Moonfall- Jack McDevit

A comet is going to collide with the moon! On the moon is among others, the Vice President of the United States! He is there to "Cut the Ribbon" for the grand opening of the Moonbase. The comet is moving fast enough that it might shatter the moon! This is a blisteringly fastpaced book that I literally read in one sitting. It has it all! It has high drama, suspense, intrigue and politics galore; wrapped up in a fantastic story of honor and heroism.

RATING- @@@@@
