Mark Watney a été l un des premiers humains à poser le pied sur Mars. À présent, il est persuadé d être le premier à y mourir. Lorsqu'une tempête de sable mortelle force ses coéquipiers à évacuer la planète, Mark se retrouve seul et sans ressources. Pourtant Mark n est pas prêt à baisser les bras. Ingénieux, habile de ses mains et surtout très têtu, il affronte les problèmes en apparence insurmontables un par un. Isolé et aux abois, parviendra-t-il à survivre en faisant mentir les statistiques ?
Really good 👍
I have no idea why I didn’t read this book earlier. It is a fantastic story that kept me reading until I was done (a day and a half!).
I’ve always wanted to take a trip into space, but certainly not if it ends up like Mark’s.
And probably at least semi realistic? Didn't like it as much as Project Hail Mary by the same author. This sorta read as a sequence of "oh crap, another thing went wrong" problems, followed by solutions. I'm certain this is realistic - or even still overly optimistic, given what they were surviving through - but kinda made for an overly long, repetitive narrative. I suspect this is part of why they cut some of these out of the movie (and to save time, but also it got repetitive). Nevertheless, a fun read if you enjoy sci-fi that sticks close to contemporary science.
读完这本书是几年以前的事了,我记得我是在Kindle上读的,也记得读到(.Y.)时的大笑不止。主角乐观幽默的性格让整个旅程都相当有趣。
Really intriguing tech short story. Read it twice.
