Description

"The Moon Maid" by Edgar Rice Burroughs is a fantasy novel written in three parts between 1919 and 1922. When humanity reaches the Moon in 1967 after decades of global war, they encounter inhabited worlds within—and unwittingly enable a catastrophic alliance. A treacherous Earthman helps the malevolent Kalkars invade Earth in 2050, plunging the planet into occupation and despair. Spanning generations from Moon exploration to Earth's conquest and eventual resistance, this acclaimed scientific romance imagines a dark alternate future for twentieth-century civilization.
