May, 1970. After a one-month launch delay, Apollo 13 lands in the Fra Mauro Highlands of the moon--and then the trouble starts.The first in a series of what-if stories from the golden age of space exploration, Zero Phase was written based on meticulous research, and with assistance from two Apollo astronauts: Dr. Edgar Mitchell, who visited the Fra Mauro Highlands--and Captain Jim Lovell, who was supposed to go. Dramatic, detailed, and finely written, with allusions to 2001 and Albert Camus' The Myth of Sisyphus, this novella is a must-read for space aficionados and literary enthusiasts alike.

Wow! - Eric Jones, Editor, Apollo Lunar Surface Journal
[I]t was a good read and kept me wondering how it was going to end.
- Captain James Lovell, USN (Ret.), Commander, Apollo 13
LOVED reading this.
- Francis French, author, In the Shadow of the Moon
Zero Phase takes readers to a place where only two men have gone, and a situation no man has faced--illuminating what could very well may have happened during 1970's perilous Apollo 13 mission. I couldn't put it down.
