Gollancz Commissioning Editor, Marcus Gipps, bought world rights from Chris Schelling of Selectric Artists.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Massacre of Mankind<\/strong> is a sequel to one of the most famous and influential SF books ever \u2013 <strong>The War of the Worlds<\/strong>, by H.G. Wells. The novel is written by the multi-award-winning co-author of <strong>The Long Earth<\/strong> novels with Terry Pratchett, Stephen Baxter.<\/p>\n<p>Marcus Gipps, Gollancz Commissioning Editor and the editor overseeing the book, said, \u201cSteve has a great track record of collaborating with other authors, from Arthur C. Clarke and Alastair Reynolds to Terry Pratchett. I\u2019ve seen early material from this remarkable new project, and can\u2019t wait to unleash Steve\u2019s new Martian terror upon the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>First published in 1897, <strong>The War of the Worlds<\/strong> by H.G. Wells has been both popular (having never gone out of print) and influential, spawning half a dozen feature films, radio dramas, a record album, various comic book adaptations, and a television series.<\/p>\n<p>In Stephen Baxter\u2019s terrifying sequel, set in late 1920s London, the Martians return, and the war begins again. But the aliens do not repeat the mistakes of their last invasion. They know how they lost last time. They target Britain first, since we resisted them last time. The massacre of mankind has begun.<\/p>\n<p>Steve Baxter said: \u201cHG Wells is the daddy of modern SF. He drew on deep traditions, for instance of scientific horror dating back to Mary Shelley\u2019s <strong>Frankenstein<\/strong> (1818) and fantastic voyages such as Jonathan Swift\u2019s <strong>Gulliver\u2019s Travels<\/strong> (1726). And he had important near-contemporaries such as Jules Verne. But Wells did more than any other writer to shape the form and themes of modern science fiction, and indeed through his wider work exerted a profound influence on the history of the twentieth century. Now it\u2019s an honour for me to celebrate his enduring imaginative legacy, more than a hundred and fifty years after his birth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Massacre of Mankind<\/strong> will be published in hardback, \u00a320, and eBook, \u00a319.99, on the 19th January 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Stephen Baxter is the pre-eminent SF writer of his generation. Published around the world he has won awards in the UK, US, Germany and Japan. He has written more than twenty novels, published in more than twenty languages. His previous works include, <strong>The Time Ships<\/strong>, an authorised sequel to <strong>The Time Machine<\/strong> by H. G. Wells to mark the centenary of the original\u2019s publication. <strong>The Medusa Chronicles<\/strong>, a co-authored novel with Alastair Reynolds inspired by Arthur C Clarke\u2019s short story \u2018A Meeting with Medusa\u2019 will be published by Gollancz in March 2016.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gollancz ha anunciado que Stephen Baxter escribir\u00e1 la continuaci\u00f3n autorizada de la famosa obra de H.G.
