A realistic look at colonizing an alien planet #BookReview Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson #SciFi #MarsExploration

A realistic look at colonizing an alien planet #BookReview Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson #SciFi #MarsExploration

This is one of my favorite SF books. I read it, then Green Mars, and finally Blue Mars. A later book called The Martians came out separately but actually continues this series.

If you like geology, you'll love this book.

I Googled terms I'd never heard of, because the way Kim Stanley Robinson writes is so compelling that you want to know every single detail from accretions to karsts to veins of silica.

This book got me invested in geology. I still follow the topic today.

This near-future chronicle of interplanetary colonization ought to be a must read for anyone who wants to go to Mars.

The barren landscape of the red planet welcomes a group of one hundred colonists on a mission to transform Mars into a more Earthlike planet. But it doesn't make anything easy.

Are you a fan of the realism of The Expanse like I am? If you relished the side story about colonizing Mars, then Robinson's expertise in his field will appeal to you. Warning - the great storyline is liable to get you permanently hooked on the series.

Highly recommended. Available on Amazon.

50 Years since landmark book The Left Hand of Darkness #SciFi #WriteLGBTQ #HugoAwards

The Left Hand of Darkness: 50th Anniversary Edition (Ace Science Fiction)

The Left Hand of Darkness

50th Anniversary Edition (Ace Science Fiction)
by Ursula K Le Guin
Foreword by David Mitchell

 

50th anniversary edition—with a new introduction by David Mitchell and a new afterword by Charlie Jane Anders.

Ursula K Le Guin's groundbreaking work of science fiction—winner of the Hugo and Nebula Awards.

From the Amazon book page:

A lone human ambassador is sent to the icebound planet of Winter, a world without sexual prejudice, where the inhabitants' gender is fluid. His goal is to facilitate Winter's inclusion in a growing intergalactic civilization.

But to do so he must bridge the gulf between his own views and those of the strange, intriguing culture he encounters...

Embracing the aspects of psychology, society, and human emotion on an alien world, The Left Hand of Darkness stands as a landmark achievement in the annals of intellectual science fiction.

---

I read this book the first time many years ago, when I was developing the concept of my Chiasmii people. A Chiasma would be fully male and fully female, but would alter between the two genderphases (San - female, and Pter - male) every three months or so. In the "between times" they would be gender fluid. Pregnancy was avoided by avoiding penetration during the female phase. They were telepathic, and universally blond-haired and blue-eyed.

Unknown to them, they had been created to be "genetic vessels" capable of being impregnated by their own seed, creating a single-parent host. This provided ample room for added DNA, which could turn them into other creatures.

In my current story universe, it's been thousands of years since their creator contacted them, and they have only fleeting memories of myths to remind them.

Reading this book inspired me in so many ways. I highly recommend it.

An exciting beginning: Vengeance Lost by JL Stowers #SpaceOpera #SciFi

When a star blows up, someone's going to pay.

Humanity has been fighting the alien threat for decades, and the war just ratcheted up a notch.

Sent to aid a dreadnaught under siege, Dani Devereaux and the crew of Alaska's Vengeance find themselves caught in a trap.

A trap that brings a new ultimate weapon to the battlefield, destroying an entire star system.

Narrowly escaping, she returns home to find victory parades turned into lines of questioning reporters all wanting to learn the details of her failure.

But endings can create new beginnings, and when Dani hits rock bottom, she finds a way to regain her pride—and though not her honor, at least she'll have her vengeance.

Available on Amazon - Free on Kindle Unlimited

Starshine: Aurora Rising (Amaranthe 1) by GS Jennsen @GSJennsen #SciFi #Cyberpunk

Starshine: Aurora Rising (Amaranthe 1) by GS Jennsen @GSJennsen #SciFi #Cyberpunk

Space is vast and untamed, and it holds many secrets.

Now two individuals from opposite ends of settled space are on a collision course with the darkest of those secrets, even as the world threatens to explode around them.

The year is 2322.

Humanity has expanded into the stars, inhabiting over 100 worlds across a third of the galaxy. Though thriving as never before, they have discovered neither alien life nor the key to utopia. Earth struggles to retain authority over far-flung planets and free-wheeling corporations while an uneasy armistice with a breakaway federation hangs by a thread as the former rebels rise in wealth and power.

Alexis Solovy is Earth Alliance royalty, her father a fallen war hero and her mother an influential military leader. But she seeks only the freedom of space and has made a fortune by reading the patterns in the chaos to discover the hidden wonders of the stars.

Nothing about her latest objective suggests the secret it conceals will turn her life-- not to mention the entire galaxy--upside down. But a chance encounter with a mysterious spy leads to a discovery which will thrust Alex into the middle of a galactic power struggle and a sinister conspiracy, whether she likes it or not.
