Summary
Ben Bova’s extraordinary Moonbase Saga continues with a breathtaking near-future adventure rich in character and incident.
Seven years after the indomitable Doug Stavenger has realized his cherished dream of establishing a colony on the inhospitable lunar surface, Moonbase is a thriving community, a marvel of scientific achievement created and supported by nanotechnology: virus-sized machines that can build, cure, and destroy. But nanotechnology has been declared illegal by the home planet’s leaders, and a powerful despot is determined to lay claim to Stavenger’s peaceful city - or obliterate it, if necessary. The people of Moonbase, a colony with no arms or military, must now defend themselves from earthborn aggression with the only weapon at their disposal: the astonishing technology that sustains their endangered home.
About the author: Ben Bova, six-time winner of the Hugo Award, is the author of over one hundred futuristic novels and nonfiction books. He received the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Arthur C. Clarke Foundation in 2005, and his novel Titan won the John W. Campbell Memorial Award for the best science fiction novel of 2006.

An absolute Epic
Started listening to this audiobook and then literally couldn't switch it off. I seem to have binge listened to it in pretty much one sitting.
Scientifically correct and rich in science and engineering with a good spicing of military detail and politics.
The narration was skillfully done and never got in way of the plot. Which is high praise if you've listened to many audiobooks...
Ben Bova rocks!

Audio corrections
I wish the audio corrections were more subtle, they were annoying and distracted me from the story.

Best Yet, 24 years old but not OLD
Although this was written in 1998, this is an excellent Sci-Fi book, part of a larger series and a continuation of Moonrise.

Great ideas
Good ideas. Patchy narration and lots of very boring bits. End is an anti climax. Dated.
