Gulliver Of Mars (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162665054)

Gulliver of Mars is a science fiction novel written by Edwin L. Arnold. The story follows the adventures of a man named Gulliver Jones, who is transported to Mars by a mysterious force. On Mars, Gulliver discovers a strange new world inhabited by various humanoid races and ruled by a powerful queen. As he explores this new world, Gulliver becomes embroiled in political intrigue and warfare between the different Martian factions. Along the way, he also falls in love with a beautiful Martian princess and must fight to protect her and her people from their enemies. The novel is a classic example of early science fiction, with its imaginative depiction of a strange and exotic alien world, and its themes of adventure, romance, and political conflict.BEYOND THE FIRST flutter of surprise, the Martians had shown no interest in the abrupt termination of the year's divinations. They melted away, a trifle more silently perhaps than usual, when I shattered the magic globe, but with their invariable indifference, and having handed the reviving Heru over to some women who led her away, apparently already half forgetful of the things that had just happened, I was left alone on the palace steps.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
