Synopsis

The saga begins due to a mysterious collaboration of genius. Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison advance technology to the point colonization on Mars becomes feasible in 1905 where a raging and brutal war between colonists and nightmarish hordes of flesh-eating soldiers commences a clash of civilizations already in the grip of a third power hellbent on the control of all life in the Universe. Italian engineer, Captain Umberto Nobile is captured and retained for bait while Louise Boyd and Jack Clayton are allowed escape and return to Earth for sinister reasons. The story explores wide-ranging issues such as the proper uses of Science, the development and the impact on ecology.

Présentation de l'éditeur

THE MONORAILS OF MARS In the manner of a Hitchcock film, the suspense runs deep and the plot twists into the macabre and horrific. Who is controlling the finest minds of genius on two worlds? How will the invasion of Earth by Mars and of Mars by Earth bring about the desire of fanatics for Harm-aggedon? What is behind the collaboration of Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison to build an "electric bridge"? Why are War Machines with Death Rays secretly manufactured by leading industrialists? Who is the mysterious Ada who has walked the Earth from the time of Noah? Why is a Las Vegas style religious theme park being built on Mars? How did the son of the Lord of Apes become involved? These and other suspense-filled puzzles are examined and solved in a delightful and humorous look at mind-control and religious delusion, in an old-fashioned pulp-style romp through the 20th century alternate history in Science-Fiction format!
