Revue de presse

'Bova continues his tour of the solar system with this novel about Titan, one of the moons of Saturn. Bova's near future extrapolation on man's expansion through our solar system is redolent of Arthur C. Clarke's finest work, as well as that of Isaac Asimov and Gregory Benford.'

(The Bookseller)

'The science fiction author who will have the greatest effect on the world.' (Ray Bradbury)

'A masterful storyteller' (Vector)

'A splendid book . . . of his many books, MARS must be the most important.' (Arthur C. Clarke)

'Fun, thought-provoking, pacy and stylish . . . Gives a good read while turning your eyes to what might be in the not so distant future, just like Clarke and Asimov used to do so well.' (SFX on VENUS)

'Vivid, poetic and wonder-provoking.' (Foundation on JUPITER)

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Second Asteroid War climaxed with the brutal destruction of Chrysalis: hundreds of men, women and children on the miners' habitat died terrible deaths in the vacuum of the asteroid belt.

But one ship escapes destruction. Low on fuel, her communications destroyed, the ore ship Syracuse flees towards deep space with fifteen-year-old Theo Zacharias at the helm.

Three years later, the war long over, Syracuse still drifts through the void. Meanwhile the man who now calls himself Dorn - the destroyer of Chrysalis - roams space gathering up the bodies of his victims. He encounters Theo Zacharias in a clash of purposes, hopes and fury . . .
