A reporter looking forward to his forthcoming marriage receives a cable that will change his life and the world for ever! He finds himself among a group of passengers on a high altitude airliner which escapes destruction when the surface of the world is reformed by massive volcanic eruptions. The story continues with their desperate search for land as they encounter terrifying sea and land monsters hitherto unknown. PLEASE NOTE: The World Erupts is a book for adults and young adults, who are not easily scared by tales of hideous monsters.BACKGROUND TO THE BOOK: The family of the late Bernard York Jones came across this cracking adventure story while going through his possessions. They believe he began writing the story in the early 1960’s and after several changes to the ending (depending on his mood), he finally completed the book in the 1970’s. It’s taken this long to publish; firstly as a family memento and secondly to allow the rest of the world to enjoy a unique adventure tale that was destined, at some point in time, to see the light of day.REVIEW: I have read your late father's novel,’ The World Erupts’, with great interest and enjoyment. It must have been an exciting moment to discover this story among his things when you had no idea of its existence. He tells the story well, and it's certainly an unusual and fantastic one - a slight touch of Jules Verne I thought. Thank you for giving me the pleasure of reading it.'
