It
is decades in the future and various companies have established
mining operations on the moon. Water and oxygen have been found under
the surface, sustaining those operations. Also found was “moon
gold,” a fuel beyond anything imagined. Winfrey Enterprises is
determined to obtain a monopoly on moon mining and is destroying the
competition. Jastrow Control has given Bucket and Bandit the
assignment of disarming the bomb and figuring out what Winfrey's plan
is before it is too late. That is hard to do when the Jastrow team
has been infiltrated.
This
is an exciting prequel, setting us up for nine months later and
another story. I really liked the (original) Star Trek nature of the
action. I was a little disconcerted by the light hearted banter
between Bucket and Bandit when others were dying nearby. Nonetheless,
I like a good sci fi novel and this prequel has certainly whetted my
appetite.
