The Martian – Andy Weir
The Martian – Andy Weir – Book 27 of 2015 No 4 of Science Fiction Reading Challenge
One of my resolutions for 2015 was to read more science fiction. It is a genre that I have read and loved in the past I have read the classics by authors like Frank Herbert, Arthur C Clarke and Robert Heinlein along with authors like David Brin and Orson Scott Card, but through the years that amount of SciFi that I read dwindles down to almost nothing. I say almost because I have read several boos by John Scalzi. Anyway, back at the beginning of the year I went looking for new science fiction to read and one book that kept appearing on several of the list of the Best Science Fiction was The Martian Andy Weir’s. The Martian became the 27th book I’ve read in 2015, and the fourth in the science fiction genre. Now I know what everyone has been raving about! The Martian is a terrific read!. It is by far my favorite SciFi read of the year and up there among my favorite overall reads! My current SciFi read Dark Intelligence by Neal Asher is a close second!
