Mysteries of the Red Planet

The book Mysteries of the Red Planet comes with Martian Dreams. It is 24 pages long. In-game, Dr. Spector has written the book. In real-life, Warren Spector has written the book. That Warren Spector's alter ego has written the book is quite amusing.

Description
The book is written from Dr. Spector's perspective and is held in a rather scientific language, containing large amounts of useful information on Mars of the 1890s and how it differs from present-day Mars. Spector does not hide his fascination with the red planet and the strange wonders it contains, giving detailled reports on everything of importance. Reading the book is pretty much essential to unerstanding what is going on and not dying horribly early on.

Book Content
The following topics are part of the book:


 * The terrain of Mars
 * Survival on the planet
 * Creatures of Mars
 * Mystery of the Berries

Other Editions
The book got a cover on simple plain-white paper when the game was re-released by GT Interactive, but stayed the same content-wise. The book also was faithfully translated for the Korean and Chinese (Taiwan) versions of the game.
