This title in other editionsGreen Marsby Kim Stanley Robinson
AwardsHugo Award Winner 1994
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In the Nebula Award winning Red Mars, Kim Stanley Robinson began his critically acclaimed epic saga of the colonization of Mars, Now the Hugo Award winning Green Mars continues the thrilling and timeless tale of humanity's struggle to survive at its farthest frontier.
Nearly a generation has passed since the first pioneers landed, but the transformation of Mars to an Earthlike planet has just begun The plan is opposed by those determined to preserve the planets hostile, barren beauty. Led by rebels like Peter Clayborne, these young people are the first generation of children born on Mars. They will be joined by original settlers Maya Toitovna, Simon Frasier, and Sax Russell. Against this cosmic backdrop, passions, rivalries, and friendships explode in a story as spectacular as the planet itself. Review:"One of the major sagas of the [latest] generation in science fiction." Chicago Sun-Times
Review:"Yet another masterpiece....I can't imagine anybody else staking out any portion of this immemorial dreamscape with the same elegant detail and thoroughness, it's Kim Stanley Robinson's now and for a long time to come." Science Fiction Age
Review:"Grounded in current and projected technology, yet relying on human drama to propel the story forward, Robinson's latest novel is solidly written and powerfully explicated." Library Journal
Review:"This may well be Robinson's best book and possibly the best of the many and various our-future-on-Mars novels to date." Booklist
