Luna: Wolf Moon continues Ian McDonald's saga of the Five Dragons. In an unstable lunar environment, the shifting loyalties and political machinations of each family reach the zenith of their most fertile plots as outright war erupts. But Corta Helio needs allies, and to find them, the fleeing son undertakes an audacious, impossible journey-to Earth. After all, Lucas always was the Schemer, and even in death, he would go to any lengths to take back everything and build a new Corta Helio, more powerful than before. Only Lady Sun, dowager of Taiyang, suspects that Lucas Corta is not dead, and more to the point-that he is still a major player in the game. And the last appointed heir, Lucas, has vanished of the surface of the moon. The remaining Helio children, Lucasinho and Luna, are under the protection of the powerful Asamoahs, while Robson, still reeling from witnessing his parent's violent deaths, is now a ward-virtually a hostage- of Mackenzie Metals. Its riches are divided up among its many enemies, its survivors scattered. Corta Helio, one of the five family corporations that rule the Moon, has fallen.
