Project Hail Mary

Andy Weir is good at writing one scenario and one character. This book is that scenario and that character. And it's very good.

Add in a couple more characters than in the Martian, and a plot device that makes the story progress in 2 parallel tracks that are both entertaining and engaging, and the book is a pleasure to read! If you havent read The Martian this book will be incredible for you. If you have you'll recognise a lot of elements but you'll enjoy it just as much!

Also, Rocky is awesome :D
