-An [[offtopic:ISOT]] story written by the respected AH.COM author [[offtopic:Thande]].
+An [[alternate history:ISOT]] [[isot index|story]] and [[sf index|science fiction]] trilogy written by the respected AH.COM author [[offtopic:Thande]] from February 12 to November 7, 2006. The trilogy consists of three books - **//Moonstruck//**, **//The Arm's-length War//**, and **//The Blade and the Cross//**.
-The main plot revolves around Earth's moon ([[offtopic:The Moon#Luna]]) being displaced in time (Isoted) from the 24th Century to the early 21st Century.
+The main plot revolves around Earth's moon ([[offtopic:The Moon#Luna]]) being displaced in time (Isoted) from the 24th Century to the early 21st Century (from 2350 to 2006, to be exact).
 The story was essentially a testbed by Thande to try out his sci-fi universe in an AH.com context, with the ISOT thrown in to provide an AH link (Thande being unaware at the time that lots of AH.commers write straight sci-fi as well). As things transpired, it then got completely out of control and eventually reached 400,000 words.

 However, most of the major characters are original. Although the book has a large cast, probably the two most prominent characters are Aldrin Garrows, the First Consul of Luna, and Ehred Wrais, a Vároto leader.
