Just finished "Project Hail Mary", by Andy Weir (2021, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Hail_Mary); I've liked it, haven't read nor watched "The Martian"; btw, if I can say something about I was often comparing it to "Red Planet Blues", because Weir's writing seemed a bit like being wrote to be fine as a plot for a movie: when I was reading Sawier's book I was thinking on how that plot was so fast in a timeline that it can't fit on a film script... This was just to say that -imho- visualizing a novel while reading may be enjoyable even when it can't really fit movies.

Now on"Fiasco", by Stanisław Lem (1986).. I'm liking the philosophical trips it takes once and then .
I'd give the Martian a try, I enjoyed it more than Project Hail Mary.

Agreed. I found Project Hail Mary a bit of a letdown. Sophomore jinx or whatever, but it felt like rushed to meet a deadline to take advantage of the buzz around The Martian

Artemis was the letdown (actually borderline painful) for me RE Andy Weir. Maybe that's why Project Hail Mary felt like a step back in the right direction to me. *shrug*

Same here.

Martian > Project Hail Mary >>> Artemis.

Duke of Windsor, of course. Duke of Westminster’s going gangbusters, richest peer in the UK. Owns a large swath of London, IIRC.

Yes, my head said Windsor, and my fingers typed Westminster.

Now fixed in the original.
