THE FALL OF MANKIND ON EARTH. THE RISE OF MANKIND ON MARS. Advances in technology provide many gifts to the human race: mastery over the microbiological world, clean power produced by nuclear fuel, and connectivity through the Internet. But each of these brings with it a host of unintended consequences, leading mankind to seek desperate solutions to rapidly expanding problems. Spanning three centuries, these eight stories follow the path of humanity as they seek refuge on a new planet to escape the destruction wrought by their own creations. Could Mars be the sanctuary they seek? Or will it become the battlefield where they meet their end at the hands of their greatest enemies?
