#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE

A mission to Mars. A freak accident. One man s struggle to survive. From the author of Project Hail Mary comes a hugely entertaining novel that reads like a rocket ship afire (Chicago Tribune).

Brilliant . . . a celebration of human ingenuity [and] the purest example of real-science sci-fi for many years . . . utterly compelling. The Wall Street Journal

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars.

Now, he s sure he ll be the first person to die there.

After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he s alive and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive.

Chances are, though, he won t have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old human error are much more likely to kill him first.

But Mark isn t ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him?

NAMED ONE OF PASTE S BEST NOVELS OF THE DECADE

A hugely entertaining novel [that] reads like a rocket ship afire . . . Weir has fashioned in Mark Watney one of the most appealing, funny, and resourceful characters in recent fiction. Chicago Tribune

As gripping as they come . . . You ll be rooting for Watney the whole way, groaning at every setback and laughing at his pitchblack humor. Utterly nail-biting and memorable. Financial Times

Portrait

Andy Weir

Andy Weir built a career as a software engineer until the success of his first published novel, The Martian, allowed him to live out his dream of writing fulltime. He is a lifelong space nerd and a devoted hobbyist of subjects such as relativistic physics, orbital mechanics, and the history of manned spaceflight. He also mixes a mean cocktail. He lives in California.

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

Terrific stuff, a crackling good read that devotees of space travel will devour like candy . . . succeeds on several levels and for a variety of reasons, not least of which is its surprising plausibility. USA Today

An impressively geeky debut . . . the technical details keep the story relentlessly precise and the suspense ramped up. And really, how can anyone not root for a regular dude to prove the U-S-A still has the Right Stuff? --Entertainment Weekly

Gripping . . . [features] a hero who can solve almost every problem while still being hilarious. It s hard not to be swept up in [Weir s] vision and root for every one of these characters. Grade: A. The AV Club

Andy Weir delivers with The Martian . . . a story for readers who enjoy thrillers, science fiction, non-fiction, or flat-out adventure [and] an authentic portrayal of the future of space travel. Associated Press

A gripping tale of survival in space [that] harkens back to the early days of science fiction by masters such as Robert Heinlein, Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke. San Jose Mercury News

One of the best thrillers I ve read in a long time. It feels so real it could almost be nonfiction, and yet it has the narrative drive and power of a rocket launch. This is Apollo 13 times ten. Douglas Preston, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Impact and Blasphemy

A book I just couldn t put down! It has the very rare combination of a good, original story, interestingly real characters and fascinating technical accuracy . . . reads like MacGyver meets Mysterious Island. Astronaut Chris Hadfield, Commander of the International Space Station and author of An Astronaut s Guide to Life on Earth

An exciting, insightful science-based tale [that] kept me turning the pages to see what ingenious solution our hero would concoct to survive yet another impossible dilemma. Terry Brooks, New York Times bestselling author of The Sword of Shannara

The best book I've read in ages. Clear your schedule before you crack the seal. This story will take your breath away faster than a hull breech. Smart, funny, and white-knuckle intense, The Martian is everything you want from a novel. Hugh Howey, New York Times bestselling author of Wool

The Martian kicked my ass! Weir has crafted a relentlessly entertaining and inventive survival thriller, a MacGyver-trapped-on-Mars tale that feels just as real and harrowing as the true story of Apollo 13. Ernest Cline, New York Times bestselling author of Ready Player One
