Sci-Fi Novel 'Zero-G' Soars to Edge of Space

Once the rig got high up in the sky, an audio recording of Boffard reading the prologue and the first chapter began to play loudly. Boffard's crew documented the process in an extended video, as well as through tweets as it all happened. Fittingly for "Zero-G" (Orbit, 2016) — the sequel to Boffard's first novel, "Tracer" (Orbit, 2015) — both the liftoff and the recovery proved more of an adventure than the team had anticipated.
