"Strong characterization and compelling prose." --"Library Journal"
"Stunning and remarkable invention and extrapolation." --"Kirkus Reviews"
"Great! Great characters, science, cultures, action. "Moving Mars" brings together all the things that make science fiction wonderful!" --Vernor Vinge
Praise for Greg Bear' s "Moving Mars"
