The Cowboy and the Vampire by Clark Hays6/12/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() When Crucial, who is on the labor security force on Earth, travels to Mars to find out what happened to his sister, he falls headlong into more trouble than he ever bargained for, which is a lot because he is always in some sort of jam. In Gates of Mars, Earth is blighted from years of plague and climate change, and the super rich and highly influential Five Families have taken over pretty much everything and everyone, on both Earth and Mars. Existence on Earth is in the proverbial hand basket, and building a society on Mars is no longer that far-fetched. The entire world building is exciting and well thought out, providing a fabulous backdrop that really is not that unbelievable. The story takes place in the year 2187 and flips back and forth between Crucial’s debrief/interrogation with AI-based Halo and the madcap events that happened on Mars a few weeks prior. ![]() Even if you are not a fan of Sci-Fi, Gates of Mars will still grab your attention because the human element is identifiable and all too timely in today’s global landscape.Ĭrucial Larsen lives on Earth, and his little sister Essential lives on Mars but has recently gone missing. Science Fiction at its finest, Gates of Mars by Kathleen McFall and Clark Hays is chock full of entertainment, mystery, suspense, and a high dose of humor mixed with the sobering truth of the societal imbalance between the mega rich and the poorest of the poor. ![]()
