The last voyage

Book • 1889
Brian McLaren's 'The Last Voyage' is a thought-provoking exploration of humanity's potential future as it grapples with environmental collapse and societal disintegration.

Set in a time where Earth's sustainability is threatened, the novel follows a mission to establish a colony on Mars.

This endeavor, however, faces not only technological hurdles but also profound human challenges, testing the colonists' resilience and ability to cooperate.

McLaren delves into the ethical and philosophical dimensions of seeking a new beginning while confronting the consequences of past actions.

The book ultimately questions what it truly means to be human and the importance of learning from history to build a better future.
