The man on the moon was dead. They called him Charlie. He had big eyes, abundant body hair, and fairly long nostrils. His skeletal body was found clad in a bright red spacesuit, hidden in a rocky grave. They didn't know who he was, how he got there, or what had killed him. All they knew was that his corpse was fifty thousand years oldโ€”and that meant this man had somehow lived long before he ever could have existed.

James P. Hogan (1941โ€“2010) was a science fiction writer in the grand tradition, combining informed and accurate speculation from the cutting edge of science and technology with suspenseful storytelling and living, breathing characters. His first novel was greeted by Isaac Asimov with the rave, โ€œPure science fictionโ€ฆArthur Clarke, move over!โ€ and his subsequent work quickly consolidated his reputation as a major SF author. His many novels include the New York Times bestsellers The Proteus Operation and Endgame Enigma, as well as the Prometheus Award winner The Multiplex Man.

John Pruden is an Earphones Awardโ€“winning audiobook narrator. His exposure to many people, places, and experiences throughout his life provides a deep creative well from which he draws his narrative and vocal characterizations. His narration of The Killing of Crazy Horse by Thomas Powers was chosen by the Washington Post as a Best Audiobook of 2010.

Reviews

โ€œPure science fictionโ€ฆArthur Clarke, move over!โ€

โ€œ[Is noteworthy for] the exhilarating sense it conveys of scientific minds at work on real problems andโ€ฆthe genuinely exciting scope of the sf imagination it deploys.โ€

โ€œHard science fiction with a lovely vengeance but done so well that almost no scientific background is needed to understand and enjoy itโ€ฆHighly recommended.โ€

โ€œIntellectual action portrayed as excitingly as any space warโ€”a truly absorbing read and a reminder that learning is one of the greatest human adventures.โ€
