Extractions: im Stanley Robinson has had a remarkable career since he published his first novel, The Wild Shore , 12 years ago. Since then he has averaged slightly less than a book a year (not counting short story collections), and nearly every one has defined its own niche in the science fiction genre. But with the conclusion of his Mars trilogy, Robinson has created what might be one of the grandest literary science fiction epics to date. Together the three novels Red Mars Green Mars and Blue Mars (see our review, this issue) chronicle the colonization and terraformation of Mars over hundreds of years and through dozens of viewpoints. Last week Robinson sat down with Science Fiction Weekly the Mars trilogy to dystopian science fiction. Here's what he had to say: Ian Watts, iwatts@awod.com Many of the things I'm most interested in can be talked about in a new and interesting way by putting them on Mars. I like mountains above tree line, desolate coastlines, deserts, and wilderness generally, and Mars gives you a lot of that. The pictures returned from the Mariner and Viking missions gave us an entirely new wilderness planet, with many stupendous features, and all of it as rocky and bare as I like it. So it was a good landscape, and relatively untouched, in that the earlier Mars science fiction had to work with very little information about the landscape, some of that wrong. Also, the process of terraformation, which Mars is a great candidate for, brings up all the issues of ecology and environmental management that are most pressing for us right now here on Earth. Mars functions as a mesocosm experiment in planetary control, in that it's bigger than a lab but smaller than the Earth's complex biosphere.

Extractions: science fiction author " ...creativity and inspiration for me is not a matter of one big moment of vision (though sometimes that can happen) but more a ceaseless application of effort to matters of detail. " How were you motivated to choose your particular field? What can you share about your creative process? Stories begin for me as images or ideas, often quite vague or fragmentary. Translating those beginnings into finished works of art is a matter of hard work over the long haul. Because I work with words and sentences, I must always focus on that level; not so much the big picture, as making a particular sentence spark an image in the reader's mind. So I often begin before I am ready to begin, and write in ignorance, doing my best sentence by sentence, and then when I've gone through the story once I go back and revise, time after time, and only late in the process does the vision I am trying to convey come into focus. So I would say that creativity and inspiration for me is not a matter of one big moment of vision (though sometimes that can happen) but more a ceaseless application of effort to matters of detail. That too is creativity. What ideas do you have for a future human community on Mars?

Kim Stanley Robinson (born March 23 ) is a writer initially identified as a leading member of the "humanist", or literary, camp of science fiction authors in the , but whose Mars trilogy is a solid example of hard science fiction . His fiction frequently delves into ecological and utopian themes with a political sophistication and point of view rarely seen elsewhere in the field. Robinson's utopias are strikingly different in that the society portrayed is dynamic and subject to flaws and outside pressures, rather than the static perfection displayed in more classic utopias, in which literary values take a back seat to the political argument. His utopian novels include the Three Californias trilogy, which is comprised of the post-disaster novel

He lives in Davis, California. I've been reading Holland's novels since 1968 and they are always deeply satisfying. This new one is about an Irish brother and sister wandering the Viking world after an attack by Vikings destroys their home. I've started it already, and it is filled with Holland's usual intensely exciting and realistic adventure scenes. This time they ballast a fantasy element of far-seeing, a power belonging to a few women in the book. Wonderful. Ken MacLeod is one of the new stars of British science fiction. All his novels published in the US by Tor are greatbursting with a unique mix of adventure and political speculation. The Human Front is a shorter work, published by a small press, PS Press, in 2001. It appears to be an alternative history in which Stalin lived well into the Sixties and everything changes, while remaining eerily familiar. Looks good.

Extractions: Kim Stanley Robinson was born in 1952. A native Californian, Robinson travelled and worked in different parts of the world (including Washington, DC and some time in Switzerland with his wife, Lisa, an environmental chemist). He has settled in California. His work has garnered many awards including the Nebula Award ("The Blind Geometer" and Red Mars ), the Asimov, John W.Campbell, Locus, and World Fantasy Awards ("Black Air") and the Hugo Award ( Green Mars ). As well, he was nominated for both the Hugo Award and Nebula Award for his novel The Wild Shore In 2047, it has been sixty years since America was quarantined after a devastating nuclear attack. Henry, at 17, wants to help make America like it was before all the bombs went off. But, for the people of Onofre Valley, on the coast of California, just surviving is enough of a challenge. Living simply on what the sea and land can provide, they strive to preserve what knowledge and skills they can in a society without mass communications. Then one day Henry meets two men who say they represent the new American resistance. 21st century Orange County, CA is full of designer drugs, freeways that glide and soar. It's a mass-culture, video-saturated world for Jim McPherson who is adrift in society. He lives his life through dreams of the past. Dennis, his dad, is an aerospace engineer involved in military research, a fact that Jim ignores until he becomes a minor urban terrorist out of boredom. Father and son, separate for so long, are finally on a collision course.
