A Fall of Moondust Summary

A Fall of Moondust by Sir Arthur C. Clarke

A brilliantly imagined story of human ingenuity and survival, A FALL OF MOONDUST is a tour-de-force of psychological suspense and sustained dramatic tension by the field's foremost author.

Shortlisted for the Hugo Award, 1963.
