Saving humanity with primitive tech

Earthbound is a must-read for sci-fi fans who enjoy a classic story of humans fighting for their survival. The book's most unique feature is its approach to technology, using only 19th-century tools to save humanity from a devastated Earth and the ruthless Others. Users will appreciate the characters' tenacity and resourcefulness as they try to reclaim their future.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

The Others disposed of Earth’s spaceship fleet as easily as swatting a fly. They blew up the Moon, letting the resulting cloud of rocks and gravel go into orbit. Then, for good measure, they turned off all the power, leaving Earth with nine billion hungry people competing for dwindling resources.Now Carmen Dula, the first human to encounter Martians and then the mysterious alien Others, and her colleagues struggle to find a way—using nineteenth-century technology—to reclaim the future that has been stolen from them.
