In this hardbound edition of the 9th book in the series, Tom must
suffer disappointment when a contract to build habitats for a Moon
colony go to another, inferior, bidder. The result is catastrophe
and Tom must mount a mission to recover the bodies of nearly a
third of the colonists. When Swift Enterprises offers to build a
protection system, that offer is rebuffed for no good reason.
Angry, Tom decides to set his sights on an even more ambitious
project: a colony on Mars! It will need to be huge and totally
self-sustaining as no "quick resupply" system will be available.
With a good understanding of the weak points of the lunar buildings
he begins developing an inflatable habitat. He sneaks up to the
Moon for a test and runs afoul of the company that built the
fragile structures. He is even attacked by their rocket. Or, is it
them? There are rumblings that the Brungarians are up to their old
tricks and might be trying to sabotage Tom's efforts. Whoever it
is, they seemed determined to stop Tom Swift!
