Thirty-five million miles of void stand between Earth and the Red Planet—and the "Annihilator" is the only vessel daring enough to bridge it. In this gripping work of Young Adult Fiction, inventors Jack Darrow and Mark Sampson join forces with the visionary Santell Roumann to master the mysterious power of Etherium and Cardite.
This is the longest journey on record, a pulse-pounding Space Opera where every mile is a battle against the unknown. From the electrified perimeter of their Maine workshop to the glass palaces of Martopolis, the crew must navigate more than just celestial comets. With a sabotaging lunatic on board and the threat of total annihilation, this Science Fiction classic blends high-tech speculation with breathless Action & Adventure.
As they land on the Martian sands, the mission shifts from exploration to a high-stakes Thrillers & Suspense survival game. These early Astronauts & Space pioneers face telepathic scientists and a Martian siege over the precious Cardite treasure. It is a masterclass in Technology and Mysteries & Detective Stories as the crew uncovers the secrets of the Red Hill while fighting to return home.
If you are a fan of Jules Verne’s 'From the Earth to the Moon' or the classic scientific wonder of H.G. Wells, you will love Through Space To Mars. This Classics edition captures the 'Edisonade' spirit of discovery and the raw danger of the final frontier.
