Discover the phenomenal Sunday Times Bestselling Novel, a literary sensation that earned its place as a coveted Barack Obama Reading Pick. Prepare for its highly anticipated transformation into a major motion picture, starring the acclaimed Ryan Gosling. This is the captivating story of a lone astronaut, thrust into an impossible mission, who unexpectedly finds an ally beyond imagination. "The most enjoyable hard SF I have read in years," praises the GUARDIAN. BRANDON SANDERSON declares, "Weir's finest work to date. . . This is the one book I read last year that I am certain I can recommend to anyone, no matter who, and know they'll love it." According to GEORGE R.R. MARTIN, "If you like a lot of science in your science fiction, Andy Weir is the writer for you. . . This one has everything fans of old school SF (like me) love." Astronaut TIM PEAKE describes it as "Brilliantly funny and enjoyable. One of the most plausible science fiction books I've ever read." ________________________________________ Meet Ryland Grace, the sole survivor aboard a spacecraft hurtling through the void on humanity's desperate, last-ditch effort to avert extinction. The fate of Earth and every living soul rests squarely on his shoulders, yet he awakens with no memory of this monumental burden. His mind is a blank slate; he cannot recall his own name, the critical nature of his assignment, or the intricate steps required to succeed. All he perceives is the chilling realization that he has been in a profound, extended slumber, now jolted awake millions of miles away from his home planet, with only the silent, lifeless forms of his two crewmates for company. With his crewmates dead and his memories slowly, fuzzily returning in fragmented flashes, Ryland confronts the terrifying reality of an impossible task. Stranded in the vast emptiness of space on this tiny vessel, he must race against time to unravel a baffling scientific mystery and confront an extinction-level threat to our entire species. The clock is ticking down relentlessly, the nearest human being is light-years away, and the terrifying prospect is that he must accomplish this monumental feat entirely alone. Or must he? This is an irresistible interstellar adventure, crafted with the unparalleled imagination of Andy Weir, a tale of discovery, scientific speculation, and sheer survival that brilliantly rivals The Martian, while propelling us to cosmic destinations it never dared to dream of exploring. ________________________________________ ERNEST CLINE, author of Ready Player One and Ready Player Two, hails it as "One of the most original, compelling, and fun voyages I've ever taken." BLAKE CROUCH asserts, "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." THE TIMES loved it, stating, "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." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY calls it "A suspenseful portrait of human ingenuity and resilience [that] builds to an unexpectedly moving ending. A winner." BOOKLIST notes, "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."
