MARS

by Thea Swanson

The brief, energetic and quirky tales in MARS are set in the future, 3500-3700, on the planet Mars. Regret infuses the stories as human participation in Earth’s climate change cannot be undone and has caused the need for planetary evacuation.

From Atticus Review: "Swanson’s writing is both humorous and dark...There is still a dreamlike quality in the children of the new Mars...MARS is successful because of the human emotions that survive in the new race that thrives on Mars."
