Return to Terra Nova

Book excerpt: A planet of intrigue, Mars beckons. Would you go if you had the chance? Return to Terra Nova—Conquering Fear presents compelling reasons to make the trip, convincing the reader that living and working on an alien planet is a future reality. Mars is humanity’s next frontier. This first volume of Thelma Ritchie’s new trilogy about the Martian settlement Terra Nova gives her readers a glimpse into the bravery and sacrifice required for participating in this grand adventure. Tackling the theme of overcoming fear with faith, Ritchie weaves together a story guaranteed to push the limits of the imagination. As always, she writes an exciting and educational book of fiction with realistic characters to emulate. Christian principles and accurate science are combined in an adventure that all ages will enjoy. The sky isn’t the limit as the Newton prepares to liftoff from Nicholson’s Earth orbiter and blast through space, faster than a racing bullet.
