NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING RYAN GOSLING
A lone astronaut.
An impossible mission.
An ally he never imagined.
'The most enjoyable hard SF I have read in years' GUARDIAN

________________________________________
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the earth itself will perish.
Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it.
All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.
His crewmates dead, his memories fuzzily returning, Ryland realizes that an impossible task now confronts him. Hurtling through space on this tiny ship, it's up to him to puzzle out an impossible scientific mystery-and conquer an extinction-level threat to our species.
And with the clock ticking down and the nearest human being light-years away, he's got to do it all alone.
Or does he?
An irresistible interstellar adventure as only Andy Weir could imagine it, Project Hail Mary is a tale of discovery, speculation, and survival to rival The Martian -- while taking us to places it never dreamed of going.

'One of the most original, compelling, and fun voyages I've ever taken.' ERNEST CLINE, author of Ready Player One and Ready Player Two
'Undisputedly the best book I've read in a very, very long time. Mark my words: Project Hail Mary is destined to become a classic.' BLAKE CROUCH
'Andy Weir's brilliant Project Hail Mary...is one of those stirring sci-fi novels about every government on Earth banding together, through science, to save civilisation from collapse. I loved it.' THE TIMES
'A suspenseful portrait of human ingenuity and resilience [that] builds to an unexpectedly moving ending. A winner.' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
'Weir returns with gusto . . . his writing flows naturally, and his characters and dialogue crackle with energy. With this novel, he takes his place as a genuine star in the mainstream SF world.' BOOKLIST

Am I turning into a sci-fi girly?
Me enjoying and actually loving a sci-fi book was definitely NOT on my bingo card this year. "Project Hail Mary" by Andy Weir starts with a disorientated protagonist. Ryland Grace, our main character, awakes in a space unknown to him. He doesn't remember who he is, where he is and how he got to where he is. Slowly but steadily, Ryland and we learn all these questions, and everything starts to make sense. I don't want to say more about the plot because I also dove in blindly, and it actually made me enjoy the book even more. What I do want to say is that this is an amazing book. I'm not big on sci-fi or fantasy, but this book changed my mind. It was funny, it was interesting, it was thrilling and it was sad. It had everything that made me want to read more. I read it together with a very good friend of mine, and that made the experience even more pleasurable. If you are not into sci-fi, read this book! If you love sci-fi, read this book! If you are looking for the next book for your book club, look no further; read this book! Under any circumstances, read this book! -

Another masterpiece by Andy Weir
Ryland Grace wakes up alone and without any memories to his previous life. Bit for bit the reader and the protagonist find out where he is and what happened to get him on board of a spaceship on an apparent suicide mission to save the Earth. The story is told in two narratives - on Earth in the past and on board of the „Hail Mary“ in the present. Like Mark Watney in „The Martian“ Ryland Grace is a lone astronaut who tries to solve his problems with lots of humour and especially lots of scientific knowledge. And like „The Martian“ „Project Hail Mary“ is a wonderfully written and extremely exciting Science-Fiction novel. My favourite book of 2021!
