from the Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning author of Children of Time . WELCOME TO HELL CITY
MARS Jimmy Martin has a sore head. He's used to smuggling illegal data in his headspace. But
this is the first time it has started talking to him. The data claims to be a distinguished

- and works with them everyday in Hell City building the future staking mankind's claim to a
new world: Mars. The problem is that humanity isn't the only entity with designs on the Red
