One Against the Moon

An early tale of man going to the moon. Quite a thrilling space opera. A man uses an untested atomic rocket, and becomes trapped on the moon. Much like Robinson Crusoe, he is alone, and has to fend for himself, finding edible plants in a cave, and eventually, an intelligent creature, whom he cannot understand. Another rocket lands, sending him both hope for rescue, or danger. Quite a thrilling tale, not to be missed.
