Book Description
This “marvelous lunar espionage thriller” by the science fiction grandmaster and author of 2001: A Space Odyssey “packs plenty of punch” (SFReviews.net). Two hundred years after landing on the Moon, mankind has moved further out into the solar system. With permanent settlements now established on the Moon, Venus, and Mars, the inhabitants of these colonies have formed a political alliance called the Federation. On the Moon, a government agent from Earth is tracking a suspected spy at a prominent observatory. His mission is complicated by the rise in tensions between Earth’s government and the Federation over access to rare heavy metals. As the agent finds himself locked in a battle for life and death on the eerie, lunar landscape, the larger conflict explodes across space, leaving mankind’s future in doubt. First published in 1955, this suspense-filled space opera by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame inductee was a significant forerunner of television hits like Star Trek and The Expanse.

Book Description
A teen boy and his family move to Earth’s first lunar colony where they find no shortage of drama in this science fiction manga series opener. The year: 2068. The place: Earthlight Lunar Colony, an international melting pot of scientific discovery and global tensions. Population: 228 adults—and four kids. Fifteen-year-old Damon Cole, who’s just arrived on the moon, is one of the first students at the new Earthlight Academy. It’s tough being the new kid—but it’s even worse when your mother is your teacher. And when your father is Chief Administrator of the entire colony, that’s really asking for it. Damon just wants to kick back and fit in. But soon he’s drawn into the life of a pretty girl named Lise, and her abusive boyfriend. Can he avoid being drawn into a deadly fistfight at the top of the lunar dome? And if so, will he be ready for the terror that’s coming—from the adult world? Praise for Earthlight, Volume 1 “Schons’s art is a standout; he draws spacesuits and SF gizmos well but doesn’t lose sight of the characters. . . . Moore introduces concepts and characters effectively with just a few text lines. . . . Basically The O.C. on the moon, Earthlight’s situations are still universal and appealing for a YA audience.” —Publishers Weekly
