Coming-of-age stories always give their protagonists an opportunity to feel excited about their future after learning the lessons that indicate them that their childhood is over. And while these tales of maturing are certainly exciting when they are set in random high schools, Crater will take this important moment of an adolescent's life straight to the Moon.
Crater is the story of Caleb Channing , who was raised on a lunar mining colony and is about to be permanently relocated to an idyllic faraway planet following the death of his father . But before leaving, to fulfill his dad’s last wish, he and his three best friends, Dylan , Borney and Marcus , and a new arrival from Earth, Addison , hijack a rover for one final adventure on a journey to explore a mysterious crater. Hopefully, Caleb can adapt to his new life with the help of his friends.
