A review by martindale
The Terraformers by Annalee Newitz

1.0

I don’t know, man. I loved Newitz’s non fiction, Four Lost Cities, but this lost the plot for me. Going so far in the future but being so clearly beholden to early 21st century Twitter-discourse-level ideology about urbanism, capitalism, gender, environmentalism. In its attempts to be utopian, it failed to actually conceive of a believable world with believable characters.
