Finding out if that is the case or not is really the only reason I am considering Blue Mars in the future, but 761 pages is more than I want to try right now even though it might be a faster moving book given the setup at the end of this one.
The attempt read Red Mars knocked me down quite a bit this last month. And I can't see myself trying to read Green or Blue. The problem for me isn't the science or the overall situation, but the nearly total lack of characters I care about.

(but this probably belongs in the book club discussion thread.)
