Outside Saturn

"Outside Saturn" by Robert E. Gilbert is a sci-fi story set far in the future, where humans travel to Saturn's rings, and the plot is thick with danger and ethical questions. After Henry's so-called friends leave him stranded in space, a weathered ice-sweeper named Ranjit saves him, showing him the tough realities of living around Saturn. The stakes rise when Joachim and Morna appear, standing for the Society for the Preservation of the Rings of Saturn, bringing up tough questions about whether it's right to take resources from the planet. When criminals Vicenzo and Aziz show up, things get messy; the story becomes a fight for survival as Henry has to choose sides, face his past, and try to make up for what he's done. The author shares a tale about what happens when people are greedy and how important it is to put others first, especially when things are at their worst.
