Synopsis

Synopsis - “I saw a man stagger from a house and come stumbling towards us. There was bloody foam on his lips and his face had a greenish patch coming up from his neck to his nose. One arm seemed paralysed and useless, the other waved about as if he was trying to keep his balance. He saw us, and an inarticulate cry came from his lips. His eyes were fever bright and hatred shone from them...” “They came from above, their vast wings flapping noisily in the still air. Their skins were pale, a strange, unhealthy blue that contrasted oddly with their red, gaping mouths and their long, white tusks.” Michael Kane, scientist and warrior extraordinary, travels for the last time through time and space to a disease ravaged Mars. This is the final volume of the trilogy by the world’s premier writer of heroic fantasy. The first volume was ‘City of the Beast’ and the second ‘Lord of the Spiders’ – both published by New English Library.
