Description:

The Martians brought devastation to Earth—now, Earth is bringing the war to them! In the aftermath of the disastrous Martian invasion, humanity lies battered but unbowed. When astronomers detect terrifying signs that Mars is preparing for a second, final strike, the great nations of the globe unite. Enter Thomas A. Edison, the American genius of science, who engineers a miraculous counter-measure: a fleet of anti-gravity electrical spaceships armed with devastating molecular disintegrator rays. Manned by the world's most brilliant minds and intrepid explorers, this armada leaves the scarred Earth behind to chart the deadly void of space. Their absolute mission: voyage to the Moon, navigate the perils of comets, and strike the Red Planet before mankind is eradicated. Why you will love this: As one of the earliest and most epic milestones in Science Fiction, this novel delivers pure, unadulterated pulp space opera thrills. Fans of classic sci-fi, alien contact, and steampunk-adjacent hard science fiction will be mesmerized by its visionary scope, interstellar battles, and the relentless suspense of human ingenuity clashing with ancient cosmic horrors. It is the ultimate alien invasion revenge story, charting a brilliant course for the genre's future.
