Shores of a New Horizon Summary

Shores of a New Horizon: A Terraforming Mars Novel by M Darusha Wehm

After a century of struggle, the terraforming of Mars was intended to bring peace and prosperity to the colonists of the Red Planet, but while the planet may be livable, humans bring their own chaos

On Mars, terraforming breakthroughs leave citizens dreaming of a transformed planet. However, when a contaminated ice asteroid puts water supplies in peril, the dream quickly shatters. Professor Zambrotta Zammi Kaspar is tasked to investigate a fatal crash on a remote ice asteroid, but he never expects to discover his missing sister there as an indentured worker for the Mining Guild. As the siblings reconnect and dig deeper into the mystery of the contaminated water, they both discover a personal legacy of secrets and loss over competing visions for the future of humanity. Can they unite to reveal the truth behind the water contamination before their dream of a terraformed Mars evaporates into the newly formed atmosphere?

Shores of a New Horizon Reviews

"At its heart, it's a story about family and trust, twisted together with tiny details that make this near-future world feel as real and lived-in as a small town" -- Kara Dennison, on Shores of a New Horizon
"From the first chapter I was hooked. Wehns writing is fantastic and really evokes the dangerous and limited setting of the space colonies" -- A Reader Lives a Thousand Lives, on Shores of a New Horizon
Shores of a New Horizonis a thrilling and hugely entertaining road trip through a future-Mars undergoing a terraforming transformation. Wehm deftly weaves together technology and science, corporate intrigue, family drama, daring detective work, a gripping a heist, and a satisfying sense of humor as we follow two estranged siblings through the domed cities and bumpy backroads of the Red Planet. Its the kind of science fiction story that makes you want to travel the solar system, and maybe even ride a rover to Valles Marineris. -- MARIA HASKINS, author and translator
