4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Overall ERB entry, March 20, 2000
This is actually two books in one. The first, describing the exploits of Julian 9 was the better of the two, in my opinion, due to the great struggle to lead a downtrodden people up from the dregs of existence and begin the revolution. The second book, taking place more than 300 years after the first book, is more of the typical ERB; i.e. hero gets captured, makes escape, gets the girl, and wins the war. There was some character development here and I found it interesting that the hero's brother was the "enlightened" one. The hero makes some progress towards changing his world view but in the end, remains the action-oriented adventurer. That doesn't mean its bad, just typical ERB. When I read ERB I am always amazed that he wrote his stories so long ago and yet had amazing insight on problems of today and tomorrow. An amazing feat. Enjoy reading the Moon Men.

5.0 out of 5 stars My First ERB Book, January 27, 2000
By 
C. M. Brooks (Boise, ID - USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was my First ERB book and I think that it is one of his finest and accompanied by the "Moon Maid", which I believe is the first book of this duet, makes this a very good ERB story.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not for the squeamish, May 20, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Moon Men (Hardcover)
As a child I wallowed in ERB, as an adult I pretty much dismissed him as the Slave To Formula he was (one might argue that he invented or refined the the formula but that does not make it a particularly good formula, and even a quick comparison with Dumas or Stevenson will suffice to blow this particular Mr. Burroughs out of the water) - however, something about the darkness and savagery of The Moon Men has always remained with me. His vision was here was uncharacteristically, studiously pessimistic and deeply cthonic - the narrator describing his own throat being slit, the dregs of humanity in the wake of the lunar invasion being raised like beef-cattle, and the wonderful evil of the "electric guns" which can be set at the frequency of bone, say, and thus dissolve all the bones of anyone coming within range of the rays (which is actually quite conceivable today, but rather innovative for Burroughs' era) - all in all, this book (and to a lesser degree its predecessor, The Moon Maid) seems ERB's darkest yet most advanced.
