Millennium — Ben Bova

1999 COUNTDOWN TO MILLENNIUM
...to all-out nuclear war...to total human annihilation...to the end of the world!

In a thriving colony far beneath the ancient crater-marked crust of the Moon, the Russians and the Americans join together to launch the most daring offensive ever against Earth in a desperate attempt to save Man from himself...

COLONEL LEONOV
Commander of Lunagrad, the Russian sector of Moonbase Selene, was a cool man under pressure... until politics threatened to make sworn enemies out of his closest friends!

ELLEN BERGER
Had made the mistake of falling in love with a man who loved his country enough to risk death to try to save it!

CHET KINSMAN
The American Chief had a daring plan to avert the threatened war on Earth; but he had only a handful of men -- and he hadn't counted on one of them being a traitor!
