| Summary | "A Son of Mars, Volume 1" by Arthur Griffiths is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Herbert Larkins, a young boy raised in a military barrack setting, whose life takes a dramatic turn when he is identified as the long-lost grandson of Lady Farrington, setting off a series of events that will challenge his identity and loyalties. The beginning of the book introduces us to Herbert Larkins, a child living in the barracks with the Larkins family, particularly under the care of Sergeant Jonadab and Mrs. Larkins. The chaos of the Larkins' large household culminates in a tragic accident when Herbert's eldest brother is injured, leading to a surprising encounter with Lady Farrington, who believes Herbert is her grandson. As the narrative unfolds, Herbert is drawn into a world of privilege and expectation, leaving his childhood home to assume a new identity and pursue his destiny while entangled in Lady Farrington's complicated family history, making it clear that both his upbringing and future are shrouded in mystery and intrigue.
