When a dust storm forces his crew to evacuate the planet while thinking him dead, astronaut Mark Watney finds himself stranded on Mars's surface, completely alone.
Armed with nothing but his ingenuity, his engineering skills— and a gallows sense of humor that proves to be his greatest source of strength—Mark embarks on a dogged quest to stay alive. But will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him? --back cover
Ciència ficció amb gran dosi de comèdia, ben trenada i -ni que sigui per un cop- bastant curosa a nivell científic. Evidentment hi ha ficció, però la part de ciència que «controlem actualment» no s'exagera, ni es porta a l'extrem i es fonamenta de forma prou digna. Un molt bon entreteniment, que et fa riure molt i et captura des del moment inicial.
Obwohl ich den Film schon kannte und wusste was passiert war das Hörbuch doch bin zum Ende spannend und fesselnd.
And probably at least semi realistic? Didn't like it as much as Project Hail Mary by the same author. This sorta read as a sequence of "oh crap, another thing went wrong" problems, followed by solutions. I'm certain this is realistic - or even still overly optimistic, given what they were surviving through - but kinda made for an overly long, repetitive narrative. I suspect this is part of why they cut some of these out of the movie (and to save time, but also it got repetitive). Nevertheless, a fun read if you enjoy sci-fi that sticks close to contemporary science.
Divertido e nerdy, adorei!
读完这本书是几年以前的事了，我记得我是在Kindle上读的，也记得读到(.Y.)时的大笑不止。主角乐观幽默的性格让整个旅程都相当有趣。
