About

Book now to join author David Dyer as he explores his reimagining of the experience of a 1960s Apollo mission.

The whole world has just watched Neil and Buzz walk on the Moon. Now they’re struck by terror: the lunar module’s engine has failed. There’s no back-up, no other way off the surface. If the astronauts can't fix the problem, they'll slowly run out of oxygen and die.

Meet Australian author David Dyer as he talks about his new novel This Kingdom of Dust, a bold reimagining of a 1960s Apollo mission, the experience of its astronauts, and those waiting for them at home.
