Seis días atrás el astronauta Mark Watney se convirtió en uno de los primeros hombres en caminar por la superficie de Marte. Ahora está seguro de que será el primer hombre en morir allí. La tripulación de la nave en que viajaba se ve obligada a evacuar el planeta a causa de una tormenta de polvo, dejando atrás a Mark tras darlo por muerto. Pero él está vivo, y atrapado a millones de kilómetros de cualquier ser humano, sin posibilidad de enviar señales a la Tierra.
De todos modos, si lograra establecer conexión, moriría mucho antes de que el rescate llegara. Sin embargo, Mark no se da por vencido; armado con su ingenio, sus habilidades y sus conocimientos sobre botánica, se enfrentará a obstáculos aparentemente insuperables. Por suerte, el sentido del humor resultará ser su mayor fuente de fuerza.

Fun and entertaining.
The Martian by Andy Weir was an absolute joy to consume. I'm a space nerd all the way to my molten core and this thing had me on the edge of my seat. Sometimes I was a step ahead of the plot, but much of the time I wasn't. This is was the perfect balance of detail and accurate science to give me a mental picture and a realistic plot to pull me along. Damnit that was a good book.

This book is an absolutely incredible mix of great storytelling and real science. We need much more of this kind of science fiction and a bit less of the trending dystopian kind.
What are you waiting for? Go read this book. Very engrossing, a lot of fun.

Would have wanted to know more about their return trip to Earth.
Yeah, it's that good. I couldn't put it down.

Good story with a funny protagonist.
Was okay, but some of the writing seemed a bit goofy and unrealistic.
