Experiencing the beauty of lunar landmasses, in their changing shades of luminescence, or mingling with the star-blue ocean waters... The ship's trip to the moon will be difficult. The more you know about space travel and moon exploration, the better you'll be able to make your decisions. Not only do you have to get there, but you'll also have to make the same voyage as everyone else; there are two rules that you must obey: Go in through the portal, and listen to the instructions that are given. Keep calm and carry on in the ship's presence. The crew is ready to accept you. Listen to their sound. You will feel, for one minute, a sort of numb terror; your teeth will ache, your muscles will ache. You'll feel the coldness of the moon, the warmth of the seas... " The moon is ours.

Download or read book Forever Free written by Joe Haldeman and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A well-written and worthy sequel to one of SF’s enduring classics”—the Nebula Award winner The Forever War—now with a bonus story, “A Separate War” (Publishers Weekly). On virtually every list of the greatest military science fiction adventures ever written, Joe Haldeman’s Hugo and Nebula Award–winning classic, The Forever War, is ranked at the very top. In Forever Free, the Science Fiction Writers of America Grand Master and author of the acclaimed Worlds series returns to that same volatile universe where human space marines once engaged the alien Taurans in never-ending battle. While loyal soldier William Mandella was fighting for the survival of the human race in a distant galaxy, thousands of years were passing on his home planet, Earth. Then, with the end of the hostilities came the shocking realization that humanity had evolved into something he did not recognize. Offered the choice of retaining his individuality or becoming part of the genetically modified shared Human hive-mind, Mandella chose exile, joining other veterans of the Forever War seeking a new life on a wasteland world they called Middle Finger. Making a home for themselves in this half-frozen hell, Mandella and his life partner, Marygay, have survived into middle age, raising a son and a daughter in the process. Now, the dark truth about the colonists’ ultimate role in the continuation of the Human group mind will force Mandella and Marygay to take desperate action as they hijack an interstellar vessel and set off on a frantic escape across space and time. But what awaits them upon their return is a mystery far beyond all human—or Human—comprehension . . . In Forever Free, Joe Haldeman’s stunning vision of humankind’s far future reaches its enthralling conclusion in a masterwork of speculation from the mind and heart of one of the undisputed champions of hard science fiction. And in the bonus story included in this volume, “A Separate War,” Marygay, reassigned and separated from her lover, Mandella, continues fighting in military engagements across the stars—all the while planning how she and Mandella can reunite despite the time and space between them.
