Kim Stanley Robinson

Blue Mars (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Blue Mars is the concluding volume in Kim Stanley Robinson's monumental Mars trilogy which began with Red Mars and continued with Green Mars. The product of years of dedicated research, the series is a timeless masterpiece, the ultimate in future history.

Mars is now a living, breathing planet, resplendent with genetically engineered plants and animals living beside canals and teeming seas - an Eden to be envied. In this brave and buzzing new world the survivors of the First Hundred have become like walking myths to the Martian youth, but political schisms have hardened into polar opposites. And as civil war looms, an over populated earth looks on bitterly. For many Terrapins, Mars is mocking utopia. A dream to live for, fight for - perhaps even die for.

As the motives, desires and passions of the deftly-drawn characters evolve along with the planet they have made their home, Robinson brilliantly explores and interweaves the political, sociological, economic and scientific aspects of their terraforming effort in one of the twentieth century's finest works of science fiction.
