Publisher's Synopsis
The moon is a harsh neighborhood. But for 16 year old twins Paul and Jael Wardhey, it's not just dangerous - it's getting downright haunted.
Life is hard enough when just going outside can kill you. It's even harder on Paul and Jael: no one cuts the sheriff's kids any slack, and everyone knows them. But if everyone knows them, why are they suddenly seeing strangers on a Moon colony, where no one enters without permission?
When strange men -- and a mysterious, frightened girl named Cynthia -- begin appearing and disappearing, they find it hard enough to believe it themselves, let alone to convince anyone else. It's up to Paul and Jael to save Cynthia from whatever is chasing her.
But is Cynthia truly the victim she appears to be? Or is she a danger beyond their imagination?
- ★★★★★ I truly enjoyed this work of YA science fiction. It is obvious that Huggins read and enjoyed Heinlein's youth novels, but also can't help but remind of The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress as well. The children in this book have many of the same issues that most children have, but they have to grow up fast in an environment as harsh as a moon colony. Perfect for children who are looking to expand their reading. milesjon
- ★★★★★ A very successful depiction of life on a lunar basis with credible, interesting figures, especially when the two siblings interact with each other, which should seem familiar to everyone who has siblings. Also impressive is the description of the protagonist suffering from a disability, whose condition was a reason for emigrating to the lunar colony... Conclusion: Highly recommended not only for teenagers, but also for adults! Ralph Marcus Seibel
- ★★★★★ When I bought it, I missed the fact that it was a youth book. Nevertheless, I found it really exciting, the characters sympathetic and the, in my opinion, quite realistic descriptions of life in a lunar colony I found very interesting. A star deduction for the bit cheesy end, but good, it's a youth book and there something like that might fit again. Sophia
