Synopsis "The Returning (in English)"

On 6th August 2012, the Curiosity Rover landed on Mars. The following year, Discovery II/c, the first manned mission to the red planet entered Mars orbit. Curiosity’s find on that remote forbidding planet would change the course of human history for ever but would Earth survive that change? The Returning is a science-fiction novel set in an alternative version of Great Britain, one where the Martian invasion of Earth in the last years of the nineteenth century, as recorded by H.G. Wells, actually took place. The attacking Martians had fled Mars having failed to defeat and eject an alien invader from their own planet. As the novel’s two protagonists, Professor David (Dai) Harries, a space scientist at the University of Wales Institute of Science and Technology (UWIST) and Wing-Commander William (Bill) Drummond, a serving RAF fast-jet pilot on loan to NASA soon discover, the force that defeated the Martians is very much alive and intent on abandoning the dying red planet in favour of Earth. The first alien incursions occur not long after Discovery II/c’s arrival back in Earth orbit and before long Great Britain, the chosen arrival point of the alien intelligence, is fighting for its very existence. If you are a fan of traditional science fiction, you will enjoy ‘The Returning’. If you liked ‘War of the Worlds’ or ‘Independence Day’ then you’ll love it… Amazon Kindle Reviews: 5* Loving The Returning, can't wait for more in the series..... 5* Characters are full of personality and instantly likeable..... 5* The returning by Gerald Rennett is certainly a book of two halves, the first lays out a creepy almost brooding picture of terror hidden deep under the surface of Mars, followed by an action packed air/ space collision between sci-fi and Earth's few remaining hopes of survival..... 5* The story line flows and gathers pace particularly through the eyes of the story's sparky journalist Emma.....
