Rocket Dawn (Space Force Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.0 out of 5 stars 96 ratings

Two million miles from Earth, the asteroid Daedalus is drifting into place to become Earth’s second moon. And the most valuable piece of real estate in the Solar System. Control of Daedalus means control of Earth itself, every nation ready to take any action necessary to secure it for themselves. Colonel Tom Knox, former moonwalker, now working for Space Force Intelligence, must don his spacesuit for one final mission and lead a crew to Daedalus to claim it for the United States. There’s just one catch.

One of his crewmates wants him dead.

    Credible, simple and striaightrorward sci-fi with a seasoning of politics set in a not too distant future. No anti gravity, inertia dampers of other futuristic tech, just ride that booster to orbit and deal with sabotage and breakdowns as they occur. Good clean fun!

    I will probably read more in this series, but I am not thrilled. Sometimes you just want a good mindless read. Well here ya go. Airport waiting read. Good enough but not memorable.
