Blinding White

by Jim Dietz

“Is it two decades now?” Sergeant Kerner wondered, asking himself the question out loud. Inside, he knew the answer. Yes, it had been twenty years since his first time on Earth and twenty-five years since he first joined the Luna Marines.“The Blinding White” is an unusual sequel because it takes place twenty years after “Tannhauser's Gate.” It isn’t a coming-of-age story, but one of finding hope/faith after it has been lost. Baumann is again a central protagonist, as well as Kerner, and through these two, the reader sees the consequences of decisions made decades earlier, even when some decisions (such as starting another war) are being repeated.
