Description
The Martians have a plan to end all of humanity.
1898: Martian tripods lay waste to Earth’s cities. The world’s armies are unable to stem the tide of destruction. When all hope appears lost, common bacteria kills the alien invaders. From the ashes, the human race uses the technology left behind by the Martians to build new, advanced weapons.
1924: Armed with their own spaceships, tripods, and jet fighters, the nations of the world are ready to take the fight to Mars. George Patton, Erwin Rommel, Charles de Gaulle, and Georgy Zhukov lead their troops in battle across the red planet to end the alien menace once and for all. But the Martians have one last, desperate plan to try, and if successful, it could mean the end for all humanity.

Advance Praise
"Mark Gardner and John Rust have written a surprisingly believable account of a world where earth has been attacked by squid-like Martians. Earth’s military forces have struggled for years to recover and now band together to deliver payback to the unsuspecting enemy forces on Mars." -Amazon starred review.
"I give this book five of five stars for being a fast-paced, engaging read that kept me rooting for its many protagonists - and wanting to read the original story again after all these years. I recommend it to anyone who likes science fiction, war fiction, or a damn good story." - Amazon starred review.

Polly K, Reviewer
As a relatively new author for me, Mark Gardner is impressive for his imaginative writing. This is a great example of fantastic writing, and I especially enjoyed the presence of George Patton and Erwin Rommel in the battle against the aliens first featured in The War of the Worlds, but with Mr. Gardner's talented twist on the whole thing. Excellent read.
