    Titan is practically a planet in its own right, with a diameter similar to that of Mercury, methane rainstorms, organic soot and ethane seas. All of the most detailed knowledge on the moon's geology, volcanology, meteorology, marine sciences and chemistry are gathered together here to paint a factually accurate hypothetical future of early human colonization on this strange world.The views from Titan's Mayda Outpost are spectacular, but all is not well at the moon's remote science base. On the shore of a methane sea beneath glowering skies, atmospherics researcher Abigail Marco finds herself in the middle of murder, piracy and colleagues who seem to be seeing sea monsters and dead people from the past. On the Shores of Titan's Farthest Seaprovides thrills, excitement and mystery - couched in the latest science - on one of the Solar System's most bizarre worlds, Saturn's huge moon Titan.'This riveting story, set against a plausibly well integrated interplanetary space, carries us along with its bright and interesting characters. We feel absolutely transported to a hauntingly beautiful and alien Titan through Carroll's masterful weaving of art and science.' - Jani Radebaugh, Professor of Planetary Sciences, Titan dune expert, BYU'It's a fun read! Really makes Titan come alive, literally...' - Astrophysicist and author Ralph Lorenz Award-winning space artist and science writer Michael Carroll has written 26 books, ranging from children's devotionals to titles that include Drifting on Alien Winds: Exploring the Skies and Weather of Other Worldsand Alien Seas: Oceans in Space, both published by Springer. He has done art for NASA, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and dozens of book and magazine publishers internationally. Mike is a Fellow and founding member of the International Association for the Astronomical Arts. One of his paintings is resting at the north pole of Mars - in digital form - aboard the Phoenix lander. He is recipient of the Lucien Rudaux Award for lifetime achievement in the astronomical arts, and the American Astronomical Society's Division of Planetary Sciences Jonathan Eberhart Award for the year's best planetary science feature article.
