A novel of one of the strangest places imaginable, a place where hydrogen flows as a liquid, a place with a lightless ocean ten times wider than the entire earth, a place where cyclones larger than planets rage for centuries at a time.

Bova, Ben Venus New York, NY, U.S.A.: Tom Doherty Associates, LLC, 2000 Cloth. Fine/Very Good. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾'' - 9¾'' tall. ISBN:0-312-87216-x. The surface of Venus is the most hellish place in the solar system. The ground is hot enough to melt aluminum. The air pressure is so high it has crushed spacecraft landers as though they were tin cans. The sky perpetually covered with clouds of sulfuric acid. The atmosphere is a choking mixture of carbon dioxide and poisonous gases. What Van Humphries will find on Venus will change everything-our understanding of Venus, of global warning on Earth, and his knowledge of who he is. Price: 7.00 USD
