Read the pastiche story of HMS Thunder Child from War of the Worlds if you reside in the USA! It is available in print or Kindle Download. The kindle download edition is a mere $0.99. This is a steal for the enjoyment I hope you will get as you go aboard HMS Thunder Child in the year of 1898.
When H.G. Wells thrilled the world with his dynamic War of the Worlds story back in 1898, he made mention of an ironclad that attacked three Martian tripods in the River Blackwater off of the coastline at Maldon in Essex, England, UK. It was a very short, but dramatic piece, but no one really knew much about the brave ironclad, THUNDER CHILD.
Now SciFi lovers can, in this Science Fiction and steampunk style adaptation. We go aboard Thunder Child as she embarks upon her mission. We get to know the crewmen as the ship cruises towards her ominous appointment with fate.
All, upon the sea journey, have doubts as rumors and speculation seem unreal. Gradually the crew begin to realise that things are not usual. The surroundings are different. Even at sea.
