The Martian by Andy Weir
369 Pages
Mark Watney is left behind on Mars after a series of events causes his crewmates to believe him dead. The book follows his efforts to stay alive in the hostile environment of the red planet until the next mission is due to arrive, in 4 years.
It is fascinating to read this survival book. Originally Weir published the book for free online and then through popular demand as a Kindle book. It shows how the publishing world is changing rapidly.
