The narrative takes place two hundred years into the future. Man has reached Jupiter and is set to reach Saturn. In the wake of this exploration, many Earthlings have taken the free ride to Mars, which is growing in populace and trade, for a new life. A World Government geology team have reached one of the inner moons of Saturn - Iapetus - and, whilst there, the team falls into mishap and only one survives. On Earth, the World Government is poised to reveal the existence of extra terrestrials to a sleeping world. The surviving geologist, stranded on Iapetus, observes these Earth bound extra terrestrials whilst fearing for his own survival. As the narrative continues, we witness the depth of the human spirit, its resolve and tenaciousness whilst in the most deadly of situations.“ ‘Marooned in space’ is one of my favourite SF genres and this one delivers with an atmospheric and eerie space mystery. This is vivid, powerful and realistic science fiction. Reading it, I felt a real pang for this realistic SF approach.”Pat Mills : creator of ‘2000AD’, ‘Charley’s War’ and ‘Ro-Busters’“A refreshing return to classic science fiction - realistic, raw emotion in a suspenseful tale where there are no easy ways out, no convenient answers. A book where you cannot help but read to the end in the same day you start it. Definitely a great addition to any bibliophile desiring a new book in the purist style of science fiction.”Dean Plakas : US Editor at Comics Unlimited“A true science fiction epic. An instant classic.”Guy Dorian : Marvel Comics Artist/Creator
