What to expect
A monstrous apparatus has been found on the surface of the moon. It devours and destroys in ways so incomprehensible to humans that a new language must be invented to describe it and a new kind of thinking to understand it. So far, the human guinea pigs sent there in hopes of unraveling the murderous maze have all died terrible deaths—except the last, now on suicide watch. The ideal candidate won’t go insane, even as he feels the end approaching. And now they think they’ve found their man.
Al Barker has already stared into the face of death—he can handle it again. But Barker won’t merely have to endure the trauma of dying: he will have to endure it over and over again—mentally linked to an ongoing series of duplicates of himself created and sent to the Moon by matter transmission—until the artifact reveals its secret.
With a cast of fascinating characters taking center stage, Rogue Moon is a rare thriller that doesn’t just make you sweat—it makes you think.
Critics Review
“[Contains] the most terrifying pages in any SF novel I have ever read.”
“A masterpiece…Not only a bequest but a monument…[Proof] that a science fiction novel can be a fully realized work of art.”
“[Rogue Moon] has come very close to realizing our ideal of science fiction, the story of how human beings may be affected by the science of the future.”
“Masterful.”
