What Members Thought
While not as good as The Illustrated Man, this collection of stories is still vintage Bradbury in all his unique coolness. He manages to write a plethora of stories told from as many different points of view, and turns them into one comprehensive story about Martians, man, and the men who became Martians in their own turn. This is a must-read for any lover of the good, old fashioned science fiction that existed before it was run over by cliche and over-exposure to popular culture.
The Martian Chronicles is a chronological set of short stories with overlapping characters. A beautiful example of curiosity, trust, and hope from both the humans and martians.
Loved "Martian Chronicles". Now my joint second favourite from Bradbury along with "Something Wicked ...".
