About the Book

Derek Jacobi and Hayley Atwell lead an all-star cast in The Martian Chronicles, a thrilling new dramatisation, reimagining Ray Bradburys timeless fable of doomed Martian colonisation. When the first expedition to Mars mysteriously disappears, Earth sends a second to find out what happened. But the real mission is classified. And only Captain Wilder knows the truth...Spender, an anthropologist on Wilders crew, attempts to prevent the colonisation that she believes will eradicate the last of an ancient people living on Mars. But to what lengths will she go? As the honourable but duty-bound Captain Wilder tracks the now rogue Spender into the Martian mountains, the future of this ancient planet is at stake. Meanwhile, Earth itself teeters on the brink of its own global catastrophe as the very survival of humanity hangs in the balance. Also includes a special behind-the-scenes mini-documentary with interviews from the stars, plus six special teasers examining the Martian culture! This new audio version of the Ray Bradbury Sci-Fi classic recently won the Silver Award for Best Drama Special at the 215 New York Festivals International Radio Program Awards.Derek Jacobi is one of the legends of British TV and film, best known for starring in I, Claudius (1976), the first Master when Doctor Who returned in 25, and is busy on screens at present in Vicious and Last Tango in Halifax. Hayley Atwell is best known now as Peggy Carter, in US action series Agent Carter, but there have been notable earlier roles in Black Mirror, The Prisoner and The Sweeney.

About the Author

In a career spanning more than seventy years, Ray Bradbury, who died on June 5, 2011 at the age of 91, inspired generations of readers to dream, think, and create. A prolific author of hundreds of short stories and close to fifty books, as well as numerous poems, essays, operas, plays, teleplays, and screenplays, Bradbury was one of the most celebrated writers of our time. His groundbreaking works include Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles, The Illustrated Man, Dandelion Wine, and Something Wicked This Way Comes. He wrote the screen play for John Hustons classic film adaptation of Moby Dick, and was nominated for an Academy Award. He adapted sixty-five of his stories for televisions The Ray Bradbury Theater, and won an Emmy for his teleplay of The Halloween Tree. He was the recipient of the 2000 National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters, the 2004 National Medal of Arts, and the 2007 Pulitzer Prize Special Citation, among many honours. Throughout his life, Bradbury liked to recount the story of meeting a carnival magician, Mr. Electrico, in 1932. At the end of his performance Electrico reached out to the twelve-year-old Bradbury, touched the boy with his sword, and commanded, Live forever. Bradbury later said,I decided that was the greatest idea I had ever heard. I started writing every day. I never stopped.
