Why it endured
A lone astronaut wakes up millions of miles from Earth with no memory of how he got there. His mission: save the planet. Weir's most inventive and emotionally satisfying novel.

“Nerdy, quirky and fun! The characteristic Andy Weir - style enthusiasm and glee over science permeates the plot. The challenges of the plot are met by one of the most unique and entertaining partner duos I've seen. The book doesn't shy away from a technically elaborate, interesting and engaging portrayal of an alien species. 4/5”
