With the tension of a launch-pad countdown and the intrigue of an international spy thriller, Mars One is an explosive debut novel that’s out of this world. I genuinely felt I’d left earth behind and was heading towards Mars with the characters… that’s the litmus test of great writing. Charlotte Robinson is one to watch.

This gripping near-future thriller is an impressive debut. It’s beautifully and propulsively written…a brilliant novel that includes a little bit of everything, and does it well.

This explosive debut skillfully blends an edge-of-the-seat space adventure with a conspiracy thriller on Earth - especially timely with the world recently having been gripped by the Artemis II Moon mission. Propulsive and epic in scope, Mars One is hugely enjoyable and marks the author as one to watch.

Epic in scope and wildly entertaining, Mars One is a rocket-fuelled debut that kept me glued to the pages and constantly guessing. Perfect for fans of The Martian and Gravity , I absolutely loved it!

Mars One is a brilliant new addition to the ‘don’t go to Mars’ genre spawned by Andy Weir’s The Martian . Part LeCarré, part Armageddon it’s one of those books that manages to range all over the map and never lose pace or sight of the story. Deftly written, tightly plotted, the perfect book to read on holiday whilst congratulating yourself with every page that you did not book a ticket on a rocket to anywhere.

When disaster does strike, Mars One becomes a unique locked room murder mystery in a small capsule hurtling through space, in addition to a tense thriller and an examination of how humans manage to cope with unbelievable stress.

Charlotte Robinson’s debut novel is an action-packed thriller that puts human interactions, emotions and relationships at its heart.

More please Charlotte Robinson... everything I want from a book.

This break-neck thriller... asks its audience if the price of progress is truly worth it.
