When Captain Justin Thorn is hired to transport equipment and supplies to a mining colony on the moon, he knows it could be dangerous. He doesn't expect that someone will try to kill him. When they arrive on the moon, Thorn and his crew discover a shocking secret that could jeopardize all life on earth. On their return trip they find that their ship has been sabotaged, leaving them unable to return to Earth without burning up in the atmosphere.

Great sci fi story

I think this would be Sci Fi. it was really good. Interesting story and characters. Enough science to be believable, but not too much to be confusing.

Best book I've listened to! Story had me from "go"

Would you listen to Pegasus again? Why?

Yes, I would, because I felt like "I was" Justin Thorne, & continually wanted to see if the character in the book would approach the various problems the same way I would.

What other book might you compare Pegasus to and why?

Not necessarily a book, but it reminded a great deal of the series "Firefly".

Have you listened to any of Theo Holland’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have listened to several of the books he recorded for "Sight Into Sound", & each production gets better.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Beware who you work for! Things aren't always as they seem.

Any additional comments?

The story grabbed me from the start. I really cared about the characters. The voice over work was flawless. Can't wait for more Justin Thorne adventures!

a enjoyable story

I have fully enjoyed listening to this book, it's not the normal shoot up sifi adventure.

Who knew a trip to the moon would bring enemies

This book starts out explaining how Justin became a pilot. Although some of the science facts the author uses kind of lost and bored me at times, I did find a lot of it very interesting. Some of it drug out and was a little slow but it was setting the background and introducing the characters. Once on the moon I found that it picked up pace and was very good. I have to say I think at times the characters were a little too laid back about what was happening.....I mean I think I would have went into panic mode. Overall, it was a truly fantastic adventure that made me smile and at one point cry, all the while keeping me intrigued. I agree with the other reviewers that it made me think of the Firefly series in ways. The narrator brought these characters to life and takes you on an adventure to the moon and back that you won't soon forget. The plan the author invented for the characters to get back to earth was genius. I'm not sure if it would have really worked, but after it is explained by the character you sure would be convinced it would. Overall I felt it was a great balance between author and narrator that really gave an interesting and exciting twist to a trip to the moon.
