Item description from seller

Octavo, cloth. Later edition (first Gregg Press printing). Text offset from that of the 1919 Herbert Jenkins edition. New introduction by Richard Gid Powers. A science fiction thriller in which a psychic invasion by Lunarians who have seized Mars is repelled by an Earth-Venus alliance. "World peril and imaginary war against the background of Marconi's experiments and 'The Crystal Egg' by H. G. Wells." - Bleiler, Science-Fiction: The Early Years 2402. "Important as an early alien invasion, the narrative's weakness lies in its reliance upon psychic possession and warfare in terms of traditional naval weapons." - Clareson, Science Fiction in America, 1870s-1930s 821. The novel was reprinted in Gernsback's AMAZING STORIES as a three-part serial in 1926. Anatomy of Wonder (1981) 2-123; (1987) 2-136; (1995) 2-146; and (2004) II-1277. Clareson, Science Fiction in America, 1870s-1930s 821. In 333. A fine copy without dust jacket as issued. (#156437).
