  • "Set 200 years into the future, this is the latest sci-fi epic from Greg Bear."@en
  • "Casseia Majumdar dreams of an independent Mars and finds herself involved in the planet's revolutionary war."@en
  • "The young may not remember Mars of old, under the yellow Sun, its cloud-streaked skies dusted pink, its soil rusty and fine, its inhabitants living in pressurized burrows and venturing Up only as rite of passage or to do maintenance or tend the ropy crops spread like nests of intensely green snakes over the wind-scoured farms. That Mars, an old and tired Mars filled with young lives, is gone forever. Now I am old and tired, and Mars is young again. Our lives are not our."
  • "In this Nebula Award-winning novel, a revolution is transforming the formerly passive Earth-colony of Mars. While opposing political factions on Mars battle for the support of colonists, scientists make a staggering scientific breakthrough that at once fuels the conflict and creates a united Mars front, as the technically superior Earth tries to take credit for it. Backed against a wall, colonial leaders are forced to make a monumental decision that changes the future of Mars forever."
  • "That would last a lifetime, and set the stage for a more dramatic act of revolution than anyone could have imagined. Charles Franklin, too, was caught up in those days of passionate youth. A brilliant young physicist with a deep love for his native planet, he was forced to leave his world behind to gain the training he needed. And in those years, the political distance between Earth and Mars was growing wider than the empty reaches of interplanetary space. Moving Mars is."
  • "The daughter of a prestigious family has a dream of an independent Mars."
  • "Own, but by God, we must behave as if they are. When I was young, what I did seemed too small to be of any consequence; but the shiver of dust, we are told, expands in time to the planet-sweeping storm ... Casseia Majumdar was a daughter of one of Mars' oldest, most conservative Binding Multiples - the extended family syndicates that had colonized the red planet. But her life was changed forever by the student protest of 2171. Those brief days of idealism forged bonds."
  • "Greg Bear's brilliant conception of humanity's colonization of the red planet, with lovingly painted details and a grand historical sweep, embellishing an audacious scientific speculation."
  • "Ein Planet kämpft um seine Unabhängigkeit Durch Terraforming hat sich die Menschheit auf dem Mars eine zweite Heimat geschaffen. Jetzt, im 22. Jahrhundert, wird die Kluft zwischen Mars und Erde immer grösser, nicht zuletzt durch die wissenschaftliche und politische Entwicklung auf dem roten Planeten. Dies ist die Geschichte von Casseia Majumdar, einer Marsianerin, die die Veränderungen hautnah miterlebt. Greg Bear wurde 1951 in San Diego geboren und studierte dort englische Literatur. Seit 1975 als freier Schriftsteller tätig, gilt er heute als einer der ideenreichsten wissenschaftlich orientierten Autoren der Gegenwart. Etliche seiner Romane wurden zu internationalen Bestsellern."
  • "A brilliant physicist and the daughter of one of Mars' oldest colonizing families--both involved in the student uprising of 2171--see the revolution take a dramatic, unexpected turn."@en
