Sci-Fi Adventure Written by Former Nuclear Power Researcher Claudia K Leber Set for Exhibit at Frankfurt Book Fair 2025

One of the defining traits of science fiction is how its share of new ideas is often within proximity of the latest breakthroughs. And for retired researcher Claudia K Leber, that is certainly true.

Leber is the author of “Hydrogen Runner,” a science fiction adventure that draws from her own knowledge and experience in nuclear energy research. Having graduated with a B.A. in Chemistry from the University of California in Irvine, she had gone on to apply her expertise at the university’s own nuclear research reactor.

Along with some additional studies in geology, much of her experience would eventually inspire the ideas in her novel, which is set in the distant future. In “Hydrogen Runner,” humanity on Earth appears to have achieved peak civilization when nuclear fusion kicks off an energy revolution. Rather than harmful greenhouse gases, everything now relies on simple hydrogen for fuel.

Still, out in the vastness of space, pockets of a more uncivilized humanity have formed. Opportunistic conglomerates, mercenaries, and space pirates are on the lookout for rich deposits of hydrogen so that this new energy age stays topped up.

Leber is very much excited to share the vision she had been writing “Hydrogen Runner.” This year, she has even arranged to have her book exhibited at the upcoming 2025 Frankfurt Book Fair (also known as Frankfurt Buchmesse), one of the largest book fairs in the world. Despite being retired, she still has much love for science and hopes her book will inspire both future scientists and authors alike.

Those who would like to see Claudia K Leber’s work at the Frankfurt Book Fair can find it under the self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet’s exhibit. The event is scheduled for October 15-19, 2025, at the Messe Frankfurt, Ludwig-Erhard-Anlage 1, 60327 Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

“Hydrogen Runner” is available on Barnes & Noble, Amazon, and ReadersMagnet Bookstore.
