock, and an unsettling absence of life signs. The crew's bewilderment intensifies, setting the stage for a high-stakes journey into the unknown. "Into the Abyss" offers a gripping narrative that transcends the boundaries of Earth, blending moments of claustrophobia with the awe-inspiring beauty of the cosmos. Will Ian and his crew unravel the mysteries surrounding the ISS 14, or will they be consumed by the unforgiving darkness of space? Prepare for an immersive experience that combines suspense, adventure, and the unexplored wonders of the universe.

This new, basic text details the hazards of confined spaces, describes ways to control those hazards, then presents a simple method of conducting a confined space rescue operation. The text assumes that skill levels and types of equipment available to rescuers may vary, but recognizes that a common thread runs through all emergency confined space operations. The authors, two experienced rescue professionals, identify that thread and use it to build a nine-step model that simplifies confined space rescues and offers standard operating procedures and checklists. The model is applicable to both well-equipped, sophisticated rescue teams as well as those with limited equipment and basic skills. Students and instructors can use the information to examine confined spaces in their community and determine how their skills and equipment would work in potential rescue situations.
