A wonderful tale of the mythical continent, told with outstanding imaginative ingenuity, chronicling the adventures of the near-immortal Monella. Most desirable, all the expected thrills of an Atlantean thriller plus some: flying damsels; immortals; a satisfying variety of monsters including the frightful shape, with its maddening leer and its blood-curdling scream that welcomes us to the book.

A Son of the Stars

Fenton Ash

As may be imagined from the title, Mr. Fenton Ashs book does not lack for marvelous adventure. A Son of the Stars novel is a complete rewrite of Fenton Ashs earlier novel A Trip to Mars. An exciting science fiction adventure, in which two heroes journey on a trip to Mars, where they have various adventures. In A Son of the Stars the heroes, who bear the names Gerald Wilton and Jack Lawford in A Trip to Mars, are called Bruce Mortimer and Maurice Somers. The names of other characters have also been changed, and there are major plot differences between the two works. All in all, they differ sufficiently to merit their classification as two separate novels. Highly recommended!
