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.

The book is written from Dr. Spector's perspective and is rather scientific, containing large amounts of information on Mars of the 1890s. Spector does not hide his fascination with the red planet and the wonders it contains, giving detailled reports on everything of importance. Reading it is pretty much essential to unerstand what is going on.

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.
