Ordeal in Space is a gripping tale that marks the centenary of Robert A Heinlein's birth. The story follows deeply traumatized astronaut William Cole, who is back on Earth recuperating from a terrible accident. After being jettisoned into outer space, he is left with a debilitating fear of falling.

As he faces the prospect of never returning to a job he loves, William struggles to adapt to life as a civilian. This emotional journey explores themes of fear, resilience, and the challenges of reintegration.

I first read Robert Heinlein as a teenager. I am now 75 years old. Heinlein's works still are filled with characters with that ring true. Ordeal in Space is a pleasure to read. It is about how a Spaceman grounded by a fear of heights from an incidence in space overcomes it and regains his self confidence.

Not the typical story. Surprise ending.
