Christopher Burke and his crew of NASA astronauts are the first human beings to walk on the surface of Mars. Their return to Earth was supposed to be a momentous day. But a surprise is waiting for them there that’s beyond imagining.
Safe after a treacherous landing in Florida, the crew emerges to find the unthinkable: every man, woman, child, and animal has vanished without a trace.
It’s not a dream.
It’s not a trick.
It’s real.
Alone now on their home planet, the crew sets out to discover the extraordinary secret behind the disappearance of mankind. And whether or not everyone can be brought back.
But they may not be as alone as they thought.

Was not disappointed. Great book!
One of my favorite books it has an amzing story line and chrecters you’ll fall in love with
Just finished this today and really enjoyed it. Loved all the characters and the mystery surrounding their bizarre situation. I found the story very cinematic too, and could easily “see” everything happening as I read — even as far as picturing certain actors in some roles, like Stephen Lang (‘Avatar’) as Rosten and Saoirse Ronan as Mae. I’ll have to recommend this book to my Dad!
Pretty good book! Writing a book report on it right now for an English class!
I love Offworld and often recommend it to Library Patrons looking for a new read that is exciting!
O my gosh!!! This book was amazing!! I read it twice and I loved it both times. I love the suspense. It was one of those books that you just don’t want to put down. This would definitely male an amazing movie.
