Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Paris Bresneva was a Martian with no obligations and one simple need - a job that paid enough to keep him in happy beer and occasional female companionship. He planned to look for such a job when the meager inheritance from his mother was gone, and there was a good chance that Paris would have lived happily ever after if he had done that, but he did not. The opportunity to be a genuine spy for the government had too much appeal to his inner child. Thus began his strange odyssey to become the first sniper on the Red Planet. The major nations of Earth and the settlements of Mars were on a collision course and some type of fighting war appeared to be inevitable. There was a big problem, however; factions had developed. Some were motivated by opposing political positions concerning relations with Earth, while at least one coalesced from personal lust for power and an obsession with controlling all of Mars. Paris soon found himself embroiled in parochial disputes that were quickly turning deadly, and he had to pick a side. Assistance in making that difficult decision came via a young rebel going by the intriguing name of Arbor. Her toughness and pragmatism rivaled his, but the same could not be said about their philosophy on life, until the bullet met the bone, and cousin fought cousin.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Life on Earth is becoming more difficult as the 23RD century dawns. The Alliance of nations that established the settlements on Mars has dwindled in number as economic woes spread. Emigration to Mars has ceased. Rare elements on Earth critical to governments and industries are being depleted rapidly, and Mars is becoming an indispensable source. Rivalries are reborn between nations and companies, and as always, there are those who stand ready to capitalize on the situation regardless of the cost. The first generation of those born on Mars are faced with critical decisions that will determine the future of their planet and the way of life that they take for granted. With eight settlements and a population barely over 50,000 (many of those babies and children), the Martians are seriously outnumbered and out gunned. As always, however, their strength lies in their people, and the unique bond that has developed with computational intelligence. But bloodless revolutions are rare, even on Mars. The road to independence is never easy, no matter what planet you are on! This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Reviews for Butterscotch Dawn "If you are looking for a thrilling science fiction story in the not too far off future then read and enjoy this book." "Butterscotch Dawn was a great read. It painted a realistic and exciting view of the challenges that early Mars settlers will face. In the tradition of Red Mars, it made our future on Mars feel 100% real." "There is non-stop action start to finish with excellent attention to details that affords the reader with a real understanding of what exploring mars may be like and what challenges it would present." "As I read this book the imagery jumps at me, and it is like I am in the pmozer with the characters." Any landing within the north polar cap of Mars carried risk, but the pay was soooo good. Nobody else would take the job, no matter what it paid. Only one remotely controlled exploration hopper came back from the cold, crusty region, but the samples it returned were unlike anything seen before. Someone had to go; life had once existed there. Now, with a wounded hopper and the mother of all dust storms circling the planet, death was waiting there, but the Grim Reaper's job was not going to be easy. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Vol. 1 of The Earth-Mars Chronicles presented the events, drama, and personalities surrounding the decision of an international Alliance to establish a large human foothold on Mars. Vol. 2 examined the people and events that carved out a new life in multiple settlements on the Red Planet. Now complex relations between Earth and Mars are unavoidable. Her name is Liu. She was one of the first born of the new breed of humans - Martians. She was different from the children born on Earth who migrated to Mars, and sometimes the "Earthers" and the "Marties" yelled at each other, but she never participated. Over time, Liu realized that the differences went well beyond the physical; she had a thirst for knowledge that was unquenchable. By age 15 there was nothing left to learn on Mars and she left for Earth-Mars University in Earth orbit. Thus began a period in the history of Earth-Mars relations that would ultimately be dominated by her name, even though those closest to her would never comprehend the extent of her powers. But, there was another name she would share history with; one that was known for his ruthlessness as much as his accomplishments - Jon Vander. This item is printed on demand.
