MWSA Review

Author Rich Wyatt has created a fascinating setting for his sci-fi novel, LUNACOM. The year is 2062, and the US has a large military presence on the moon to protect its mining activities there. New technologies have made clean energy a reality, but the largest mineral source required to produce this energy is located on the moon. Russia and its allies also have a military presence on the moon safeguarding its mining operations. Tensions between the two nations have increased once again, and many feel it is only time before a shooting conflict will begin. Our protagonist, a young major, leads a group of mid-level officers as they come up with strategies to counter the strike when it comes. However, the Russians have a new technology never seen before by the US. Communication with Earth has been cut off, and defeat now would be catastrophic for the US and its allies. Author Wyatt has written a fresh, new look into the future with his book, LUNACOM. I recommend it.

Author's Synopsis

In the year 2062, the United States Space Corps has one primary mission: oversee the mining operations of the invaluable Helium-3 isotope, which powers most of the world's energy needs. But when the base is suddenly attacked by an unknown, invisible force, the military leaders find themselves cut off from communication with Earth and left to fend for themselves.

With no way to know who or what is behind the attack, tensions rise and alliances fracture as the outpost struggles to defend its resources and personnel against the unrelenting enemy. As the situation grows more desperate, a small group of officers and scientists must work together to uncover the truth and find a way to stop the attackers before it's too late.
