Publisher's Summary

What happens when your dream mission to Mars is a reality television nightmare?

For the six lucky scientists selected by the Destination Mars! corporation, a one-way ticket to Mars - in exchange for a lifetime of research - was an absolute no-brainer. The incredible opportunity was clearly worth even the most absurdly tedious screening process. Perhaps worth following the strange protocols in a nonsensical handbook written by an eccentric billionaire. Possibly even worth their constant surveillance, the video of which is carefully edited into a ratings-bonanza back on Earth.

But it turns out that after a while, even scientists can get bored of science. Tempers begin to fray; unsanctioned affairs blossom. When perfectly good equipment begins to fail, the Marsonauts are faced with a possibility that their training just cannot explain.

Irreverent, poignant, and perfectly weird, David Ebenbach’s exciting debut science-fiction outing, like a mission to Mars, is an incredible trip you will never forget.

Includes bonus story What Lights We Have.

Critic Reviews

“A poignant examination of what it means to be human.” (Kirkus Reviews)

“Ebenbach [portrays] the technical details of base living through a satiric lens...the result is funny, fresh, and winsome.” (Publishers Weekly)
