Voyagers Books In Order

Publication order of voyagers books.

The American science-fiction author of countless novels, Ben Bova is almost an institution now in his own right, having produced a vast and highly expansive backlog of work over the entire course of his career overall, with a whole host of different novels under his belt, with him having produced a whole score of different titles spanning a range of genres coming into it as well. These include fantasy and science-fiction, as he has become well known for having a vast imagination, as the scope of his vision is almost unmatched, with him becoming respected by both his many peers and contemporaries alike over the years. This has also transferred into large numbers of sales too, as he has been able to garner readers from all over the world, all eagerly awaiting each installment with eagerness and anticipation. Knowing and understanding the format of the genre both inside and out, he manages to get to the heart of the subject matter quite unlike any other. Teaching science-fiction as a subject at university level as well, he knows the topic both inside and out, right down to the last final fundamental details. This allows him to write with confidence and wit, writing about the subjects he wants to, putting forwards the ideas he wants in a clear and legible style. With a highly visual sense too, he has also taught film previously, as Hollywood has shown an interest in his work too, as he has also written for the television too. Speaking for outlets such as NPR too, he has really made a name for himself as a spokesperson for his craft too, allowing him to become a prominent name and brand throughout the industry. Crafting quality well written stories alongside expertly drawn characters who come alive off of the page, he really manages to make the most of each of his stories. It is also his series that really manage to draw the readers in too, as they take the reader essentially on a journey, with many of his franchises spanning all across space. Following the lead character of one Keith Stoner, it sees him as he receives an alien signal for the first time, putting everything on the line to make sense of it. This leads him on a journey, as the world around him changes forever, with nothing ever remaining the same as he thought he knew it.

Running for a total of four novels, this would start out in 1981, with each subsequent release being published intermittently over the years, as the final title would come out in 2009. Originally the first novel, ‘Voyagers’, would come out in 1981, followed by ‘The Alien Within’ in 1986, ‘Star Brothers’ in 1990, and ‘The Return’ in 2009. The last book would also make up the nineteenth title in the ‘The Grand Tour’ series as well, making it a highly comprehensive series incorporating a whole range of different elements into it. With these books retaining a timeless quality, they will stand the test of time for many years to still come yet.

Published through the Tor Books publishing label, this was originally released in 1981 on the the 15th of August to much acclaim. Generating a lot of publicity upon its initial release, it would manage to set the series up as a whole, allowing it to bring the characters to life, giving them all a sense of purpose and momentum. With the lead character of Keith Stoner himself being introduced for the first time too, it gives the reader a clear idea of what’s to come too.

This would be the first book in the Voyagers series, and it would, therefore, provide a lot of the grand ideas and concepts that Bova would include over the following series. The characters are also realistically portrayed too, allowing the reader to relate to them and their motivations on a far more personal level. In regards to the world itself, it would also be fully realized, with many of the locations becoming a lot more prominent as the story progresses.

Previously an astronaut now turned physicist, Keith Stoner has picked up some signals from space and he is certain that they’re not random. The signal itself is heading straight for earth, as it appears that he could potentially be the first human-being in history to confront this particular enigma. One problem is, though, that he may have to put everything on the line, even potentially giving up the one he loves most. Will he manage it? Can he give up everything? Who are the voyagers?

The Alien Within

Brought out through the Tor Books publishing label once more, this would continue directly on from the last one, taking the series forwards in the process. Released in 1986, it would essentially provide the next chapter for Keith Stoner, as it picks up from where the previous one left off. It would also include a great deal of character development too, something which Bova has clearly become confident with now.

Eighteen years previously Keith Stoner had fallen into suspended animation whilst detailing an alien craft on a joint US-USSR mission to understand the ship. During this time Jo Camerata, the once ambitious young female student who once loved Stoner passionately, is now the head of Vanguard Industries, as she has full control of the craft, technology and Stoner along with it. The only problem is, though, that Stoner has brought something back with him living in his brain, and it appears that this alien keeping him alive wants to do some exploring through him. Can Stoner discover the truth before it’s too late? Where did this alien come from? What will be discovered from the alien within?

The Voyagers Series

With both action and suspense, this is a series that makes the most of its genre and its premise, as it really brings its subject matter to life, really giving the reader something to invest themselves in. Using elements of mystery at the center of its premise, it allows its stories to come alive through it well realized sense of character, as the protagonists each resonate with the reader. A true master of his craft, this is a series that really understands what its about, and is a definite must for any fans of the genre, marking it as a classic for a long time to follow.

From the publisher, from the author, about the author.

The mother of three children, Ashayana presently divides her time between family, artwork and the continuing work with the Sirian/Arcturian Council and the Guardian Alliance. Ashayana believes that knowledge is our empowerment as humanity faces an unknown future, and wisdom is the appropriate application of that knowledge. Secrecy denies us the knowledge we will need as a people to take effective action. The Voyagers Project seeks to help others realize the importance of exploring these unknown aspects of reality so that our race may rise to the occasion to work in brotherhood toward an enlightened comprehension.

Voyagers: 8 Similar Sci-Fi Thriller Movies You Should Watch

Helmed by Neil Burger, the distinct tinge of sci-fi flavor in ‘Voyagers’ makes it an exemplary candidate for a memorable film that’s assured to keep you on the edge of your seats. The 2021 film, set in a distant future, takes its audience on an enthralling sci-fi ride as it explores social structures, hierarchy, and adolescence aboard a multi-generational expedition. As humanity’s future dwindles through climate change and drought, a last resort mission is launched to colonize a distant Earth-like planet. In it, a group of young individuals genetically engineered with enhanced intelligence embark on this expedition. They eventually discover that they’re being drugged to suppress their emotional impulses. They ignore the mission’s rules and begin to explore their most primitive urges. As a result, chaos ensues on the ship and its crew are consumed by juvenile desires, lust, and the hunger for power.

While it’s safe to say it draws numerous tropes from the genre, its compelling stage and brilliant performances by a stellar cast comprising Colin Farrell, Tye Sheridan, and Lily-Rose Depp, set it apart. We managed to put together a list of films that’s set up to keep you on the same vibe train. If you enjoyed the intensity and setting of the space-themed adventure, here are our top picks for movies like ‘Voyagers’ that you might want to watch after.

8. Life (2017)

Daniel Espinosa’s ‘ Life ’ takes you onboard the International Space Station, where a multinational crew of astronauts is tasked with the retrieval of a research pod that’s on its way back from Mars. The crew discovers an alien life-form inside and eventually realizes it isn’t as docile as once perceived. Starring renowned names such as Jake Gyllenhaal, Ryan Reynolds, and Rebecca Ferguson, the 2017 film shares similarities to the setting of ‘Voyagers’ where both tell stories of a crew primarily aboard a vessel in space. Like ‘Voyagers,’ all of humanity’s fate lies in the hands of the crew and the decisions they make onboard their spacecraft. The film will undoubtedly give you the same jolt of thrill.

7. Europa Report (2013)

Continuing on the themes of space expeditions and discoveries, the narrative and setting of ‘Europa Report’ fittingly draws parallels with ‘Voyagers.’ Set in the contemporary world, Sebastián Cordero’s ‘Europa Report’ brings its viewers along on a journey to Jupiter’s moon with a crew of the best astronauts from around the world on a mission in search of life. As they venture deeper, the astronauts discover never-before-seen secrets about Jupiter’s moon.

‘Europa Report,’ much like most of the entries on this list, is set primarily aboard a spacecraft. It shares similarities with ‘Voyagers’ on the front of the setting, as this plays a pivotal role in the way the story is told. This film also adds insights into human interactions and crew differences, which adds another dimension of resemblance to ‘Voyagers.’ This sci-fi thriller is a tailor-made experience for every fan of the genre.

6. Sunshine (2007)

‘Sunshine’ brings about a unique hue to world-ending scenarios, where a crew of astronauts is tasked with the responsibility of reigniting the dying sun. As the film progresses, mishaps and accidents occur, putting the crew at fatal risk. Directed by Danny Boyle and starring big names, such as Cillian Murphy, Rose Byrne, Michelle Yeoh, Chris Evans, and Japanese veteran actor Hiroyuki Sanada, the setting and environmental Armageddon of ‘Voyagers’ are reprised in this film. Much to the enjoyment of every sci-fi/thriller enthusiast, this film is assured to give them the same thrill.

5. High Life (2018)

‘High Life,’ starring Robert Pattinson, is a sci-fi film that features plenty of absurd horror elements that’ll satisfy any genre aficionado’s trope-hungry eyes. The film revolves around a group of prisoners who are used as Guinea pigs in various experiments onboard a spacecraft deep in space. The sole survivor is tasked with the duty of saving his daughter and himself.

‘High Life’ shares a few similarities with ‘Voyagers,’ where both movies are set in deep space and in spacecraft with little to no chance of escape. Apart from this, ‘High Life’ echoes features of primitive human urges, that are equally demonstrated in ‘Voyager’. A multi-generational factor, albeit only minimal in ‘High Life,’ is additionally present. Both films embody the same space-thriller tropes seen within the genre. If you’re looking for something darker and unsettling after ‘Voyagers,’ you should add ‘High Life’ to your list.

4. Approaching The Unknown (2016)

‘Approaching The Unknown’ might sound like a clichéd title for a sci-fi thriller movie, but it checks all the right boxes when selecting a good watch from the genre. Mark Elijah Rosenberg film revolves around humanity’s pursuit to colonize Mars, as they send their very first human on a one-way journey to the red planet. The journey is treacherous and filled with hurdles, but what makes it worse is that it is a solo mission.

While the setting and somewhat the premise remain similar to ‘Voyagers,’ what makes this a good watch after is its completely opposite social presence. The solo-mission element brings an entirely different perspective to the overcrowded vessels the rest of this list provides. While retaining many of the genre’s tropes, such as its setting and intention, ‘Approaching The Unknown’ would make for an honestly good ‘post-Voyager’ recommendation.

3. I.S.S. (2023)

Much like the first entry on this list, this film is completely set onboard the titular space vessel. As a new entry of personnel is introduced onboard the ISS, the crew is unaware of the raging worldwide feud that’s taking place between the US and Russia on the ground. The crew, divided by nationality, are ordered an ultimatum by their respective officials on the ground to take over the station at any cost.

Directed by Gabriela Cowperthwaite, ISS is on this list is because of its social aspects that are similar to ‘Voyagers,’ along with its familiarly shared setting aboard a space vessel. The moral dilemma of sticking to orders or giving oneself the freedom to choose drives movies such as ‘ISS’ and ‘Voyagers.’ Just like the latter, this movie is bound to keep you on the edge of your seat.

2. Aniara (2018)

Based on the epic science fiction poem written by Harry Martinson of the same name, the Swedish film ‘Aniara’ goes much further into community building onboard a spacecraft than ‘Voyagers’ does, but some of its key concepts are uncanny. Set in a dystopian future where Earth isn’t as habitable as it once used to be, ‘Aniara’ takes its audience through a spiraling tale of a mass exodus in search of a new world to inhabit.

On this journey, humanity loses itself, as one spacecraft drifts off course into the abyss of space. While ‘Aniara’ explores themes that wouldn’t be all that suitable for a bunch of teenagers, like it is on ‘Voyagers,’ similarities between the two can easily be spotted. Directed by Swedish duo Hugo Lilja and Pella Kågerman, the theme, setting, community building, and end-of-the-world crisis, make this sci-fi thriller an adequate recommendation to watch after ‘Voyagers’.

1. Stowaway (2021)

Another film that shares acute similarities with ‘Voyagers’ is Joe Penna’s ‘ Stowaway .’ A crew of astronauts on a 2-year expedition faces a moral dilemma after they discover a stowaway who has, unknowingly, stayed onboard the spacecraft through its launch. Unable to return and equipped with resources adequate for only the known crew, they are forced to confront the situation with difficult choices.

Starring Anna Kendrick, Toni Colette, and Daniel Dae Kim, much of the film takes place within the confines of the spacecraft, similar to the setting of ‘Voyagers.’ The added factor of its moral conundrum and interpersonal relationships further validates this film, if you’re looking for something to watch after ‘Voyagers.’ Much like the rest of the entries on this list, this one, too, is bound to give you the same thrills.
