Moontrap by Don Berry

hoodster's review

3.0

This is the least good of the four Don Berry books I have read. I was hoping it might be redeemed by the ending, but it is pretty dark. Perhaps realistic, but still a bit of a tough read, especially considering the constant racist language, which was undoubtedly accurate for the time.

I was surprised at how much the narrative drew me in. Trask, the first book in the trilogy is on Oregon's list of 150 books for Oregon's Sesquicentennial. At the time of reading the library didn't have a lending copy of book one. So I kept getting distracted by the fact that I hadn't read the first book. But Berry's writing style is incredibly modern. I kept flipping to the front of the book to see when the book was published. 1962? Really? After I read Trask, I will return to this book.
