Moon Vs. Moon: A Lunar Combat Recap!

Place holder  of - 46Why do we only have one moon? Scientists will probably tell you different, but we like our answer better: It beat all the other hopeful moons in a gauntlet of high stakes combat encounters. In the spirit of the time-honored sport of moonfighting, we conducted a few moonfights on our Twitter, and the results are in!

See which moon’s emerged victorious in this moonly-fighty recap, and HEY! While you’re at it, check out The Starless Crown by James Rollins, the first edition in a hot new epic fantasy series about (you guessed it) fighting the moon!

This moon match was a party wipe for The Bureau of Balance, with Silverpelt swiping 54.7% of the vote to claim a narrow victory for the cats of Erin Hunter’s Warriors universe. Youch. We’d prescribe a compress of dock leaf and cobwebs for the Bureau’s wounds while they recuperate.
