With the Artemis II voyage wrapped up, you might be seeking some more space-related adventure – and we can help with some books. Here are five titles that will keep you in orbit just a bit longer. Also this week: we review Yann Martel’s latest, Son of Nobody, and The Last Titans, a dual biography of wartime leaders Winston Churchill and Charles de Gaulle.

And Globe reader Ambrose Kirby couldn’t stop thinking about Night Terminus, a novel by Ellis Scott that unfolds in the wake of the shocking arrival of the AIDS pandemic, and follows the heartbreaking lives of those directly affected. I love hearing what you’re reading. Please send me a note with your recommendations.
