Soar above the fossil seas and crystal pillars of a dead world in the pages of Ray Bradbury's The Martian Chronicles. A milestone of American literature Bradbury's classic collection of interconnected vignettes about life on the red planet diverges from the War of the Worlds theme in which humanity must defend its shores against its neighbors for in Bradbury's prismatic vision humanity is the conqueror colonizing Mars to escape an Earth devastated by atomic war and environmental catastrophe.
