MY HONEST REVIEW OF Mars at Midnight
Life on Mars is
not perfect. The rich use the poor for menial jobs, or as their servants. When
a young girl is found dead in the desert dunes, it’s up to Detective Ace Sloan
to solve the murder. When he connects the case to another death, he discovers a
hidden agenda that will further separate the affluent and the lower ranked
people of Mars.
I really liked
the character of Ace Sloan. He brought depth to the story. It’s sad to think
that prejudice would follow humanity all the way to another planet, but I guess
that’s just human nature. The description of the Mars environment had me
imagining how it would truly look with humans living there. I’m not sure I would
like it myself.
