Discovery
2019
Mars! Mankind’s next step in space exploration and colonization. Landing is the easy part. Survival? Well that’s another matter. Mission specialist Georgia Pyke came to Mars with grand ideas to establish a legacy. Instead, she must face her personal demons and rely on Captain Winter to survive from one day to the next. Has she condemned herself to a lingering death on Mars? As if inhospitable Mars isn’t a sufficient adversary for the astronauts, one of their own has been holding a grudge for six years. How far is that person prepared to go to exact their revenge? Before long, the mission quickly becomes a matter of life and death for the twelve astronauts. As they struggle to establish a foothold on Mars, something is lurking out of sight. Something that will change them forever. Discovery is the first book in the highly anticipated sci-fi human colonization series, Mars Frontier. If you like The Expanse or The Martian Chronicles, then you’ll love Paul Rix’s brand new human adventure to Mars.

There aren’t any slow/unnecessary sections in the book so the story remains pacy and well written. I would highly recommend."- J BeeAbout the Mars Frontier seriesThis sci-fi series sets out humanity's early attempts to build a colony on Mars. The science included in my books is (largely) conceivable based on current technology and what is being researched by government organisations such as NASA and ESA as well as private companies such as Blue Origin, SpaceX and Boeing. In other words, what’s technically possible with either current technology or taking experimental research a step or two further. That said, you won’t need to be a rocket scientist to enjoy the story.
