Praise for Luna: Wolf Moon "Spare, simple, elegant when he needs to be.deep and meaty when he wants to be.[Mcdonald] does his work like an artisan pulling a sculpture from stone. " --NPR "Each of McDonald's viewpoint characters is made human in fascinating and occasionally disturbing detail, and the solar system of the 22nd century is wonderfully delineated." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "The fights and vengeance that follow are more vicious and intricate than anything in Game of Thrones , full of great acts of self-sacrifice and viciousness alike, brave cavalry charges and last stands, cowardice and avarice." -- Boing Boing "For all the enjoyable intrigue he concocts, McDonald never lets us forget that the Moon is a frontier that basically just wants to kill us." -- Chicago Tribune Praise for Luna: New Moon "McDonald's never written a bad novel, but [ Luna: New Moon ] is a great one." --Cory Doctorow "With an action narrative driving this political commentary, Luna is actually a fantastically fun read as well as an important one.

" -- Los Angeles Review of Books "McDonald creates a complex and fascinating civilization featuring believable technology, and the characters are fully developed, with individually gripping stories." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "An engaging thriller. McDonald's portrait of a cutthroat society trying to survive in the deadliest of environments also make it one of the strongest science fiction novels of the year." -- The Chicago Tribune "It's a great scenario, lovingly detailed, and curiously attractive despite its current of unforgiving violence." -- The Wall Street Journal "The best moon novel I've seen in many years. McDon­ald's novel has some formidable SF stingers not far beneath its densely textured surface." -- Locus "The story is innovative and fresh.has a feel of The Godfather meets A Song of Ice and Fire meets Ender's Game .
