Review of 'Red Mars' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

That was superb. A chronicle of the first 36 years of the colonisation of Mars and it's absolutely packed.

While it is very much a hard-sf novel, and the science is very much built into the narrative, what makes Red Mars really gripping is everything else. The characters, the politics, the compromises, the consequences.

The scope of the novel is huge and it deserves every accolade it's recieved.
