Our world has changed... It is no longer our own. Waters of Eternity is a gripping collection of three original novels from classic science fiction author, John Russell Fearn. Never before in ebook, here are three thrillingly prophetic stories from a master of the genre. In Waters of Eternity, Life on Mars takes a terrifying turn as Rad and his partner Invia realise that the resources of the planet have grown scarce. Forced into action, they turn to the only option they have left - a complex water compound of immense power and great danger... Next, Fearn turns to a forewarning vision of the future in which the planet has become a World Without Women, set three years after a global pandemic that eradicated the entire female population of the Earth. That is, all but one... And finally, in The World In Wilderness, a small group of pilots returning to Earth after observing the distant cosmic collision of two stars find something they never expected. Every human being on the planet has disappeared. In this captivating collection of novellas, we find John Russell Fearn at his most imaginative, engaging, and far-sighted. The ideas we gain in Waters of Eternity may yet have the power to come true... Praise for John Russell Fearn: "... A pioneer of science fiction [... ] he was one of the Greats of the earlier ages, and his name should be there with Hugo Gernsback, John W. Campbell, Stanley G. Weinbaum, Murray Leinster, and all the others whose thoughts and works formulated today's modern science fiction." - John Carnell, New Worlds John Russell Fearn was an extremely prolific and popular British writer, who began in the American pulps, then almost single-handedly drove the post-World War II boom in British publishing with a flood of science fiction, detective stories, westerns, and adventure fiction. He was so popular that one of his pseudonyms became the editor of Vargo Staten's Science Fiction Magazine in the 1950's. His work is noted for its vigor and wild imagination. He has always had a substantial cult following and has been popular in translation around the world.
