Blast off to the frontier of space with a masterful tale of interstellar survival and human determination.
In Farmer in the Sky, Grand Master of Science Fiction Robert A. Heinlein delivers a gripping, realistic narrative about the colonization of the stars. Facing a severely overpopulated Earth, young Bill Lermer and his family embark on a perilous, one-way voyage to Jupiter's moon, Ganymede.
What awaits them is a barren, frozen world in the agonizingly slow process of being terraformed. To survive, Bill must learn to create agricultural soil out of raw, dead rock and brave the unpredictable elements of a hostile alien environment.
