Valley of DreamsA sequel to Martian Odyssey. E-book. Formato EPUB Stanley Grauman Weinbaum - Bauer Books, 2025 -
A sequel to Martian Odyssey. It introduces us to more strange life on Mars, although nothing as strange as in the first—which we revisit for the sake of revisiting it. It makes a jab at imperialism at the end, which actually makes some sense given that this was an international expedition by countries that were fighting or had recently fought over colonies.
The Mad Moon. E-book. Formato EPUB Stanley Grauman Weinbaum - Bauer Books, 2025 -
It's the 22nd century and protagonist Grant Calthorpe is a former sport-hunter collecting ferva leaves for the Neilan Drug Company, living near the Idiots' Hills with a parcat named Oliver. To evade stinging palms in the Ionan jungle, he rewards loonies with chocolate to collect the ferva leaves for him.One day, suffering the native "white fever" and its "attendant hallucinations", Calthorpe follows Oliver to Lee Neilan, daughter of the owner of Neilan Drug, also affected by the fever. Each human believes the other a hallucination, until Calthorpe confirms her report of a newly built slinker settlement, whereupon he rescues her from the local slinkers. Having restored her health, he learns that she had crash-landed an aircraft against the Idiots' Hills while trying to reach Herapolis.
A Martian Odyssey. E-book. Formato EPUB Stanley Grauman Weinbaum - Bauer Books, 2025 -
An astronaut on Mars got separated from his crew members after he wrecked his rocket and has to take a long and perilous walk back to safety and his mother-ship.If this sounds familiar and reminds you of The Martian , you’re not mistaken. There are indeed quite a few similarities between the two stories, and I wonder if Andy Weir took some inspiration from Weinbaum’s work.
