(3) 4-6 Edward, twelve, and his unconventional family live on British Mars in this high-spirited steampunk/sci-fi adventure. When his inventor father, mother, and sister are kidnapped by a maniacal archaeologist, Edward sets off across the Martian desert to rescue them. The unusual combination of British colonial culture and a Martian landscape is well done; future H. G. Wells fans should find this an unexpected delight.
