Why read it?
1 author picked Hot Moon as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Smale is a fantastic award-winning writer of alternate history, and in Hot Moon we get to see that skill combined with his day job as astrophysicist for NASA. But above all this is an action story of the Cold War turning “hot” on the moon.
There are other alternate Apollo tales (e.g., For All Mankind), but I don’t know of any that have this level of space combat. Smale’s sprezzatura with the scientific details is such that I was never pushed out of the story by their complexity or by doubt in their correctness.
And like all of Smale’s…
From Tom's list on alternate/secret histories that blew my mind.
