A real page turner. Admittedly not as good as The Martian or Project Hail Mary, but still a very engaging story. I don't know why, but Weir's style of writing really clicks with me. I didn't need to re-read sentences several times like I sometimes have to do with other authors that want to write things in a clever way. I prefer the language to be clear and the story intricate; not the other way around.
