Full Description
A new novel from Ben Bova, creator of the New York Times bestselling
Grand Tour science fiction series.
How do you get to the Red Planet? Not via a benighted government program
trapped in red tape and bound by budget constrictions, that's for sure.
No, what it will take is a helping of adventure, science, corporate powerplays,
a generous dollop of seduction — both in and out of the boardroom —
and money, money, money! Art Thrasher knows this. He is a man with a driving
vision: send humans to Mars. The government has utterly failed, but Thrasher has
got the plan to accomplish such a feat: form a "club" of
billionaires to chip in one billion a year until the dream is accomplished. But
these are men and women who are tough cookies, addicted to a profitable
bottom-line, and disdainful of pie-in-the-sky dreamers who want to use their
cash to make somebody else's dreams come true. But, Art Thrasher is
prepared to do whatever it takes to get humans on Mars — or die
trying!
