“Peace Lord of the Red Planet” by Steven H. Wilson

Phil Giunta

Phil Giunta recommends this book

This is clearly a well planned story with excellent plot and character development. I can’t actually pin it down to being solely a SF tale, as it has many shades of Fantasy as well. It was interesting to watch the main character’s strict religious beliefs slowly peel away as he was confronted with, and later reluctantly (at first) integrated into, a wildly different society with “shocking” beliefs. Excellent storytelling and pacing as well. All around great work!
