A review by empoi
Blue Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson
5.0
A conclusion to the Mars trilogy that un-apologetically continues with what it does best. The political evolution of worlds in change. There are less individual stand out moments from the characters we have come to love and from the original cast fewer and fewer are present or relevant in the politics of Mars. But this is how it would span out. New people come to power, no one is ever 100% happy, conflicting interests acts on events to gain themselves.
It feels like I'm a fly on the wall at a Martian version of the american 1776 or the Norwegian 1814. The democratic growing pains of a young nation trying their best to lay the foundation of a planet that is evolving. A worthy ending to a great series.
