Just started reading it. What a fantastic opening line! The Moon blew up without warning and for no apparent reason.
Yeah! I did a doubletake when I read that opener. It was dramatic but also, so what if the moon blew up? Then the implications are laid out and the whole story starts moving pretty quick. Now I have to do a reread!
