Crater Trueblood and the Lunar Rescue Company: A Helium-3 Novel, cartea 3
Autor Homer Hickamen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 iun 2014 – vârsta ani
Crater Trueblood has to rescue his ex-girlfriend . . . and the entire human race.
Maria Medaris is the 21-year-old matriarch of the most powerful family on the moon—gorgeous, powerful, and high-maintenance. When she is kidnapped by green-lipped, gene-splicing scientists, Maria’s only hope turns out to be the very man she once spurned: Crater Trueblood.
Crater and the Lunar Rescue Company must rescue Maria before she joins forces with the lunatics who have taken her hostage and aim to make her queen.
Turns out more than Maria is at stake: the planet Earth, majestically rising over the lunar horizon, is in the crosshairs of an asteroid engineered by Maria’s abductors. If Crater can’t stop it, humanity on Earth will be destroyed.
The fate of two worlds hangs in the balance . . . and the clock is ticking.
“Hickam again displays a knack for suspenseful scenes out in the ‘big suck’ of space . . .” —KIRKUS Reviews
“An exciting romp through a surprisingly realistic future.” —JASPER T. SCOTT, author of the Dark Space series

Recenzii
“Hickam again displays a knack for suspenseful scenes out in the‘big suck’ of space . . .”
“With vivid prose, wild imagination, and a keen eye for the sciencebehind the fiction, Homer Hickam transports us to a future Moonthat is equal parts wild west boomtown, hot-rod dragstrip, and royalcourt in a space opera. Packed with big-hearted heroes, damselsmore than clever enough to get themselves out of distress, villainswith double and triple agendas, and---of course---hyper-intelligentslime molds, Crater Trueblood and the Lunar Rescue Company is a thrillride of space battles, runaway asteroids, and all the derring-do anyreader could ever hope for.”
