'It was a desert. A vista of reddish rocks and drifted sand, arid
and hot, extending to the limits of their view. A dreary waste upon
which nothing moved or grew . . .' For British pilot Dale Curtance
the Keuntz Prize - to be awarded to the first person to take a
spaceship to another planet and back - is the ultimate challenge.
Not only has he to build a ship to survive the journey, assemble a
top-notch crew and choose a destination, he's also got to beat the
Russians and Americans. Soon the GLORIA MUNDI blasts off from
Salisbury Plain, bound for Mars. There's only one problem - a
stowaway called Joan. Not only does her presence wreck calculations
and threaten the mission, but her tale suggests that Mars may be a
more dangerous destination than they ever expected. 'Perhaps the
best writer of science fiction England has ever produced' Stephen
King
