Inhaltsangabe

The Audible Original is now available in ebook and paperback!

Living and slaving in Fill City One, you get used to the smell. We call it the Everpresent Stink. But every once in a while, on a spring day with a breeze, it clears away enough to remind us that there is something more out there. Most Fillers' wildest dreams would be just to get past the walls and live in the mainland. But my dream? It's a little bigger.   

I'm going to Mars.   

Well, I'm only going to Mars if I can find a winning Red Scarab to get on Zach Larson's crazy reality show. And then I'll have to figure out how to escape this hellhole. And then compete on live television for three months. And somehow win a spot on the crew of the very first manned mission to Mars. Oh, and one more slight obstacle? There might be a reason that by 2085 a human still hasn't set foot on the Red Planet. A dangerous reason. A reason worth killing for.   

In You're Going to Mars! Rob Dircks, Audible best-selling author of Where the Hell Is Tesla?, creates a near-future filled with family (the good kind and the insufferable kind), pop divas, mobsters, and the world's first trillionaire - and sends them all on a science fiction odyssey/comedy/love story/adventure that will change their world forever.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Rob Dircks is the #1 Audible bestselling author of You're Going to Mars!, the Where the Hell is Tesla? trilogy, The Wrong Unit, and more (including the anti-self-help book Unleash the Sloth!). He narrates most of his own work, garnering praise from Audible for his work and performances in their "All-Time Favorites" list, alongside some of his heroes: Neil Gaiman, Kurt Vonnegut, Peter Clines, Philip K. Dick, Margaret Atwood, and Nick Harkaway. He's also got a drawerful of ideas and half-finished stories, some of which appear on his original audio sci-fi short story podcast, Listen To The Signal, which he also narrates.A member of SFWA (Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America), Rob is a big fan of classic science fiction, and loves the absurdity and strange draw of science-fiction-centric conspiracy theories like UFOs, Tesla's secret notebooks, supernatural phenomena, and classified tech.When not writing, Rob's helping other authors publish their own work with Goldfinch Publishing, writing and designing for the award-winning ad agency he owns with his brother (aptly titled Dircks Associates), and generally doing what he calls "sampling": video production, audio production, light programming, photography, guitar, reading, cooking. He lives in New York with his wife and two kids.
