Our reviews of Andy Weir's work
The Martian
by Andy Weir
The Martian by Andy Weir 2014 review. Mark Watney is presumed dead and abandoned on Mars. He is not dead. Now he has to figure out how to stay alive until rescue can arrive. The hard-SF problem-solving novel that defined the 2010s popular-science-fiction register.
Project Hail Mary
by Andy Weir
Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir 2021 review. A junior-high science teacher wakes alone on a deep-space craft with no memory. Andy Weir's third novel and the canonical contemporary hard science fiction novel about a single problem solved correctly.
