Apollo Deception, The
von Mitch Silver

Bewertet mit 3.5 Sternen

It is a popular conspiracy theory: did the Americans fake the landing on the moon in 1969?

Mitch Silver takes this urban legend and turns it into book that I would recommend for anyone interested in space aviation and the Apollo program in particular. As a thriller it didn't work so much for me. The initial chase of Gary is soon over when he gets taken into the astronaut training. And then too many different parties enter the scene, and I had a hard time to understand everyones motives. The various flashbacks to the 1960s would have been more interesting if they didn't only involve politicans

But it was a nice and informative read nevertheless, and the last couple of pages were very exciting (although also quite unrealistic).
