Red Moon

Aaron Holden, 2027

When the Black Rain falls, the dead come knocking. Phobo is a broken, airless moon above an empty Mars, and New Haven, sealed under glass, is the last city humans have left. Adolin is a field engineer with a best friend who never shuts up. He spends his days keeping the lights on and his nights watching the stars for his mother. Her ship left when he was four and went silent two years later. The city calls her "presumed dead." Adolin has never believed it. He has never waited alone. Milo, his lunehound, was hers first. She brought him home the week Adolin was born so her son would have someone to grow up with, and Milo was lying across the doorway the morning she left. Now they are both twenty-eight. Every morning before shift, the two of them walk a mile around the outside of the canopy, Adolin in his suit and Milo in the bubble helmet Adolin built him, with Mars on one side and the whole black sky on the other. Milo stops to sniff every bolt as if it might be news. It is the best part of Adolin's day. Then the Black Rain returns. It doesn't splash, and it leaves no stain. It smells like cinnamon and bread, and it speaks in the voices of the people you've lost. It knows their names, and it knows yours. Doors open for it. So do the Oracles built to protect the city. Whatever you do, don't let it in. Adolin finds the city's oldest secret, and then a far worse one. Mars is drifting from its orbit, and the strain is tearing Phobo apart. Under their feet, New Haven was built on the back of a sleeping starship. The only way out runs straight through the thing that's killing them, and wherever that road goes, Adolin and Milo will walk it together. Eleven thousand people. One ship. One man and his dog. No way back. And somewhere on the other side, someone has been keeping a light on. Red Moon is Book One of The Luna Odyssey, a science-fiction survival-horror trilogy about grief, family, and the dog who has been at one man's side his whole life. This full-color edition includes 51 illustrations. The cover and illustrations were created with AI image tools.
