You'll never look at the Moon in quite the same way ever again. - Ceridwen Dovey
The whole world has just watched Neil and Buzz walk on the Moon. Now they are
struck by terror: the lunar module’s engine has failed. There is no back-up, no
other way off the surface. If the astronauts can't fix the problem, they'll
slowly run out of oxygen and die.
This Kingdom of Dust explores this harrowing scenario through the intertwined
narratives of three distinct voices: Buzz on the Moon, his wife Joan back on
Earth, and Aquarius, the journalist compelled to craft a story he doesn’t want
to write.
Marooned, Buzz confronts his fate with a mix of dread and awe. On Earth, Joan
wrestles with grief and sacrifice against the backdrop of 1960s America – a
nation riven by war and seismic social change.
Caught between professional duty and personal turmoil, Aquarius soon discovers
that he will need all his skill to capture this unfolding drama, and all his
courage to follow it through...
