Red Mars

Bank Holiday. elerrina_amanya ran her leg of the marathon in 44 minutes.

I went for a long walk in the fields, and am reading Red Mars. I'd started it before, but I don't think I was in the right mood for it. The characters aren't that important, Mars is important. In fact at the minute I'm a little annoyed with the characters for having all these human concerns when they could be terraforming.

He does pretty much the same thing in the Mars trilogy except with the longevity treatments. Obviously he doesn't like inventing new characters for various stages of the epics. :)
