Tintian and the Mysterious Meteor

● "A meteor almost destroyed New Charleroi Space Station... but is it a meteor at all? Now it's a race between two starships trying to reach the mysterious object blitzing through our solar system. But they're racing each other and the clock, since before long the object will be beyond the reach of human exploration. Plus, the sneaky Venus Bank that's funding the competitors will stop at nothing to capture it themselves... does plucky reporter Leigh Tintian, her best friend Agnes Millesabord, her robot companion SN0-EE, and the crew of the Prosperous have the guts, intelligence, and luck to reach their destination first? In order to do so, they'll have to survive suicidal zealots, outsmart interplanetary fuel companies, and fling themselves into the dark nothing of space... quite literally!" ― quoted from this book's Amazon product page as of 2025-05-22
