Synopsis
The isolation of Moon base Daedalus has ended after twelve years, and Katlin has left for college on Earth. Her home planet is not the dream that evolved from her childhood memories, though, and when news arrives that the base’s liberator, Namazi, has been apprehended, she sets off with her only friend, Beau, to save him. Earth has turned its eyes on Daedalus’s vast platinum store, however, and powerful forces are maneuvering to grasp the helpless prey, with Namazi playing a key, if unwilling, role. As Katlin and Beau are swept up into the violent storm, Van and the rest of the base’s nexgens are finding that lunar life on their own is fraught with its own perils.
Review
"An ambitious and entertaining page-turner, Readler's book journeys into the vastness beyond our atmosphere but remains steadfastly down-to-Earth in its pointed depiction of universal human emotions." --Lee Ware for US Review
5 stars"Blaine C Readler is a master storyteller who leaves a clear trail of backstory that evolves naturally into the current tale. Moonstroke II is a solid science fiction story with enough hard science to attract the hardcore sci-fi fan but, unlike some sci-fi, Readler has created an engaging cast of characters . . ." --Francine Zane for Readers' Favorite
"There aren't many sequels you can pick up and thoroughly enjoy without reading the first in the series, but this is one of the few. The book integrates backstory seamlessly into a roller coaster of a novel, as the narrative moves from one disaster to another. Moonstroke II is clever, fast, and a fantastic example of quality YA action/adventure." --SPR
