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 Sea provides thrills, excitement, and mystery—couched in the latest science—on one of the Solar System’s most bizarre worlds, Saturn’s huge moon Titan.

Michael Carroll has spent decades as a science journalist and even longer as an astronomical artist. He received the AAS Division of Planetary Science’s Jonathan Eberhart Award for the best planetary science feature article of 2012. He lectures extensively in concert with his various books, and has done invited talks at science museums, aerospace facilities, and NASA centers.

Lauren Ezzo is a Chicago based narrator/actor. At this writing she has narrated over 150 titles for authors including Richard Kirshenbaum, Claire Legrand, Georgia Clark, Adam Rapp, Christopher Rice, & Kirk Lynn. She has won multiple awards for her narration, including several “Best of the Year” lists, and several Earphones Awards. In 2016, her performance of “The Light Fantastic", by Sarah Combs, co-narrated with Todd Haberkorn, was named one of AudioFile’s best books of the year. She was accorded the same honor in 2017 from School Library Journal for her narration of “To Stay Alive: Mary Ann Graves and the Tragic Journey of the Donner Party”. In 2018, she was Audie Award-nominated as part of a full cast of narrators for Best Original Work, “Nevertheless We Persisted”, performing two pieces - one of which she authored. She is a proud member of the Audio Publishers Association, and a lifelong bookworm.

Reviews

“Carroll’s knowledge of planetary science combines with a great little adventure on Saturn’s biggest moon. His descriptions of oily seas and methane monsoons put you in that alien world, front and center. The technology is convincing; I can imagine future astronauts doing exactly the kinds of things Mike describes. I wish I could be one of them.”
