Ivan Southall was one of Australia's most distinguished authors. He wrote some 50 books which have been translated into 17 languages. Most of his writing has been directed towards young people but his books are enjoyed by people of all ages. Ivan began writing the Simon Black stories in 1935 when 14 years of age. Simon Black books were translated into four languages. When the disc brought back from Mars is stolen, Simon Black and his companions know that they are the only men on earth capable of tracking down the thieves and preventing a possible threat to the earth. They set out on this desperate mission into space knowing full well that medical opinion gives them little hope of surviving their second exposure to cosmic radiation. They are prepared for the worst, but little do they realise the surprises awaiting them on Venus.When the disc brought back from Mars is stolen, Simon Black and his companions know that they are the only men on earth capable of tracking down the thieves and preventing a possible threat to the earth.
