Sinopsis
The Second Deluge is a science fiction novel by Garrett P. Serviss, who climbed Matterhorn in order "to get as far away from terrestrial gravity as possible." It tells the story of a devastating flood across the entire earth, and of Cosmo Versal, a modern day Noah who faces public ridicule and disbelief towards his predictions and his Ark project."Oh, to think that all that beauty, all those great palaces filled with the master-works of art, all those proud architectural piles, all that scene of the most joyous life that the earth contained, is now become the dwelling-place of the terrible fauna of the deep, creatures that never saw the sun; that never felt the transforming force of the evolution which had made the face of the globe so glorious; that never quitted their abysmal homes until this awful flood spread their empire over the whole earth!"
