When the web of reality threatens to break

The black monolith on the moon is history - but now a near-Earth asteroid suddenly changes in an unknown and actually impossible way. Once again, a race between nations is set in motion. Will it be possible to avoid the mistakes of the first contact with the phenomenon? Or will the researchers who want to use the black monolith for their own purposes prevail - without having the slightest understanding of its true nature?

Whoever wins the battle for the Black Monolith will decide the future of mankind. One way or another.

The grand finale of the Luna Monolith trilogy.

Dieser Abschluss fand ich eher schwach, nachdem die beiden Vorgängerbande für meinen Geschmack nicht schlecht waren.
Ich fand die Sprache etwas zu einfach, die Wissenschaft sehr spekulativ und wenig glaubhaft, die Handlung nicht nachvollziehbar und die Charaktere infantil. Der Hund auf einer wissenschaftlichen Anlage (Ein Gravitationswellen-Observatorium auf dem Mond) fand ich zwar witzig aber nicht glaubhaft.
Auch eine private Raumstation mit einem 4-Sterne-Koch als Attraktion und Captain kann ich nur mit einem Kopfschütteln akzeptieren...
Nur sein wissenschaftlicher Anhang, bei dem es um kosmische Trojaner geht, fand ich wieder großartig...

The good guys win out

Good science takes a long time to filter through my brain. This is rated PG-13 since children and most teenagers win get lost in translation.
I survived all three books.

The Earth is disappearing!

The monoliths appear to be some form of reality projector, so the consequences of damaging the one on the moon are more severe than originally thought. The Earth disappears. It is still there but only 97% of the time, decreasing by 3% each day.... The molecular bonds are breaking down making things more malleable than they should be....
As those on the Moon and the quasi-satellite RD-2046 learn more about the monoliths (the former from observations and theory, the latter from interacting with it and other life forms associated with it), they both have theories on how to fix the problem, but which is correct?
In this high stakes thriller, there is some suspense, surprise, betrayal, mutiny, theorizing, fighting(!), and much more to make an entertaining conclusion to the Luna Monolith trilogy.

The Lunar Monolith Series

Very good reading. A lot of action throughout and an interesting and exciting ending. If countries could work together in crisis then put their egos aside, think of would get done in the World

Upset that this trilogy is coming to an end. The Earth is in the hands on astronauts from around the world, while trying to determine who you trust to have the universe's best intentions in mind. Thrilling from beginning to end.

too many technical details

I have really enjoyed his other books. But this one and the second book in the series, in my opinion are too heavy on the science and too light on the story.

The entire series is disappointing. Not really hard science at all. Mostly junk, with some modern science buzzwords. If you like hard science fiction, this series is a pass.
