"Too prophetic for comfort..." That's how Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Herman Wouk describes his harrowing tale of war in space, a work of fiction being swiftly overcome by the stark reality of today's headlines. In The Lomokome Papers, the author of The Caine Mutiny and The Winds of War tells of an American astronaut who discovers, beneath the surface of the Moon, a civilization whose method of warfare is almost too horrible to describe. This unique novel combines breathtaking adventure, biting satire, and a cry of warning to the human race.
