Author: Robert A. Heinlein
Bill knew his destiny lay in the stars, but how was he to get there? George Lerner was shipping out for Ganymede to join the fledgling colony, and Bill wanted to go along.

Early Heinlein first published in the 50's so a bit outdated. It was an interesting read though and I did finish. I have always liked Heinlein's writing.

Excellent sci-fi book! Worthy of Mr. Heinlein' name.
Bill goes through quite a transition during the trip and his arrival on Ganymede. He learns the meaning of family and that he's a true survivor.
