This begins a group discussion of our Classic book selection, The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury, nominated by Theresa.
Here you can comment, without spoilers, on any aspects of the book, either before, during, or after reading it.

Wobbley | 223 comments I read this a few years ago and was really impressed! I'm hoping to have time for a reread with the group in July.

Rae | 128 comments I planned on reading this one, and then noticed that my copy is the "revised" edition. Going to have to see if I can find the original version.

Jan Z (jrgreads) | 430 comments I am listening to it in my car but I am not really going anywhere so it is taking awhile.


message 7: by Taz (new)

Taz | 149 comments I noticed that my audiobook has some different stories than the ebook and a different timeline. For example: the same story happens in 2003 for the audiobook and 2033 for the ebook. I read that the most comprehensive edition was produced by Doubleday in 1997 and that an edition called The Martian Chronicles and Other Tales including several stories from other countries was produced in 2003. I find it cool we are reading different stories. It should make for interesting discussions.

I listened to an audiobook and I read the ebook version. They were different the same way you mentioned.

Nelson R. | 31 comments I forgot how incredible Ray Bradbury is, I read some of his short stories in High School and that was the last time I read something of him, this book brought back and want to continued to explore some of his other works.
