Another timeless masterpiece in the Voyager Classics series
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.

    You fool, he thought, talk means everything. We are nothing but information exchange, talk is all we have

    “Whether it be of this world or of that,
    Your love will lead us yonder at the last.”

    I died as mineral and became a plant,
    I died as plant and rose to animal.
    I died as animal and I was human.
    Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
    Yet once more I shall die human,
    To soar with angels blessed above.
    And when I sacrifice my angel soul
    I shall become what no mind ever conceived.’
