The Mars House

We're talking total Pulley. 100% Pulley. Pulley writing magic lavished on a totally Pulley plot. I've never known anybody to pack so many ideas so elegantly into a novel. Brilliant as usual, but - more importantly - pure Pulley - STUART TURTON, Costa Book Award-winning author of million-copy bestseller The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

Few writers combine such warmth and heart with such consummate skill as Natasha Pulley... Reading her is both a joyful and profound experience - and The Mars House is her most daring, ambitious, and exciting book yet' - CATRIONA WARD, Sunday Times-bestselling author of The Last House on Needless Street

Simply unputdownable - hilarious, ingenious, and full of warmth, The Mars House asks important questions about what it means to be human, and doesn't shy away from nuanced conversations about immigration, climate breakdown, and augmented reality. Plus it has talking mammoths and a very clever twist. What's not to love? - THOMAS D. LEE, Sunday Times-bestselling author of Perilous Times

This is a book about language, how new society subcultures form, gender, mammoths, and space... I want to live inside Natasha Pulley's brain - and I would happily read a thousand more pages set on Mars. The incredible arranged marriage queer romance was just an added bonus. Book of the year for me - LAUREN JAMES, Carnegie-shortlisted author of The Quiet at the End of the World

I really admire Natasha's work and this book is my favourite yet. The world is compelling and exquisitely-drawn. The characters are loveable and complex. It was charming and funny and perfectly-paced. I'm really excited for other people to read it - TEMI OH, Diverse Book Award-shortlisted author of Do You Dream of Terra-Two? and More Perfect

Now. Natasha Pulley is already a hard favourite of mine. She's so clever and has an imagination that's so vast that it's just not fair on the rest of us mere mortals. But this new one is a work of staggering genius beyond even the others - IMRAN MAHMOOD, CWA Gold Dagger and Theakstons-longlisted author of Netflix smash hit You Don t Know Me

Natasha Pulley is in a class of her own - The Mars House is a tour de force, melding extra-terrestrial colonisation, inter-planetary politics, ballet and mammoths with her uniquely witty style. An early contender for the best book of 2024! - CAILEAN STEED, Pen to Print Award-winning author of Home

Already one of my favorite books of the year ... There's palace intrigue, a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers plot, sassy footnotes, and also there are mammoths! It's a total delight from start to finish - LITERARY HUB, Lit Hub s Most Anticipated Books of 2024
