Massive fan of The Martian and Weirs follow up called 'Project Hail Mary'. It leans a little more in the direction of Science Fiction than the Martian did, but it's an absolute page turner from front to back.
Wow you're fast! Just looked it up and that looks like an awesome book. Going to have to read that one. Thanks!
It's also an excellent audiobook, gives it another layer
Ohh interesting! I am not really an audio book guy though, whenever i read i'm listening to music.
You might like audio books then, hits the audio side of the brain
This is how I "read" the book. It was fantastic and my wife at first just didn't care if I listened to it. But quickly started looking forward to listening to it with me. Great book.
It's a really fun audiobook, if that's your thing!
The way they did the alien speech in the audiobook was really neat
I keep hearing that the audiobook is amazing, but it's a fantastic book either way. A true spiritual successor to The Martian.
Listening to Project Hail Mary for the 3rd time excellent book. Great characters and the build up is excellent.
How do you feel about the ending?
I love project hail merry the ending was excellent
I found it to be excellent especially since we learn how Grace ended up on this mission. He redeem himself.
@Fredselfish @Seraph "Red, White & Royal Blue" by Casey McQuiston is a romantic novel. Find out how two friends were forced to fake a friendship for political reasons, but their feelings deepened into a secret romance that challenges their lives and the world's perception. https://bit.ly/445UfVI
