Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson

5.0

Epic, visionary, yet grounded

A truly remarkable achievement. A compelling, believable saga of a near-future colonisation of Mars, solidly based in science and engineering; an incisive capture of the society-wide tensions between transnational companies, governments and media; a huge story of the dramas of dozens of characters making their way through the difficult first decades of life on Mars.
