DESCRIPTION

The Mars trilogy is a series of science fiction novels by Kim Stanley Robinson that chronicles the settlement and terraforming of the planet Mars through the personal and detailed viewpoints of a wide variety of characters spanning 187 years, from 2026 to 2212. Ultimately more utopian than dystopian, the story focuses on egalitarian, sociological, and scientific advances made on Mars, while Earth suffers from overpopulation and ecological disaster. The three novels are Red Mars (1992), Green Mars (1993), and Blue Mars (1996). The Martians (1999) is a collection of short stories set in the same fictional universe. This book, Red Mars won the BSFA Award in 1992 and Nebula Award for Best Novel in 1993. Note: this listing is only for Red Mars.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
We are one of the few sellers that package our items with not only great care but environmental impact consideration. We're committed to a carbon-neutral parcel delivery through Australia Post which provides positive environmental and social impacts.

We utilise the following packaging:

  • We use a Landfill-biodegradable bundling wrap to quickly secure and bundle items to avoid damage during transit. It can be recycled or disposed of in the general rubbish bin. Once disposed to landfill biodegradation is accelerated approximately 90+% faster than conventional bundling wrap, producing an organic matter (a natural fertiliser) and no microplastics. We're so Happy about this!

  • All of our satchels are recyclable.
  • All of our satchels are made from 80% recycled content plastic.
