2 authors picked Under a Darkening Moon as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is one heck of a good book.
A mysterious “explosion” on the moon may herald the end of the world, but don’t expect a lot of heavy action. This book is character driven. No cardboard cutouts here. Get ready to meet real people, complicated and contradictory as real people are—my favorite thing in a novel.
The book’s pace is slow as menace builds. It allows you to revel in the quality of the writing. As I read, I knew I was going to read this book a second time to enjoy the gracefulness of its language.
