About this listen

Time is running out for the passengers and crew of the tourist cruiser Selene, incarcerated in a sea of choking lunar dust.

On the surface her rescuers find their resources stretched to the limit by the mercilessly unpredictable conditions of a totally alien environment.

©1961 Arthur C. Clarke (P)2016 W F Howes Ltd Science Fiction Fiction

Clarke is a master. Such exquisite detail at a time when survival in space really was just a lot of conjecture. Very enjoyable.

Intricate & carefully considered
