Summary "The Great Dome on Mercury" by Arthur Leo Zagat is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Earth's outpost on Mercury and explores themes of survival and conflict in a hostile environment. The backdrop of the narrative includes advanced technology, alien interactions, and the looming threat of war, specifically between Earth and Mars. In this gripping tale, protagonist Darl Thomas, the captain of the Mercury outpost, faces a dire emergency when a leak in the dome threatens the lives of his team and the alien workers from Venus. As he attempts to repair the damage, he discovers a Martian, who is orchestrating attacks on the dome with the help of the native Mercurians. Captured by this Martian, Darl must withstand the threats posed by both the alien and the merciless little natives while trying to protect his friends and the Earth by refusing to divulge vital military secrets. Meanwhile, his companions, Jim Holcomb and Angus McDermott, work desperately to fend off the attackers and signal for help, leading to a climactic showdown that tests their courage and determination against overwhelming odds.
