Rebels of the Red Planet


Read by Mark Nelson

(4.5 stars; 591 reviews)

Dark Kensington had been dead for twenty-five years. It was a fact; everyone knew it. Then suddenly he reappeared, youthful, brilliant, ready to take over the Phoenix, the rebel group that worked to overthrow the tyranny that gripped the settlers on Mars.

The Phoenix had been destroyed not once, not twice, but three times! But this time the resurrected Dark had new plans, plans which involved dangerous experiments in mutation and psionics.

And now the rebels realized they were in double jeopardy. Not only from the government's desperate hatred of their movement, but also from the growing possibility that the new breed of mutated monsters would get out of hand and bring terrors never before known to man. (Summary from Project Gutenberg text) (5 hr 8 min)

Rebels of the Red Planet


(5 stars)

Another excellent reading by Mark Nelson. Some elements in this story reminded me of the first "Total Recall" movie.

Left Questions


(3 stars)

This was more action adventure than science fiction, with some mystery and romance...unfortunately, it leaves the listener with questions, and no sequel...Mark D. Nelson is Superb

Rebel review


(4 stars)

Over all a good story, and well read. The ending was dissapointingly abrupt however.

interesting sci-fi, poor romance


(3 stars)

This book had some fun and original sci-fi. It even had some disturbing mutants. but the character writing and romance was poor. One character falls in love with another over a few hours and instantly reverses a life time of ideology and prior commitments suddenly for the other character. There were also some earned and good reveals but others that felt unearned and too convenient.

Another fine tale well read


(4 stars)

This is a good story, well paced and a good length. I was concerned I was going to dislike it as one of the key characters is quite obnoxious but press on like I did and you'll find much to enjoy and a good resolution

Thanks Mark


(3 stars)

I would have never finished this one if it weren't for Marks excellent reading and giving character to an otherwise "meh" story about mutants and psychics on mars. Many holes.

Good story great reader


(4 stars)

Book isn’t great but it was good. Worth a listen. Definitely could be longer or have a sequel. Had some really good chapters and some flops.


(4 stars)

finally Libravox has used a good reader, & not shared the reading of the novel between non fluent and incoherent readers
