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, he realizes that an impossible task now confronts him. Alone on this tiny ship that’s been cobbled together by every government and space agency on the planet and hurled into the depths of space, it’s up to him to conquer an extinction-level threat to our species.

And thanks to an unexpected ally, he just might have a chance.

Entretenigarria baina soluzionista

ZiFiari normalean bi gauza eskatzen dizkiot, entretenigarria izatea eta bestelako mundu ikuskerak ematea. Liburu honek lehena lortu du baina bigarren alderdian soluzinistegia iruditu zait.

Historia oso entretenigarria egiten da, umore momentu askorekin, eta laguntasun tram politarekin. ZiFi "gogorra" bezala kalifikatu bada ere, parte zientifiko7ingenieritzakoak oso modu erraz eta didaktikoan azalduta daude.

Dilema etiko eta moralak planteatzen baditu ere, hauek bereziki indibidualitatean kokatzen dira, eta eremu kolektiboa gutxi lantzen da. Robinsonismo gehiegi du, hau da dena soluzionatu dezaken gizon txuriaren ikuspegia, beti ere laguntasunean biko kolaborazioan egiten bada ere. Bide bakarraren linea estuak tramari interesa ematen dio, baina soluzionismoa indartuz.

Irakurri, entretenigarria da.

Not a Weir fan

Waking up, attached to strange medical equipment, he realises that he doesn’t know where he is, why he’s there, or who he even is.

The concept is fine, interesting even, but I do not enjoy Weir’s writing style. In fact, I’d forgotten just how much I dislike it in the decade since I read “The Martian”.

I find Weir tediously didactic, he over-explains everything, and so many plot points are so blatantly telegraphed, it makes a mockery of his supposedly intelligent characters. Speaking of which, I really don’t like Weir’s characters, particularly the protagonist.

Ryland Grace is a cardboard cut-out who cracks unfunny “jokes”, and tiresomely describes his every move. Grace’s character is just flat, despite him crying constantly (that’s how we know he is sad), or him being the coolest teacher ever.

Weir is not for me, I shall stop reading Weir.

Review of 'Project Hail Mary' on 'Storygraph'

No rating

Definitely a worth while read. I'm glad he did not get back to Earth. It's better left to the reader what happened after saving Rocky.

Pure entertainment

I think this will be the book I recommend the most this year. It is entertaining from beginning to end. If you like sci-fi or space stories, read it. If you don't, read it anyway because you will laugh. It is very rare that I tear through a book in the span of a day, but, and I apologise for the cliché, I could not put this book down.
