Titan is practically a planet in its own right with a diameter similar to that of Mercury methane rainstorms organic soot and ethane seas. All of the most detailed knowledge on the moon's geology volcanology meteorology marine sciences and chemistry are gathered together here to paint a factually accurate hypothetical future of early human colonization on this strange world. The views from Titan's Mayda Outpost are spectacular but all is not well at the moon's remote science base. On the shore of a methane sea beneath glowering skies atmospherics researcher Abigail Marco finds herself in the middle of murder piracy and colleagues who seem to be seeing sea monsters and dead people from the past. On the Shores of Titan's Farthest Sea provides thrills excitement and mystery - couched in the latest science - on one of the Solar System's most bizarre worlds Saturn's huge moon Titan. This riveting story set against a plausibly well integrated interplanetary space carries us along with its bright and interesting characters. We feel absolutely transported to a hauntingly beautiful and alien Titan through Carroll's masterful weaving of art and science. - Jani Radebaugh Professor of Planetary Sciences Titan dune expert BYU It's a fun read! Really makes Titan come alive literally... - Astrophysicist and author Ralph Lorenz Michael Carroll's new novel On the Shores of Titan's Farthest Sea (Springer) is a gripping good-vs-evil tale that sparkles with imagination. It's set on the shores of Kraken Mare the vast methane sea found high in the northern latitudes of Saturn's moon Titan in a future when humanity has spread throughout the solar system. The villains are wicked the heroes are scientists (Thanks Mike!) the story is convincing the dialogue snappy and the scenery is right out of our catalog of findings on this cold hazy and alien world. If you fancy skipping forward 250 years and checking out how humankind might be navigating the very geography and landforms we have uncovered in our years touring Saturn this book is for you! --Carolyn Porco leader of the Cassini Imaging Science team and the Director of the Cassini Imaging Central Laboratory for Operations (CICLOPS) at the Space Science Institute in Boulder Colorado
