Waters of the Moon : Tranquility Down

The science fiction series Waters of the Moon begins with a traditional theme, the story of a child growing up under unusual circumstances. Like Tarzan of the Apes and Clan of the Cave Bear, the novels seek to probe the basic elements of the human character. Just as the Neanderthals sought to mold Ayla to their culture, Grey Waters is faced with a group of manipulative computers determined to create a new governor capable of fulfilling their strategic goals. Will he develop into a tool of the computers, or struggle to overcome their Machiavellian programming? Just like C.S. Forester's sea-going tales of Captain Horatio Hornblower, each book in the Waters of the Moon Series is an independent journey. In book six, we find the young leader of the rebel Lunar Republic embarking on a secret mission to challenge the ambitious leaders of the Northern Alliance. With the moon's orbital paths closed and the Congress-In-Council bent on his assassination, Grey decides he must travel to the most dangerous planet he has ever visited - Earth.
