Publisher's Summary

It is 30 years from now, and we have colonised the moon. 

American Fred Fredericks is making his first trip, his purpose to install a communications system for China's Lunar Science Foundation. But hours after his arrival he witnesses a murder and is forced into hiding.   

It is also the first visit for celebrity travel reporter Ta Shu. He has contacts and influence, but he too will find that the moon can be a perilous place for any traveler.     

Finally, there is Chan Qi. She is the daughter of the Minister of Finance and, without doubt, a person of interest to those in power. She is on the moon for reasons of her own, but when she attempts to return to China in secret, the events that unfold will change everything - on the moon and on Earth.   

Red Moon is a magnificent novel of space exploration and political revolution from New York Times best-selling author Kim Stanley Robinson.

Not what I was expecting

Found the book slow and not interesting. Considering the name I expected more time spent in space.


Returned the book.
