How to Wake a Planet — Scavinold

Mars is an established colony. Earth is rebounding from an unprecedented natural disaster. Eighty years have passed since anyone has traveled between the two worlds, and so much has changed. A diplomatic mission from Earth aims to re-spark the commitment between the two planets. But cultures, philosophies, spiritual beliefs, and all the everyday things we never include in our intentions, good or bad, will decide the day. How to Wake a Planet is Scavinold's tribute to classic Sci-fi, and illumination of trends already in effect for our near future. Mars worms. AI Government. Earth religious beliefs altered beyond recognition. Insects. The undaunted creativity of youth. A deep and compelling journey for all ages.
