Should've read this before Project Hail Mary. I can tell this is his first big book. Not a bad thing; I think I would appreciate this book a lot more if I wasn't spoiled with PHM first though. More in-depth explanations which is great but in my opinion to a fault at times. Book is funny though. There's no way NASA wouldn't let this dude die right? They spent a zillion dollars trying to save one dude. It was nice that the MC didn't have any crazy tragic backstory or anything like that. Just a dude on Mars. His solution to problems were clever. Overall, I enjoyed the concept and it was a fun read. Watched the movie right after and damn. I have more appreciation for the book now lol. They skipped so many major plot points.
