**THURSDAY, MAY 28, 2026 – THURSDAY READING PUSH**
Good morning, everyone!
We’re deep into spring, and it’s a perfect time to pick up a book that actually takes you somewhere.
*The Sisyphus Project* continues to earn strong praise from readers who enjoy smart, grounded hard sci-fi with real stakes.
Recent reader highlights:
- “The engineering details feel authentic, the stakes feel real, and the world-building is so immersive I kept looking up expecting red Martian dust on my couch.” (Barnes & Noble, 5★)
- “The gravity-drive tech and anomaly sequences are handled with real scientific care. This is the kind of hard sci-fi that makes you think long after you finish.” (Goodreads, 5★)
- “Smart, tense, and disturbingly plausible. One of the best near-future thrillers I’ve read in years.” (Recent 5★ review)
If you’ve been thinking about starting the book, today is a great day.
