Seller's Description:
Near Fine. Book. Signed by Author(s) Later printing, SIGNED by the author on the title page. This book is square, solid, and unread, and in a protective archival bag. When this humdinger arrives at your door, you'll feel as though you've gotten drunk on dandelion wine and you're burning a wicked midnight fever of 451 after receiving an illustrated missive from Mars, all on October 31st! NOTE: Light general age-toning and very minimal edge-wear. From the collection of Southern California collector Bill Wilson. ALSO INCLUDED: A Ticket To Mars, printed on stiff card-stock in seven colors and futuristic design and font to really create the sense of what such a ticket might look like-very retro-Disney's Tomorrowland! Distance of Journey in kilometers, Days in Open Space, Legal Name, Departure Date, Travelling Class. it's all here. A very sharp and collectible item to pair with this book!
I did not take to the style of the book, where so many people from earth are transported to Mars to establish settlements, once the defensive Martians had succumbed to chicken pox, for which their bodies had no natural defences. Bradbury uses a series of short stories to make political and social comment. Not an entertaining read, and needed self motivation to complete. Not one of my more enjoyable reads.

I got what I wanted !
The Martian Chronicles are not for everybody. But if you're a fan of audio theater, and/or a fan of Science fiction and Ray Bradbury, then this is for you !
I was familiar with this piece of work so I knew what I was getting into - I got what I wanted.
Otherwise, the package was in perfect shape, and the CDs in NEW condition as advertised...

A fine book for sci-fi fans and serious readers alike. Ray Bradbury is always a great read.

Martian Chronicles cassettes
This arrived very quickly from the seller. No problems at all. They were enjoyable. I listened while I was on the tread-mill. Would buy from the seller again certainly.
