Samenvatting

The final novel in Kim Stanley Robinson’s massively successful and lavishly praised Mars trilogy. ‘The ultimate in future history’ Daily Mail



The Future History of Mars - Part Three

2020: Mankind lands on Mars

2027: The first colonists arrive

2190: Beginning of illegal immigration from Earth

The battle for Mars has begun…

As Earth is cracking under the pressure of overpopulation, with too few resources, Mars stands as an Eden to be envied. Rifts have formed between the two most powerful factions on the planet's surface: the Reds who wish to keep the planet in its original, wilderness state, and the Greens who want to further terraform the planet for human habitation.

The survivors of the First Hundred colonists, among them Michel, Nadia, Maya, Sax and Ann, have achieved their goal of political independence. Their stories are the stuff of legend to a Martian youth determined to preserve their hard-won gains. But now a civil war threatens to destroy all that humanity has done to create a blue and perfect Mars.

'One of the undisputed leaders of the field in contemporary science fiction' Guardian

'If I had to choose one writer whose work will set the standard for science fiction in the future, it would be Kim Stanley Robinson...' New York Times



The final novel in Kim Stanley Robinson’s massively successful and lavishly praised Mars trilogy. ‘The ultimate in future history’ Daily Mail

Mars has grown up

It is fully terraformed – genetically engineered plants and animals live by newly built canals and young but stormy seas.

It is politically independent. A brave and buzzing new world. Most of the First Hundred have died. Those that remain are like walking myths to Martian youth.

Earth has grown too much

Chronic overpopulation, bitter nationalism, scarce resources. For too many Terrans, Mars is a mocking utopia. A dream to live for, fight for… perhaps even die for.
