The first part of a trilogy on the human settling of Mars is a decent book which started very well with a slow moving story detailing the initial efforts at settling on the planet. The disagreements over the methods of progressing with the settlement were fascinating but I felt that the book lost it’s way somewhat when the story went for a more sensationalist line.
I’ll read the rest as it was still a decent book, I just thought it would be so much better when I was half-way through.
