Revolt of the Outworlds by Stephen Marlowe
"Revolt of the Outworlds" by Milton Lesser is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The narrative centers around Alan Tremaine, the son of a recently deceased leader who fought for the independence of the Outworlds—Mars and its neighboring celestial bodies—from Earth's control. The story captures the tumultuous aftermath of a declaration of sovereignty that quickly spirals into chaos as factions within the Outworlds turn to armed rebellion, challenging the
fragile peace that had been established. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a dramatic political ceremony on Mars where Alan Tremaine reluctantly takes his father's place amidst tumultuous events that threaten to lead the Outworlds into war. As Alan grapples with the legacy of his father and the sudden shift towards violence, he realizes that treachery is afoot when the moment of celebration quickly turns into a call to arms. His confusion is compounded by a conspiracy surrounding his father’s vision for a peaceful union. Thus, the stage is set for a gripping struggle for power and survival as Alan must navigate betrayal while attempting to uphold the ideals for which his father fought.
