Flaming London
註釋Against the backdrop of a Martian invasion, Lansdale's sequel to Zeppelins West (2001) chronicles the adventures of two elderly authors, Samuel Langhorne Clemens (aka Mark Twain) and Jules Verne. Other members of the cast include a young H.G. Wells, Sitting Bull, a Martian ape, a steam-powered robot and an intelligent seal (and future dime novelist), whose diary and journal entries form the bulk of the narrative. All must deal with the havoc caused by Wells's dang time traveler, the hero of The Time Machine, who has opened multiplying cracks in the time continuum.
