Synopsis: The era is the early 1900's. The crisis is an invasion of blood-sucking Martians and their monstrous machines. Following the defeat of the Martian invasion of Britain, a new threat to humanity lands in the American west. President Roosevelt musters the captains of industry and leading scientists to find a way to turn back the Martian tide.
Critique: The first of a three-book series, The Great Martian War: Invasion is at once both riveting and horrifying. The astute prose will keep the reader on the edge of their seat. Fans of H.G. Wells' classic "The War of the Worlds" will especially thrill to this daring saga of desperate violence and overwhelming odds. |

OK, I am sucker for HG Wells, adding Teddy Roosevelt to the mix is just cheating. My copy should be here on Monday! |

Yeah, I think I'm going to p/u three items from WHP as soon as the dust settles from all the $$$ I've been bleeding since moving into my new house. |
