{red|green|blue} Mars

SF novelist Cory Doctorow has posted what he calls a "Red Mars: a very belated appreciation". He says "Because now I've finally read Red Mars, and I am agog at what may be the finest sf novel I've ever read...Robinson doesn't just shine here: he glows."

I agree, Cory, and welcome to the fold.

Robinson's trilogy is that peculiar and particular variety of SF: fun for the lasers-and-rockets hounds, while still being rewarding - deeply and richly rewarding - for social theorists, political thinkers, even revolutionaries.

It's good to see a writer for whom I have a great deal of respect appreciated and honored by another writer for whom I have a great deal of respect.
