With the military unit going rogue, and a massive superstorm threatening imminent destruction, Orville must fight to save the colony.
Praise for The Martian Conspiracy:
"A hard sci-fi novel with shades of Kim Stanley Robinson's Red Mars, though much faster-paced. If, like me, you dream of living on Mars you should read this book." - Graeme Shimmin, Author of A Kill in the Morning
"The Martian Conspiracy takes readers on a futuristic journey, but it's grounded in good storytelling and characters worth rooting for." - Danielle Nadler, Deputy Editor, Northern Virginia Media Services
