Read a book a few years back I think and trying to remember the title.
The book was about a young rich kid who goes on a tour of the solar system and then he decides to go out on a spacewalk. He gets sent through some type of transport system to a mining area. He then gets picked up by a mining ship and gets put to work. I think it may have been a YA book but not sure. Any help on title?

Eighteen minutes, Andy? Aren’t you feeling well today? 
Just kidding, I love watching you kick ass.
Thanks…
Thanks you nailed it!
Have you read the rest of the “Jupiter Novels”? If so, are they similar? I enjoyed this one.
Sometime you can come to the trivia contest at Balticon and watch Andy kick ass in person.
No one ever identified my book. Nearly 3 years. 
The only other Jupiter novel I read was “Higher Education” by Sheffield and Pournelle - I should check out the other ones sometime. If you liked “Billion Dollar Boy” (which is a take on Kipling’s “Captains Courageous”) you should check out Sheffield’s “Godspeed” which updates another classic adventure tale
Or see me get my ass kicked by Wendell or one of the other hardcore trivia masters at Balticon…
