About this ebook

All three volumes of the worldwide bestselling Mars trilogy.

Mars – the barren, forbidding planet that epitomises mankind’s dreams of space conquest.

From the first pioneers who looked back at Earth and saw a small blue star, to the first colonists – hand-picked scientists with the skills necessary to create life from cold desert – Red Mars is the story of a new genesis. It is also the story of how Man must struggle against his own self-destructive mechanisms to achieve his dreams: before he even sets foot on the red planet, factions are forming, tensions are rising and violence is brewing... for civilization can be very uncivilized.

Definitely worth the read. It starts off a bit slowly, but it does pick up. Some characters aren't very likeable though, so when a chapter tells the story from their perspective (e.g. Frank), it can be a little bit boring & frustrating. Sometimes the pages go on and on with what I think is an unnecessary amount of description of the surroundings. Enjoyed the vast majority of the series though!
