I really enjoyed that book and the whole “alone in space” vibe it gives off. Are there any more like it?
EDIT: Jeez i can’t reply to you all. I wish there was a way to compile all your suggestions into a Goodreads list, these all sound awesome!
Massive fan of The Martian and Weirs follow up called ‘Project Hail Mary’. It leans a little more in the direction of Science Fiction than the Martian did, but it’s an absolute page turner from front to back.
Just finished this. Woah dude. Great book.
The Three Body problem is a bit more science fiction-y but it has a similar type of pull that The Martian or Project Hail Mary has. Hard to stop once you start.
Also anything by Neal Stephenson would be appropriate. Particularly Seveneves or Snowcrash.
Also check Weir’s book Artemis. Not as good as the Martian or Project Hail Mary, but still pretty good.
Will do. All of Weir’s other stuff seems to be highly regarded too.
Try Solaris by Stanislaw Lem. One of the best books I’ve ever read and is more or less what you are describing.
Can’t wait to read a book about Sun Microsystem’s operating system. Nonetheless, looks cool! Added to my bookmarks
