A review by slcrow
Life on Mars: Tales from the New Frontier by Jonathan Strahan

4.0

As is always the case with short story collections, some of these are more memorable than others, with Rachel Swirsky and Cory Doctorow's standing out for me among the rest. This was shelved with the "YA" tag in my library, but in spite of the younger protagonists in most of these stories, I can bet that most adults would enjoy them as well.

I hope kids are reading this stuff, however, and dreaming of Mars. Since this current generation has really sucked up the areas of space flight and exploration, maybe if more of the younger generations are intrigued by the horizons of the red planet and beyond, we'll have the possibility to actually succeed in becoming a bi-planetary species.
