First Grave on Mars

Yikes! I didn't know what I'd be getting into with this one, but I was on the edge of my seat to crack the who-dun-it. A classic murder mystery set on Mars, with a dystopic spin. I have a policy of reviewing books I liked at 5 stars and not reviewing books I don't like. I just see no reason to depress an author's work just because it didn't suit me. I will say the ending was not to my liking (left me feeling confused) and felt anti-climactic. I also felt the continued reference to “psychology training” was a bit overdone. Let actions speak for themselves, eh? But overall the story was fast-paced and engrossing. Read straight through breakfast and lunch! If you like a classic mystery with a sci-fi twist, here it is!
