The Moon in Sci-Fi

Where would science fiction be without the moon? Like Mars, Earth's moon has provided the setting for some of sci-fi's greatest tales of adventure. This long-overdue bibliography page compiles information on the many works that feature the moon or a lunar theme. The works are arranged alphabetically by author, and in most cases are accompanied by short summaries. There are the obvious choices, like George Fowler's "A Flight to the Moon" and Robert Heinlein's "The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress." But who knew Washington Irving wrote a tale called "The Conquest of the Moon"? I sure didn't. A handy set of lunar links completes this comprehensive and informative website.
