Hey, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this but I have been hunting a novel that I read many years ago but I cannot remember the name. Here is what I remember:

It was written by a female author.

The main character I believe was a “chosen one” kind of character where he had to go on a journey to a specific planet to fulfill a prophesy.

The character that stuck with me was the main character’s best friend who grew up on a space station. He learned at a very early age the safety of a confined, sealed space, and If you saw a large open expance, that there was probably a hull breach, and you were going to die, or have a very bad day. Thus when they arrived on a planet, he was extremely agoraphobic, and had a hard time functioning under an open sky.

I just thought it was a really cool concept not too often explored in space based science fiction (that I’ve read anyways).

Does anyone know what this book is? Thank you!

    If I’m thinking of the same scene, it was Bobbie the first time she’s on Earth and has kind of a panic attack because she’s never been anywhere where you could just be out in the open like that. I forget which book it was though.
