About this product
Product Information
Mars in 1816 is a world of high society, deadly danger, and strange clockwork machines. Pterodactyls glide through the sky, automatic servants hand out sandwiches at elegant garden parties, and in the north, the great dragon tombs hide marvels of Ancient Martian technology. Twelve-year-old Edward Sullivan has always dreamed of becoming a spy like the ones he reads of in his favorite sci-fi magazine, Thrilling Martian Tales . Instead, he spends his days keeping his eccentric family from complete disaster . . . that is, until the villainous archaeologist Sir Titus Dane kidnaps Edward's parents as part of a scheme to loot an undiscovered dragon tomb. Edward sets out on a perilous journey to save his parents and protect the dragon tombs in the process. Turns out spywork is a bit more challenging than he had imagined. . . .

Outstandingly good International seller ! Super fast postage and just 10 days delivery from time of order.
Exceptionally well priced, this Dog movie compilation sells for outlandish prices except from ThriftBooks.
Most of the movies are pretty slow moving and bad, but there are a few good ones. So, 3 out of 10 for the
DVD set, and 10 out of 10 for the seller, who is Highly Recommended ! - Many thanks !!!
