Summary | "Castaways of Eros" by Nelson S. Bond is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The book revolves around the struggles of two families, the Moseleys and the Wilkes, as they vie for ownership of the planetoid Eros amidst challenges posed by the United Ores Corporation. The story unfolds in a futuristic setting, exploring themes of settlement, family dynamics, and survival in a harsh alien environment. The narrative centers on the Moseley family, who journey to Eros to establish a new life after securing a land grant. Led by the determined Robert Moseley, the family must adapt to their new surroundings and face unexpected challenges, including a disastrous landing that almost costs them everything. As they begin to build their new home, they inadvertently come into conflict with the Wilkes family, who also claim Eros. Tensions rise as both families seek to establish their rights over the land while trying to navigate a deepening rivalry intensified by the impending arrival of the Space Patrol, which will determine ownership based on the success of their settlements. In a twist of fate, love blooms between members of both families, leading to unexpected resolutions that blend cooperation with competition in this tale of survival and camaraderie among the stars.
