Earthlight

Early SF book by one of the masters. Almost all of Clarke's books should get at least 4 stars. This 3 star story from 1955 was written before he really got into his stride so it is not nearly his best work.

Still it is an interesting story about moon colonization and conflicts with in the solar system. As with all Clarke books he uses the best science available and then extrapolates into the future. You are going to get a science lesson even if you don't want one.
