Before the advent of space flight, Ray Bradbury had humankind cultivating planets.
In The Martian Chronicles, humanity discovers an ancient civilization on the verge of ruin.
This classic work presents tales of human interaction with one another and with the Martians.
Ray Bradburys The Martian Chronicles is a must-read for any fan of science fiction or fantasy, a crucial precursor to films like Avatar and Alien and books like Kim Stanley Robinsons Red Mars and Dan Simmons Hyperion , and a haunting prophesy of humanitys destiny to bring our old dreams and follies along with us wherever we may venture forth.
Soar above the fossil seas and crystal pillars of a dead world in the pages of Ray Bradburys The Martian Chronicles.
A milestone of American literature, Bradburys classic collection of interconnected vignettes about life on the red planet diverges from the War of the Worlds theme, in which humanity must defend its shores against its neighbors, for in Bradburys prismatic vision, humanity is the conqueror, colonizing Mars to escape an Earth devastated by atomic war and environmental catastrophe.
