Series ✦ Penny’s Take
Moon Quest
Anson Montgomery · 2008
72/100
👍 Worth It
Moon Quest delivers exactly what a CYOA should: clear branching logic, a grounded sci-fi setting, and the replay pull of 15 different endings. Character depth is thin by design, and some paths end abruptly, but for a middle-grade reader who wants to be the hero on the lunar surface, it earns its keep. A solid library pick rather than a shelf essential.
