The Red Domes of Acheron: Book One of the Martians' Saga (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798352126127)

Year 2037: more than 60 years after the first uncertain steps of humans on the moon, it is the turn of Mars. A group of men and women set out on an expedition to the Red Planet. This time, however, it is not a flag and footprint mission, but a stay of almost two years in an outpost - the red domes of Acheron - which will become the starting point for the colonization of Mars.
The crew includes two women and three men of different nationalities. Each one of them has his goals and dreams: those who pursue the hope of a Nobel Prize for having discovered the first forms of extraterrestrial life, those who simply want to escape a difficult past and those whose dream is founding a new human civilization on another planet.
A breathtaking landscape, the red plain of Acheron, with its craters and the peaks of the Acheron Montes on the horizon, is the background to a story in which the difficulties and problems created by an extremely hostile environment add up with human and sentimental situations that will lead to an unexpected turn...

The red domes of Acheron tells us the story of the first human expedition to Mars with a lively and exciting cut, bringing together narrative fiction, geopolitical reflection and scientific plausibility. Five astronauts, five different stories, one destination: the Martian plains north of the Acheron range, an ideal site to attempt a landing. What if the worst obstacle to the conquest of the Red Planet will not be found in the depth of space, but in the meanness of some insiders?
