In 2010, Orbinaut JonnyBGoode posted the following comment in the thread “What are you reading?”: I'm reading Two Years Before the Mast, by Richard Henry Dana. A sci-fi adaptation of this book would be fascinating.
It only took fourteen years, and I’m happy to grant JonnyBGoode’s wish. I (Mike Blackstone) have just published “Two Years at the Hot End”, an adaptation set in the not-too-distant future, featuring semi-realistic tech in the Solar System. I dedicated it to “the fine community forum of the Orbiter Space Flight Simulator”.
The book is available for purchase on Amazon in paperback or ebook format. However, I will gladly send a download link for the ebook version to any Orbinaut who sends me a direct message.
