About this listen
Meanwhile, Carter Carleton, an anthropologist who was driven from his university post by unproven rape charges, has started to dig up the remains of a Martian village. Science and politics clash on two worlds as Jamie desperately tries to save the Mars program and uncover who the vanished Martians were.
Listen to Ben Bova's complete Mars trilogy, including the first book, Mars, and the second book, Return to Mars.©2008 Ben Bova (P)2008 Blackstone Audio, Inc.Critic Reviews
"[A] gripping and convincing conclusion....Bova deftly captures the excitement of scientific discovery and planetary exploration. This compelling story, balancing action and plausible political intrigue, will easily be enjoyed by both fans and newcomers." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Another attention-grabbing entry in a series that continues to grow in stature, scope, and complexity. Once again, Bova in top form." ( Kirkus Reviews)

And every third book is a disappointing spiral of defeat from the first.
The second Mars book is barely a continuation of the first.
and the first book is a yawn.
This is why I'm only getting the bargain bin inclusions, because USA writers have such tripe for imagination and subject matter.
Yep, Ben Bova should have kept with one character in his series.
I hope his estate is losing money.

I really hope that the jarring of my nerves that accompanied most insights into the characters thinking or outwardly in the social interactions written by this author means that as a person and as a society we are moving away from this (quite shocking to revisit) mindset.
Sadly, it felt like the author was reflecting his own mindset throughout the book rather than making a comment on the society of the time through his writing. He was totally unaware of how rotten society was.
His portrayal of tiny waif-like woman with large doey eyes, waiting around for a man to return, have a man explain something to them or simply be there for lude advances or sex was sickening,
This book has given me some insight into my Mothers society and what she was/is up against with her peers as she adulted through the 70’s and beyond.
Nevertheless I kept listening , hoping the Humans would evolve on Mars but they never did…
Boomerssss Innnn Spaccccccce!
