Book Description

April 1, 2002 Bison Frontiers of Imagination
In the late twentieth century, Admiral Julian 3rd can get no rest, for he knows his future. He will be reborn as his grandson in the next century to journey through space and make an ominous discovery inside the moon; he will live again in the dark years of the twenty-second century as Julian 9th, who refuses to bow down to the victorious Moon Men; and as Julian 20th, the fierce Red Hawk, he will lead humanity's final battle against the alien invaders in the twenty-fifth century. The Moon Maid is Edgar Rice Burroughs's stunning epic of a world conquered by alien invaders from the moon and of the hero Julian, who champions the earth's struggle for freedom, peace, and dignity.
 
The most complete version of The Moon Maid saga ever made available, this edition contains the story as published serially, along with numerous passages, sentences, and words excised from the magazine version or added later by the author. This edition also features an introduction by Terry Bisson, new illustrations by Thomas Floyd, the classic frontispiece by J. Allen St. John, essays by scholar Richard J. Golsan and writer Phillip R. Burger, a glossary by Scott Tracy Griffin, and a compendium of alterations to the text.

5.0 out of 5 stars An engaging science fiction odyssey, July 11, 2002
This review is from: The Moon Maid: Complete and Restored (Bison Frontiers of Imagination) (Paperback)
The Moon Maid: Complete And Restored is a classic pulp-magazine saga of the late Edgar Rice Burroughs' science fiction adventure hero Julian the 5th whose destiny is to be reincarnated again and again, until he can lead mankind's fight for freedom against vicious alien oppressors from the moon. An engaging science fiction odyssey by the celebrated creator of Tarzan, The Moon Maid includes countless passages, sentences, and words originally removed from the magazine edition and/or added later by the author. Enhanced with an brief but informative introduction by Terry Bison, this superbly presented Bison Press edition of The Moon Maid is a "must-read" and "must-have" for the legions of Edgar Rice Burroughs fans everywhere!

4.0 out of 5 stars More Fantasy from ERB, October 16, 2004
This review is from: The Moon Maid: Complete and Restored (Bison Frontiers of Imagination) (Paperback)
I've had ERB's Moon series sitting on my shelf for quite some time, and only now got around to reading them; shame on me. The story is about a Captain in the International Peace Fleet named Julian 5th (seems every male child in this family is named Julian). Captain Julian and four other officers are tasked to fly a new spacecraft to Mars (Barsoom; if you've read ERB's John Carter series, this should ring familiar). Unfortunately, Lieutenant Commander Orthis, one of the travellers, has been harboring a hateful, ongoing jealousy of the successful Julian. Julian, by right of his rank, has been appointed as the mission commander, and this sends Orthis off the deep end. Orthis sabotages the mission, forcing the travellers to make an emergency landing upon the moon. Imagine their surprise, when the craft is pulled through a crater into a whole new world beneath the surface! Much like the "deathless John Carter," Julian is an above-average speciman of the human race, and the environmental differences of the moon only contribute to his superiority. However, ERB caught me off guard in this one; I got too used to John Carter succeeeding and saving the day in every single episode of the Mars series; such does not happen here. Julian 5th is constructed into a tragic hero- his story finalized in book 2 of the Moon series, "The Moon Men." Entertaining light reading, and definately ahead of its time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Rocket to the Moon., January 14, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Moon Maid: Complete and Restored (Bison Frontiers of Imagination) (Paperback)
This book prints all three books in Edgar Rice Burroughs' "Moon Trilogy". Each of the books tells the story of a different generation of the Julian family.

Part one is the story of Julian 5th, who sets out for Mars, but is forced to land in the Moon when one of his crew sabotages the ship. He has adventures and falls in love with the Moon Maid.

Part two is the story of Julian 9th, who lives on the Earth after it has been conquered by Moon Men. He starts a revolution to try to overthrow the Moon Men.

Part three is the story of Julian 20th, who leads the final battle against the Moon Men.

This is an entertaining book, if you are a fan of old fashioned adventure fiction.
