5/22/2023 0 Comments The last musketeer series![]() Planet Earth has billions of different locations, all of which are different from each other - but the exterior of the moon is basically the same, no matter where you go. Meanwhile, the world outside the moon base was also more limiting than I had realized. I had originally planned to bring in new residents (which is why the Patucket family is mentioned) but after three books, I was having trouble coming up with new ways to make life in the moon base exciting. ![]() Moon Base Alpha was small and cramped there weren’t many rooms and less than thirty residents. I was very pleased with the world that I created, but it had an unforeseen side effect: My good friend, astronaut Garrett Reisman, who was overseeing the human space flight program at SpaceX, served as my technical advisor. But I also made the decision to write a sci-fi series where space travel was depicted as realistically as possible. When I first started writing this series, I really thought it might run for a long time. The reasons I stopped writing each series are quite different. The posts where I explained this are now a couple years old, so I thought I would revisit the issue. The information in this post may be old news to many of you, but I have been getting a lot of questions from readers asking why both MBA and Musketeer stopped at three books. ![]()
