Book excerpt: Jayn Galt and her best friends, Ozzie and Wayne, fresh out of high school, are relaxing for the summer before heading off to University when Jayn's uncle Rick, a decorated A-10 Warthog pilot and Nobel nominated nuclear physicist, arrives and offers them the opportunity to help him with a research project. At a secret facility near Area 51 the team makes a surprising discovery that may change the future of transportation on and off Earth.Using their individual skills and ingenuity the team builds a spaceplane and embarks on the first civilian trip to and landing on the moon, only to discover that they are NOT the first, nor even the second, visitors other than Apollo missions and that they are faced with a hostile reception.Trapped on the moon with a wrecked spaceplane, limited resources, and with a seemingly unstoppable attack on Earth underway the stranded team and their friends on Earth work feverishly to affect a rescue and prevent the Twelver Armageddon.
