    • 4/5
      Wonderful to read an 84-year-old SFnal representation of *truly* alien consciousnesses, explicitly made to be so by the author. It was hokey to have a Mars setting, but 84 years ago not quite as hokey as it would be today.Tweel's character is a hoot. I would love to meet this boop-snoot! And there's a twist at the end of the story that sums up humanity and colonialism right tidily. *sigh*
    • 5/5
      It was written in 1934, but it still rings with adventure in the 21st century. Arthur C Clarke himself said it was the only story he ever read that he wanted to immediately read again, to see how the author was able to set up a really engaging story so quickly.
    • 5/5
      The title story is a wonderful and well-told story about a stranded astronaut's hike across Mars (which makes it sound far more grim then it is). It features such casual marvels as an accurate view of the sky long before photos from Mars' surface existed. It is also a good first contact story with genuinely alien aliens. Highly recommended.
