Summary
The company that Arya Vaii and Gunnar Schmidt founded to commercially develop Arya's time-stopping discovery is making money hand over fist.
Currently, their profits come from their use of the phenomenal physical properties of a time-stopped segment of space-time to build rockets. But now, they’re building their space tower. Taking off at a 30-degree angle from Eastern Virginia, it’s 200 kilometers long and 100 kilometers high. By placing the interior of their spacecraft - and its passengers - in stasis, they can accelerate launches at 15 gravities, reaching orbital speeds before the craft leaves the rail. This lets them put payloads in orbit for a thousand times lower cost than a rocket.
The world, and some unscrupulous people, are turning to Kaem and his company to further our exploitation of orbital space.

Original story
Couldn’t stop listening, really interesting story. Read all 5 books in a week. New ideas around time, not what I expected but enjoyed it just the same.

Riveting and compelling
I came across these books by chance and when I sampled the story I was immediately taken by the subject and ideas that conjure in the mind. Laurence has written a wonderful story with everything you would expect of a classic.
