About this audiobook
Edison's Conquest of Mars, by Garrett P. Serviss, is one of the many science fiction novels published in the nineteenth century. Although science fiction was not at the time thought of as a distinct literary genre, it was a very popular literary form, with almost every fiction magazine regularly publishing science fiction stories and novels. "Edison's Conquest of Mars" was published in 1898 as an unauthorized sequel to H. G. Wells's The War of the Worlds, but did not achieve the fame of its predecessor. The book was endorsed by Thomas Edison, the hero of the book -- though not by Wells. (Summary from Wikipedia)

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Whenever I think of a sci-fi adventure that will transport me to another time, world, or dimension, I don’t think of this book. The book is from well over 100 years old, but there are many times when Garrett P. Serviss writing is either boring, obnoxious, or bad. However, if you have time to kill and want a good nap and are not worried about missing key moments of the plot, this is a good listen. Serviss is selling.
