The Martian

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE

A mission to Mars. A freak accident. One man’s fight to survive. From the author of Project Hail Mary comes a gripping, high-stakes sci-fi thriller hailed as “a hugely entertaining novel that reads like a rocket ship afire” (Chicago Tribune).

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first humans to walk on Mars. Now he’s certain he’ll be the first to die there. After a violent dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate, Mark is left stranded and presumed dead, with no way to signal Earth—and even if he could, his supplies would run out long before help could arrive.

Between failing machinery, an unforgiving planet, and simple human error, survival seems impossible. But Mark isn’t ready to quit. Using engineering skill, ingenuity, and pure stubborn determination, he tackles one life-threatening challenge after another. The odds are impossible—but so is Mark’s refusal to give up.

NAMED ONE OF PASTE’S BEST NOVELS OF THE DECADE
“As gripping as they come . . . You’ll be rooting for Watney the whole way, groaning at every setback and laughing at his pitch-black humor. Utterly nail-biting and memorable.” — Financial Times
