About

Richard Seaton just unlocked the power of the stars, but his discovery has already become a death warrant. When the ruthless Marc DuQuesne steals the secret of 'X'-a rare catalyst for limitless intra-atomic energy-and abducts Seaton's fiancée, an unprecedented race across the galaxy begins.


In this foundational work of Science Fiction, Seaton and his partner Martin Crane construct the Skylark, a spherical vessel capable of interstellar Space Exploration at impossible velocities. Their pursuit leads them far beyond the solar system, crashing into the vibrant, high-gravity world of Osnome. Surrounded by copper-sulphate oceans and seventeen suns, they must survive a brutal planetary war between the nations of Kondal and Mardonale.


This is more than a Survival Story; it is an Action & Adventure epic where science is the ultimate weapon. From the 'Object-Compass' tracking across light-years to the indestructible Arenak metal, Seaton must evolve from a mere chemist into an interstellar Overlord to secure his return to Earth.


A cornerstone of Juvenile Fiction that has inspired generations of Boys & Men, this tale defines the spirit of discovery. If you are a fan of the planetary adventures of Edgar Rice Burroughs or the visionary Classics of Isaac Asimov, you will love The Skylark of Space.
