Very good book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I was a bit skeptical when I first got this book. But when I started reading I couldn't put it down. It is kind of a sequel to H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds and The Time Machine and Christopher Priest proves true to the originals. I recommend this book to any sci-fi fan.
A great book...

A Victorian scientific romance set in the world of the Time Machine and War of the Worlds. A man and woman are shot off into Time and Space to find themselves on Mars before the invasion. Don't worry, I haven't given anything away that the cover of the book won't have. The book is rich in details, in the mystery of Mars and its culture. Everything you could expect from H.G. Wells himself (if he wrote 361 pages).
A MUST HAVE!

I absolutely loved this book! There are so many things to like about it...--It's connections to both The Time Machine AND War of the Worlds.--A beautiful feeling of love a man shows for a woman (from his point-of-view for a change).--Countless twists and turns.--True characters, true imagination. Get a copy and cherish it!
A charming Victorian Romance with Sci Fi Adventure
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
I first came across this book in 1977 when I was only 19.From page one I was hooked, starting off seemingly like a Victorian romantic Novel, it quicky becomes a Sci Fi mystery, then high adventure on a planet not to far away from our own.You won't be able to put the book down as the plot unfolds, and becomes, well...hauntingly familiar.Do try it !
