When shes taken prisoner by Crater Trueblood instead of being killed in battle, she thinks its a disaster.Crater is weary of war. Hes a miner, not a soldier. Hed rather be mining Helium-3 than battling the infernal crowhoppers. But after he captures Crescent and brings her to Moontown, hes surprised how much he enjoys her company. When shes falsely accused of murder, he becomes an outlaw to help her escape.The unlikely pair escape into the big suck and wind up trekking with a caravan of mining pioneers toward a lunar ghost town called Endless Dust.
