A Fall of Moondust by Arthur C. Clarke
5.0
“Humanity had swallowed them up once more, as the ocean swallows a rain-drop.” .
A Fall of Moondust by Arthur C. Clarke was written in 1961, and it is a story of survival following a disaster. I’m going to be going in a bit of detail, if you choose to skip it, you can go ahead and jump to the end after the brackets.
[The Selene is a tourist ship that takes passengers(mostly rich, retired folks) on a Moon cruise. On one of the cruises, a natural disaster occurs on the moon (a Moonquake) and the Selene, along with it’s 22 passengers get swallowed up deep inside the Moon. While they struggle to survive, another story arch runs in parallel to these events, where a rescue team (lead by a badass with a certain motive) tries to look for them.]
The story was intense, and had me on the edge after each turn of the page! The author beautifully crafted this story, and is highly quotable throughout. I give this book 5/5, I HIGHLY recommend it!
