I was thrilled when the audio book versions of the first two volumes in 'The Martian Diaries' series jointly won 5 awards in the 2020 Los Angeles Science Fiction Film Awards, Audio Drama category.

Each volume was awarded 5 stars by Readers Favorite Reviews. Of book 1 'The Day Of The Martians' the reviewer said, “This was more than an audio book. This was, in many ways, a wonderfully executed tribute to H.G. Wells.”

Of book 2, 'Lake On The Moon' the reviewer said, “The storyline is mesmerizing, and Mr. Wilburson has done a magnificent job of melding his story with the original War Of The Worlds.”

“Love is like a tree: it grows by itself, roots itself deeply in our being and continues to flourish over a heart in ruin. The inexplicable fact is that the blinder it is, the more tenacious it is. It is never stronger than when it is completely unreasonable.”
Victor Hugo, The Hunchback of Notre-Dame

H.E.Wilburson - 'Lake On The Moon”
H.E. Wilburson

“Grief never goes away. It just changes. At first it's like molten-hot lava dripping from your heart and hollowing you from the inside. Over time, it settles into your bones, your skin, so that you live with it, walk with it every day. Grief isn't the footprints in the snow. It's the empty spaces between.”
Tyrell Johnson, The Wolves of Winter

“If rules make a framework for the mind to climb about in, why should the mind not climb right out?”
Mike Ashley, The Mammoth Book of Black Magic

“Do not push for success, to push means to move away from you, you must pull, and draw it in.”

Adrian Thanks for the "like" of my review of Ray Bradbury's "There will come soft rains". A great short story in The Martian Chronicles, which is just a wonderful book.

Anyway hope all is going to plan for Episode 3.
Cheers
Adrian
