About the book
An early Arthur C. Clarke novel that takes place on the Moon. The setting is a future in which the Moon has become a tourist destination, and one of the attractions is a huge dust bowl on which one can sightsee from a "dust cruiser". Then there's a serious accident...... This is an excellent hard SF adventure.
