The Sci-fi Mystery Novel “Moon Luck” by Wayne Scott Harral Has Readers Swooning Over a Man Killed on the Moon

Wayne Scott Harral’s intriguing sci-fi novel “Moon Luck” (ReadersMagnet; 2021) tells the story of 30 astronauts living on the moon for extended periods of time.

The story begins with astronaut-scientists and astronaut-explorers growing plants on the moon, exploring and discovering mineral ores, conducting experiments and research, and developing animosities as well as close relationships with their colleagues. Everything was going well on the Moon until one day, while performing equipment maintenance, Bruce Hollmann, one of the base’s senior members, dies in what appears to be an accident. He was in the maintenance and repair (or “tool shed”) module of the station repairing the lunar lander’s gearbox when a small explosion punctured the module’s wall, causing it to depressurize.
 
Holman was hit by a slew of shrapnel from the explosion, his blood boiling as a result of the depressurization, killing him instantly. The story follows the trail to find the true perpetrator, leaving us to wonder: “Was it an accident or was it an act of another, and if he was killed by a fellow astronaut…”

There is more to discover in “Moon Luck” as hushed conspiracies, secrets, and well-hidden negative emotions are revealed, giving readers a glimpse into the minds of people who must live so close together yet wondering what could happen next. This fascination with good versus evil has readers swooning for its thrills, surprising revelations, and puzzles that keep their minds working like cogs in a clockwork.
 
According to Seattle Book Review: “Harral has clearly done a great deal of research into current space technology and likely future developments, as the space station, the astronauts’ projects, and all the related technologies are described in convincing detail.”

A 5-star Amazon review, which has hooked many readers, says: “The author, Wayne Scott Harral, generated an engaging story through his thoughtful character development, in-depth research, and creative storyline. What makes this book truly unique is that, while it details advanced technologies and makes some exciting leaps into the future with them, I feel it is accessible to readers with no knowledge of the current and future research in the areas, but remains enthralling to them and those familiar with the advancing field of space exploration.” – Michael D.
