The Martian

Let me tell you a hell joke. The most sci-fi thing about this book is that the United States actually went out of its way to save him (funny) [laughing]

It may offend some groups, but I still want to say that this book is greater than or equal to "The Three-Body Problem" in my mind (I personally think that I hope to be lenient). It can be said to be a model of hard science fiction. Before "The Martian" came out, all science fiction novels were either "space operas" or other imaginative soft science fiction types. It was not until "The Martian" that a truly hard science fiction novel appeared in front of readers. I think that in addition to appreciating those science fiction novels with grand worldviews and rich imagination, there is nothing wrong with reading this kind of hard-core science fiction occasionally, and the plot itself is not bad. In terms of characters, Mark Watney is a humorous, strong and smart astronaut. The self-rescue methods he shows in the book have almost no loopholes, and the rescue plan in the book is also reasonable. As for other supporting characters, such as the responsible commander Lewis who tries not to give up a companion, and the rebellious but kind-hearted Mickey, they are all well-developed characters. The various knowledge in the book not only proves Andy Weir's rich knowledge, but also proves that he has collected a large amount of information, otherwise he would not be able to write such a science fiction novel. Of course, it is impossible to say that there are no loopholes at all, but among existing science fiction novels, it is definitely one of the most hardcore, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the ceiling!

Wilderness survival man on Mars. This book is extremely hard-core, and I couldn't understand a lot of the professional knowledge at all, but I just felt that Mark felt so good when he overcame difficulties. I like Mark's humorous and optimistic character very much. The diary he writes is full of life, and the swear words that can be seen everywhere make this character more vivid. The funniest thing is that after he used Voyager to establish contact with NASA, they cursed each other several times, and they were very dirty. The movie that impressed me the most and is the one most familiar to everyone is Potato Planting on Mars. However, in the book, there is not much plot about growing potatoes. What I saw was the feeling of being alone and surviving. To say science fiction is not too science fiction, it can be said to be the near future. Overall, it is a masterpiece for book lovers who like science fiction and wilderness survival.

A good book, humorous and touching. [Sending Hearts] The whole book uses the protagonist's first perspective and third perspective to connect the main lines. You can see humorous jokes, hard-core knowledge and warm themes. This book mainly tells the story of how I, as one of the astronauts on the mission, accidentally stayed alone on Mars, survived tenaciously through equipment resources and my own knowledge reserves, and was rescued more than five hundred days later. You can see many human shining points from this book: my optimism and positivity in struggling to survive, and the kindness of my teammates; the loyalty and friendship of my teammates who put their own safety first in order to rescue me without hesitation; the friendliness and responsibility of the ground who spent a lot of energy and financial resources to save a person, and who led the country () to give up their own plans; the aspirations of the people, etc. There is no mutual speculation, no intrigue, only one purpose, to save. It makes people feel warm and has endless aftertaste. This is the real fine grain, which can soothe some of the hostility in your heart. If you don't like watching classics, you can watch the movie first, but the original work is more delicate and comprehensive. After reading it, you will feel a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction far beyond reading ordinary novels. [Love] By the way, another plus point for this book is that the translator's translation is very good, very authentic, closer to life, more colloquial, and there are some jokes hahahaha. For example, "Bai Zheng", "Halo", etc., As well as the vivid images of translation in some places, make the book even more funny. A good translator paired with a good book makes it really fun to read [full] It doesn't take much time to read. It can basically be finished in one afternoon. Don't miss it.

Praise the gum and tape!

There is nothing wrong except that the content is too hardcore and some parts are hard to understand [Like]

It can be called "Robinson Crusoe (Mars Edition)". The optimistic Mark solves every trouble with his strong hands-on ability, and the translator also excellently translated his sense of humor. The most touching thing is the humanistic sentiment of everyone who made great efforts to save a compatriot stranded on Mars, and the camaraderie of his teammates who are determined to sacrifice and choose Plan B. The mention of China's aerospace industry Part of it makes people sigh. From the launch of the first satellite to the space station that has been replaced for six months today, what science fiction writer could have imagined such a leap and journey? I recommend Mr. Will to read the documentary work "Flying to the Spaceport" about the Sino-US cooperative satellite launch. From one launch, it shows the tenacity, simplicity, friendship and unity of Chinese astronauts and even the Chinese people.

Logical and humorous

It's great. At first, I thought it was a story about Mark meeting Martians and establishing Mark's kingdom on Mars, but I was even more moved by the concerted efforts of all mankind to rescue a life stranded on Mars.

I love this book so much. First, I went to see the movie "The Rescue Plan" and I was deeply fascinated. Then I followed the original author and discovered "The Martian". I watched the first twenty-one chapters in school. It was a great experience and made my heart beat wildly. This book in the library has been turned over and the pages have been pulped, which shows its popularity. It's a pity that there was no follow-up to the story of China Space Administration's reception of American personnel. I thought it was an open ending, which was quite a pity. Later I discovered that pages had fallen out at the back. Fortunately, I found the second half here again. After reading it in one go, I still had the familiar humor, familiar wisdom, and familiar feeling. It's very fun, the character of the protagonist is very interesting, and the content is very interesting, such as a doomsday survival on Mars. The writing is mainly the narrative of the protagonist. Influenced by Mark's humor, there are many witticisms that make people laugh. The optimistic spirit of never admitting defeat is also impressive. In short, a great book, and one that I would like to revisit from time to time.

I am going to read "The Rescue Plan" but don't want to be spoiled by this book. Mark Watney is definitely the most relaxed science fiction protagonist I have ever read (in fact, this is the first foreign science fiction novel I have read in its entirety), and he can still have fun even in the face of the dilemma of being alone on Mars. The most rare thing is that under the shell of light-hearted humor is extremely hard-core scientific knowledge (to be honest, I couldn't understand it but I enjoyed watching it). Can't wait to see The Rescue Plan!

A joint rescue that connects Mars and Earth and brings together the power of all mankind. The story is fascinating. When you are attracted into the world of the story, you will always be amused by the humorous language. It is very important for people to have an optimistic and positive attitude when facing desperate situations.

Great background and plot, worth watching

Although it is a debut novel, I think it is the best one, maybe because of the optimism of the protagonist, or maybe because I watched the movie first. All in all, nice looking! ! !

Awesome, you can watch the movie first and then come back to read the book Second brush, looks good

The hymn of mankind is the hymn of courage

Demonstrates the ultimate human will to survive under rationality

It's very interesting to watch. I suggest you watch the movie first and then read the book, because the content in the book is richer.

I watched the movie first. To be honest, both the movie and the original work are very good.

Very well written, great

It's a published book🤙

Interesting science fiction book

Very good, let's watch the movie again

It's so good. After reading the physical book, I searched it on Tomato

This is a very good one, similar to the three-body one but shorter, which is a pity, but it's very good.

The characters' language is humorous, the language logic is clear, and the plot is novel. I don't understand why high quality is not popular.

Very nice to look at. Although some technical parts are hard to understand, it does not hinder the tension that the protagonist's survival progress brings to me. This is a reward signal sent to me by my interest in reading.
