I am also a writer and I loved this book. Adventure, suspense, science just barely fiction. Just the ticket for a good read. Here's what it is about:
Lazarus Sheffield knew too much, secret things, forbidden things, dangerous things. He had to take sides and do it quickly in a world without
tolerance, where religion was power and a free thinker was dead meat. He plotted his escape from the planet of his birth to the planet that held his
birth rights - the moon. Then things got exciting. For thousands of years mankind has looked at the moon and imagined. Many imagined romance, some
imagined science, others imagined freedom and exploration. Still others have imagined an outpost for the newest and best of what man has to offer.
But others have imagined conquest, a base of operations for war from space. In Shadow on the Moon, all of these things come together - the best and
the worst of what dreamers dream. The dream of a society run by consensus based on Full Disclosure. The dream of a colonized moon. A moon that is
financially independent by providing high temperature superconductors to maximize earth's power grid. The dream of dogma free scientific research
aimed at survival on the moon. The dream of lunar independence - kept alive through a precarious balance of autonomy from earth's ancient religious
and political quagmires - exists through the delicate use of economics and distance. However, in this hallmark of personal freedom lays an avenue for
hidden hatreds and fanatic idealism. Out of sight and beneath the surface, it builds into a conquering force bent on domination of the Earth through
strategic control of the moon. Lazarus Sheffield joins into a free society that suddenly has to fight for its life. With nothing more militant than a
police force, the moon must defend itself and its freedom from the forces of ruthless military domination. In the pages of Shadow on the Moon, the
reader finds a mirror of today’s problems transplanted to an airless world where ecology is king and every resource is precious. A world created by
pioneers whose only religion is humanitarian treatment of each other in their struggle to survive in space. The heroes that conquered the moon must
now defend it and the society they created. Thankfully, they have a few tricks up their sleeve! Rob Wilson
