From the chart-topping author of "Colony Mars" and "The Belt" series comes a new rocket-fueled, sci-fi epic. When a high-energy solar storm causes a cascade of destruction to the vast satellite constellations that orbit Earth, the ever-increasing debris cloud soon makes travel back to the home planet impossible, stranding thousands of colonists in Lunar space. On Earth, as the communication networks fail and the financial systems collapse, the technological glue that holds society together starts to rapidly unravel. For the increasingly panicked populations, both caught in the grinding gears of this unfolding catastrophe, only one brutal choice remains - survive or die.
