The Mars Trilogy, book 3

This was a real slog to get through, even more than the first two.  At least the first two had some plot - this was pretty much just people wandering around, trying to figure out what to do with themselves.  I didn't hate it - the writing continued to be nice, and we got to some macro development of Mars and post-flooding Earth, but really, there was no need for the book to have been written.  The story was done after two.

Rating: 3
