Publisher's Synopsis
The Moon Maid is a science fiction novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs. It tells the story of Julian, a young man who falls in love with Nah-ee-lah, a mysterious woman from the moon. Julian is transported to the moon and becomes embroiled in a conflict between the Kalkars, a race of human-like creatures, and the Lotharians, a race of winged beings. Along the way, Julian discovers that Nah-ee-lah is actually the princess of the Lotharians and must fight to protect her and her people from the Kalkars. The novel is filled with action, adventure, and romance as Julian navigates the strange and dangerous world of the moon.I shall not bore you with dry, technical descriptions of our motors and equipment. Suffice it to say that the former were of three types--those which propelled the ship through the air and those which propelled it through ether, the latter of course represented our most important equipment, and consisted of powerful multiple-exhaust separators which isolated the true Barsoomian Eighth Ray in great quantities, and, by exhausting it rapidly earthward, propelled the vessel toward Mars.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
