    Mars the Warning 
    Book 4 of 6 – the martian uprising 
    This fourth story in the series I have written is summarized below; 
    As the Martian revolt reaches its climax, Dr. Lin Mei witnesses humanity's desperate last stand at Outpost Alpha. Crystalline warships emerge from Mars' soil, dismantling human defenses with terrifying precision. General Drake's military forces are crushed at Olympus Mons, while Martian weapons systematically destroy terraforming equipment across the planet. When Martians breach the command center, their leader delivers an ultimatum through fractured translations: "Leave or perish." Drake insists on fighting, but Lin negotiates a fragile truce—humanity will abandon Mars in exchange for safe passage. As evacuation orders spread, the Martians reveal their planet's wounded ecosystems through holograms, forcing humans to confront their destructive colonization. In the shadow of crystalline armadas, Lin broadcasts the retreat, acknowledging Mars was never humanity's to claim. The uprising ends not with annihilation but a bitter lesson: coexistence requires respect, not conquest. As ships lift off, Lin glimpses a future where humans may return—not as conquerors, but as humble guests to a civilization far older than their own.  
    I do hope you enjoy this fourth instalment, and its only $3. 
    the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 plus minutes sets the scene, so to speak, this is heavy metal first but give it a chance and you will be surprised (I felt the martian beings would be extremely angry over humans trying to steal their planet hence the sound) ends with a warning sound music track like an alarm as the next episode will see them emerge to do battle, 1 minutes plus.  
    The book itself runs to about 15 minutes and is narrated in my own voice.  
    I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!

    In the frozen wilderness of the Yukon, a lone wolf-dog named White Fang must navigate the brutal laws of nature and the complexities of human society. Born in the wild and shaped by both savage survival and cruel treatment, White Fang learns the harsh realities of life, adapting to each challenge with intelligence and resilience. As he moves between brutal masters and kind-hearted guardians, his journey unfolds as an exploration of the thin line between savagery and civilization. Jack London’s White Fang is a gripping adventure that delves deep into the primal instincts of animals and humans alike, offering a timeless meditation on survival, loyalty, and the power of compassion. 
    This classic novel, first published in 1906, remains one of London’s most celebrated works, complementing The Call of the Wild with its reverse narrative—where a wild creature is gradually domesticated rather than a domesticated one returning to the wild. White Fang is an unforgettable tale of endurance, transformation, and the enduring bond between humans and animals.
