Book excerpt: The novel 'To Mars via The Moon' bestraddles the lines of Science fiction and scientific fact. Author and astronomy researcher in the twentieth century, Mark Wicks, sets out to demonstrate by a fictional story how a voyage to Mars would be like and what it would entail. Three astronauts Wilfrid Poynders, John Claxton and Kenneth M'Allister successfully build a spaceship 'The Areonal' and embark on a trip to Mars, narrated by Poynders. And as expected of such a trip, it is not without its mishaps and adventures, not least their encounter with other more advanced life forms on the planets.
