Loved the story but be aware, this is the only one of the four books in this series available, audio or Kindle version as of 3/23.
Ends on a cliff hanger so is you listen be prepared to be disappointed.
Maybe some day this will change.

Before I even read the book someone in these reviews aired their opinion about something in this book and then after said “Spoiler”! If you are a fan read first then look at reviews if you want.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

I went back and forth for a while on this book. It’s a long one and some books that are longer just seem to fall apart, take forever to make a point that a few words would accomplish, not here. Was sad to hear “ Audible hope you have enjoyed this program” because this great story was over. Can’t wait for Andy’s next book.

great performance

Was time a problem?
Reviewed: 06-28-15
The performance was very good but it seems that they had to speed up the narration. When ever he talks it about 2x speed. I guess they had a time limit to stay within. Still very good.

Story
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plainold "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.
