The Eyes from Space

Victorian England, on the cusp of the Steam Age.  Science.  Adventure.  A world of possibilties.  Several worlds in fact, and not all of them hospitable.   When a group of inventors and adventurers send signals into the stars in search of alien life, they realise that they are not alone in the universe.  Unfortunately, the creatures they contact aren't human, and decidedly not friendly.  Kidnapped, they're forced to explore hostile worlds for their captors, the terrifying Eyes from Space.
