"Space" is a follow-on to "Time", also a good book.
If you liked Time, you'll love Space! Coming soon: Mass!

More ancient (Chinese) NYCB history: in response to this call for science fiction stories on the legal effects of relativistic time dilation, Sean Neakums once wrote:
I recently read Stephen Baxter's "Space", in which a character is
induced to undertake a dangerous mission by the promise of riches
generated via compound interest. This character did a few more trips,
and returned after one such trip to discover that the banks had
undertaken to appropriate the bank accounts of star travellers. I
forget exactly why; I read fast with a retention rate of close to
zero.
