"Thunder Strike" didn't get the attention that other cosmic-impact novels, particularly "Lucifer's Hammer" and "The Hammer of God" received. That's unfortunate, as this may be the best novel in this subgenre. McCollum's futuristic lunar colony has to contend with decisions made Earthside as a giant comet races toward a collision. The characters are well developed, and the milieu gives a true sense of being in a thriving moonbase. If you can find "Thunder Strike", it is well worth the read.
