The Relentless Moon by Mary Robinette Kowal
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
In a lot of ways, this is superior to the second book -- which didn't like as much as the first. Being stuck on the craft to Mars had its charms, to be sure, but there's a lot of good to be had staying closer to home.
Astronaut Nicole Wargin takes the narration up and she spends a lot of time on Earth and the Moon. Not only are the technical aspects interesting as such a small portion of humanity will be able to survive the coming cataclysm, but we're treated to lots of feels, espionage, murder, sabotage, and sleuthing -- ALONG with the whole basic plot of SURVIVAL. :)
Plot-wise, I had the best time of all. :)
No spoilers, but there are some rather hard surprises and interesting twists.
All in all, I'm really enjoying the direction it's going. It's a winner!
