The Moon Maid - The Centennial Edition was included in a May 31 article by book critic Michael Dirda, in The Washington Post entitled, "7 Ways to Take Your Book-Reading Experience to the Next Level. " (Click here to read the full article.)
Under the heading Special Illustrated Editions he writes:
For many readers, Edgar Rice Burroughs’s most accomplished novels are the “Land That Time Forgot” sequence and the “Moon Maid” trilogy. The latter has just been published in a deluxe collector’s edition by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc. Its three parts, which highlight incarnations of the same hero over a period of nearly 500 years, are exciting in different ways: “The Moon Maid” is a planetary romance similar to Burroughs’s “A Princess of Mars”; “The Moon Men” focuses on a rebellion against the lunar Kalkars, who have conquered the Earth; and “The Red Hawk” might almost be a western, set in an American Southwest where the weapons are swords, lances and bows. Lavishly illustrated with illustrations by contemporary artists, the set is housed in a handsome box. Besides being esthetically pleasing, this edition also restores cuts made when the Argosy All-Story Magazine texts were first assembled into a one-volume 1926 hardcover.
