In retrospect, I enjoyed the rocks/geology part, it gave me something to dream about when I drive in desert landscapes and picture myself walking on Mars sometime in the future, running or flying in low gravity, or sailing..!
But back in the moment, I fell asleep many times trying to go through those passages.
Anyhow, I agree that this trilogy is really good work, on so many levels. It gets me thinking nearly everyday, years later, about what I'd need to prepare for as an eventual, hopeful colonist.
- rebuilder 8y agoThat's funny: for me, that book made it really clear that I don't want to even daydream about going to Mars. Too restrictive. Don't have quite that amount of pioneer spirit and ability to commit. But I can see how others might!
