Kim Stanley Robinson is an American science fiction author whose works frequently explore ecological and sociological themes. His writing is deeply intertwined with his scientific fascinations, a passion evident in his renowned Mars trilogy, which stemmed from years of research and a lifelong interest in the planet. Robinson's output is celebrated for its literary approach to science fiction, delving into complex ideas with meticulous detail and thoughtful consideration.
As Earth cracks under the pressure of overpopulation, with too few resources, Mars stands as an Eden to be envied. Rifts have formed between the two most powerful factions on the planet's surface: the Reds and the Greens. But now a civil war threatens to destroy all that humanity has done to create a blue and perfect Mars.
GREEN EARTH takes the stories first told in FORTY SIGNS OF RAIN, FIFTY DEGREES BELOW and SIXTY DAYS AND COUNTING and combines them in a fully updated, compressed and compelling single volume.
