Blurb: "This is Houston Flight. You are GO, Apollo."
Less than five years from today, three astronauts, in parking orbit around the earth, hear the words that they have anticipated during long years of space probes and simulators-the words that will send America to the moon. Inside the command module are three very different men: the commander, Air Force Colonel Rance Allenby, an ace pilot, born and bred to flight; scientist-astronaut Leigh Raymond, a coldly arrogant near-genius; and navigator Gene Stanley, a good-natured team-mate sharing one of man's oldest dreams.
Martin Caidin, outstanding aerospace writer and suspense novelist, takes you on a grippingly realistic journey as the Apollo spacecraft maneuvers toward the moon... and toward a burning question:
Will the moon's Russian cosmonaut force, who have already won the race, welcome the unarmed astronauts as fellow explorers - or hold them at bay as trespassers on Soviet soil?
The dramatic answer to this question, the authentically detailed portrayal of the Americans' moon flight, and a stark you-are-there realism of life on the moon are only the beginning of Martin Caidin's powerful new novel. No Man's World is also the moving story of two marriages, and a woman who unwittingly becomes involved with two of the moon-bound astronauts.
It is a perhaps prophetic glimpse of high-powered international politics, threatening man's irresistible thrust toward new frontiers. Most of all, it is a scientifically accurate suspense drama that documents a stunning and timely truth about man in space: the fact that the new space settlers cannot leave their human emotions, weaknesses and conflicts behind on earth-but must carry them into orbit... and beyond.“
