A good introduction to the Terraforming Mars world-setting without bogging down the reader with game lore. A strong narrative with relatable and enjoyable characters. Good mystery to the plot and a well-rounded story that offers closure while leaving enough threads to be picked up should the series continue."</i>--Inquisitor Jenn<br><br><i>"How can a mere earthling say no to an armchair trip to the red planet. Who has that kind of restraint? And why would you want to? It's a dream destination."</i>--Bandit on Goodread<br><br><i>"I came away from this book wanting to learn more, to discover more about the kinds of people that would make their homes on Mars, the corporations that would try to alter it and the science they use, and to spend more time on this strangely beautiful world. I can't wait to see what else gets made in this franchise."</i>--Trans-Scribe<br><br><i>"In the Shadow of Deimos is a fantastic tale for anyone who is looking for a fix of Terraforming Mars without the time to play the game or a good sci-fi story about survival not only of a new and harsh environment but the corruption of those in power."</i>--What You Tolkien About<br>
