Never Ending adventure

This book is opening a great advenutre story. This book is really a thrilling and blood cloated adventure stroy.Once we take this book for reading we would be a hero.

Exiting Non-stop Action SF

Moonwar is by far one of the best SF books I have ever read. It was even better than Moonrise.... A great plot and action throughout the book.I would definately recommend this book to any sci-fi fan!

Best of the 'real' space novels in a long time!

Bova does it again! Not content to rest on his laurels for the finishing books on this series, he has built a web of characterization that leads the reader into the world of the plot. Can't wait for the next one!

Bova scores another hit!!!

This second novel in Bova's Moonbase saga is great. Very well written with some unexpected twists. If you are a Ben bova fan you don't want to miss this one.

MOONWAR is a real trip!

Yes, boys and girls, MOONWAR is truly excellent. A satisfying and believable cast of characters and intrigue -- not to mention seat-gripping suspense and action! Ben Bova is truly a master storyteller in the SF arena. And he respects his readers enough to present really likeable heros and keeps them (well, most of them) alive for the ending credits. A salutary attribute, sadly, that he shares with few other writers these days. I can't wait for another installment of this saga. But I'll have to content myself with reading MOONRISE next, as I read MOONWAR before reading this first volume in Ben's outstanding MOONBASE series.
