NOTES

Bliss is certain this is the best time to be Mars-born. The colony has grown - no disaster could possibly wipe them out now. She's leaving her little burg and childhood sweetheart behind to move to Kamp Kans, the largest city on Mars with six hundred eighty-two people. There's a dark side to Kamp and her new boss is crazy, but she won't let that spoil the fun.Her team's building a waterfall inside an enormous lava tube on the flank of the massive Peacock Mountain. There's also work to be done on the hostile Martian surface, where unforeseen dangers wait.But there's more good luck. Earthers announce they're sending a cargo mission to Mars for the first time in generations, and her handsome teammate is arranging for something weird to be included in the shipment. When corrupt people on both planets drag her into the middle of their deadly schemes, surely doing the right thing will protect her.Join Bliss as she explores a buried glacier and builds a park under the vast hump of a long-dead volcano. Discover the malice hidden beneath the colony's placid veneer, as Bliss searches within for the courage to save them all.Colonizing Mars belongs to today's headlines from NASA, Mars One, The Mars Society, SpaceX, and others. Follow the growing excitement for discovery and exploration away from the early fantasies of Edgar Rice Burroughs to Ben Bova {The Grand Tour Mars}, Kim Stanley Robinson {Red Mars}, and Andy Weir {The Martian}. To Kate Rauner's On Mars series - a colony you might live in someday
