NewStar One (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798986186306)

Alex Stone is nerdy and reserved, no doubt a product of having two astronaut parents and the trauma of watching his mother die in a horrible rocket explosion when he was only nine years old. Now a teenager, Alex suddenly finds himself and his father caught up in a promotional scheme by a private company to attract families with children to their space hotel on the newly built NewStar One space station. The opportunity provided by the company could give him a chance to become the first teenager in space and complete the scientific work his astronaut mother started before she died. That work has the potential to save thousands of lives...but only if space doesn't claim Alex's life first.
