Publisher’s Blurb – Lower Cover
IT IS THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY

On Mars a dedicated group of pioneers – among them some of Earth's finest brains – struggle to change the face of the planet . . .

The Mars of this novel has no fabulous cities or exotic princesses; it is the planet which modern science has revealed to us, and the book's authenticity provides a far greater excitement than would fantasy.

Against this background, Arthur C. Clarke has woven a thrilling story about a group of very real people, to show that amidst the wonder of future science, human nature will stay very much the same.

A Startling, prophetic novel by the author of 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY.
