Description - Ascent by Jed Mercurio
Yefgenii Yeremin is a flyer and he is a phantom. In the Korean War he shoots down more American jets than any other pilot in history and is dubbed 'Ivan the Terrible'. But the Soviet Union's involvement in the war must be kept secret, so he remains unknown. Exiled to an Arctic base, he becomes a spectator to the arena of Cold War rivalry: space. Yefgenii longs to challenge America's finest aviators once again...until the day in 1964, when a man arrives from Moscow. The Space Committee needs a volunteer. Five years later, Yefgenii Yeremin sets off on the greatest mission of all, in a ship named VOSKHODYENIYE. His destination: the Moon. This time, for certain, he will write his name into the history books...
