Als Ryland Grace erwacht, muss er feststellen, dass er ganz allein ist. Er ist anscheinend der einzige Überlebende einer Raumfahrtmission, Millionen Kilometer von zu Hause entfernt, auf einem Flug ins Tau-Ceti-Sternsystem. Aber was erwartet ihn dort? Und warum sind alle anderen Besatzungsmitglieder tot? Nach und nach dämmert es Grace, dass von seinem Überleben nicht nur die Mission, sondern die Zukunft der gesamten Erdbevölkerung abhängt.
Best book ever.
Project Hail Mary is a very science focused sci-fi novel, which resonates with the science geek in me. But despite having a lot of science, that never takes over from the real story. The scenario is interesting from a philosophical perspective, and the story is interesting and fun from the beginning to the end. This was the book of the year for me, and I can highly recommend it if you like sci-fi.
What a lovely read this was... I tend to read some pretty heavy sprawling-plot sci-fi, and came at this knowing virtually nothing about it other than having seen The Martian in the cinema. As such, I found the small, contained nature of the story (despite the huge consequences in the background) to be thoroughly refreshing. I was smiling throughout and constantly wanting to read on to find out what happened next. I was up 'til 1am last night because I got close to the end and just had to keep going. Excellent.

Gave up. The amnesia/ suddenly remembering stuff as required really bugged me.
If you have enjoyed "the Martian" you will probably enjoy also this one. It was the same style of detailed scientific writing.
Phrases like "It was louder than I thought it would be" are really cool. I mean, he not only imagined something completely new, he also wrote about it as it would already be real.
It was thrilling to tremble with the main character.
Good stuff for an interesting movie as well.

Definitely a worth while read. I'm glad he did not get back to Earth. It's better left to the reader what happened after saving Rocky.

I think this will be the book I recommend the most this year. It is entertaining from beginning to end. If you like sci-fi or space stories, read it. If you don't, read it anyway because you will laugh. It is very rare that I tear through a book in the span of a day, but, and I apologise for the cliché, I could not put this book down.
