Description During Books The Long Mars (The Long Earth #3)

The third novel in Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter’s “Long Earth” series, which Io9 calls “a brilliant science fiction collaboration.”

2040-2045: In the years after the cataclysmic Yellowstone eruption there is massive economic dislocation as populations flee Datum Earth to myriad Long Earth worlds. Sally, Joshua, and Lobsang are all involved in this perilous rescue work when, out of the blue, Sally is contacted by her long-vanished father and inventor of the original Stepper device, Willis Linsay. He tells her he is planning a fantastic voyage across the Long Mars and wants her to accompany him. But Sally soon learns that Willis has an ulterior motive for his request. . . .

Meanwhile U. S. Navy Commander Maggie Kauffman has embarked on an incredible journey of her own, leading an expedition to the outer limits of the far Long Earth.

For Joshua, the crisis he faces is much closer to home. He becomes embroiled in the plight of the Next: the super-bright post-humans who are beginning to emerge from their “long childhood” in the community called Happy Landings, located deep in the Long Earth. Ignorance and fear have caused “normal” human society to turn against the Next. A dramatic showdown seems inevitable. . . .

Notice Based On Books The Long Mars (The Long Earth #3)

I enjoyed the last two volumes in this series because the characters were interesting and the ideas presented were fascinating. They are strange books, there is not so much of a plot to them, they're more like a series of fascinating ideas. Stuff happens, but it's more like a documentation of events rather than a drama. The third book carries on this style, and introduces some new concepts to the Long series, with an expedition to Mars, and then through the Long Mars with Sally. Joshua is

When I saw the next 'Long' series was titled The Long Mars, I immediately credited Baxter and Pratchett for at the very least taking the series places unexpected. Since the mildly disappointing Long War, I was somewhat geared for not so much low expectations, but an assumption that Long Mars would follow a similar pattern of the majority of the book being a sort of sociological exploration with a very intense world(s) changing event at the end.Even with differing expectations this book

This book had three parallel stories, and I enjoyed two of them. Unfortunately, the third one was the source of the title, so it was kind of important. I enjoyed the on-going adventures of Joshua Valiente, but he was kind of lost by the end of the book. His family totally disappeared, but they were fairly unimportant in The Long War as well. I enjoyed the ever further venturing of Maggie Kauffman and her navy crew on board the airships. They travel out into the 100,000,000s and beyond range,

By now, were up to book three of five in this series, and while I do think that the first book was incredible, its struggled to live up to the same high standard as the series has continued. Were helped by the fact that the basic idea behind the story is pretty good and so its fun to watch the authors investigate.In the first of these books, we follow what happens when stepping, a sort of new technology, is unleashed on the unsuspecting population of the world that we live in. With stepper

Not as good as The Long Earth but better than The Long War, hopefully this series is back on the way up. This time round I really enjoyed each of the three parallel story lines. Plenty of things happened and some of the characters became really interesting. There was a bit less philosophising which helped the book progress faster and the introduction of the Next offers exciting possibilities for the next book.

I feel this series is a classic "marmite" series in that you will either love it or you will hate it. As this is the third book I expect everyone to have decided what they think by this point but I am one of the former. I adore the light-plot style of these books with them focusing more on a journey through amazing worlds with a limited plot point that ties the characters together. I thought this one was the best of the series so far.The Long Mars is probably an inappropriate title as it is one

This was an odd book in terms of story dynamics: there was no conflict in the book until the very end. Because of this, the book came across as more of an appreciation of space exploration and the possibilities of the universe than a novel. That by itself is okay, but a story with no conflict makes it impossible to care about what is happening and what the characters are saying and doing.
