If there is a single book that a person should read if they are trying to dive into the science fiction genre. this is it. Humanity has explored the stars and established themselves on the dusty surface of Mars, with all the incredible highs and lows this implies. For a series of short stories set on Mars, the incredible humanity on display here is breathtaking, as Bradbury weaves his way through all aspects of Martian life. A particular favorite is "There Will Come Soft Rains," which blends incredible technology and that all too familiar feeling of futility in many dystopia science fiction stories.
