Publisher Description

Stephen Baxter's The Martian in the Wood, a Tor.com Original

In the aftermath of the First Martian War, in the interim between it and what was to come later, England seemed to once again become a green and peaceful place, if one haunted by the terrible events in Surrey that had happened in those early years of the century. Although people hoped and prayed peace had come, they were wrong. Across the gulf of space, plans were being drawn for a return, but before they could bear fruit a terrible discovery was made deep in Holmburgh Wood, one that would tear a family apart and shock the world.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

“Weird, but good.”
“<strong>Interesting concept</strong> This short book, a sort of sequel to the original War of the Worlds, is an interesting idea, but it just didn't grab me in the end. I probably won't bother with the author's other sequel to WotW.”
