Summary

"A Honeymoon in Space" by George Chetwynd Griffith is a captivating story that combines romance with the wonders of science fiction. It tells of Lord Redgrave and Lilla Zaidie Rennick's amazing space adventure on the "Astronef". The book, set in the late 1800s, begins on the American liner "St. Louis," where everyone is shocked to see the "Astronef." Lord Redgrave starts off on what he claims is a simple trip over the Atlantic which turns into a major tour of our solar system. While all this is happening, he's also falling for Zaidie, who is traveling with Mrs. Van Stuyler, and there's political conflict brewing that leads to possible war. As Lord Redgrave tries to win Zaidieā€™s heart and keep her safe, the story builds into a thrilling ride with unexpected turns, all set against the backdrop of exploring new worlds.
