Astronaut Mark Watney, presumed dead after a terrible storm, remains alone at the Martian station. And although the conditions there are quite comfortable, there is one big problem: Mark faces starvation. But fortunately, besides the limited supplies of space food, he also has twelve potatoes and a little bit of earthly soil. His goal is to last four years until the arrival of the next mission.
The Martian Robinson Crusoe has to show extraordinary imagination and apply all his knowledge to survive and return to Earth. And we probably won't spoil our readers' enjoyment too much if we immediately say that, despite the problems and difficulties, everything will end well for Mark.
"The Martian" is the first published novel by American writer Andy Weir. This story seems to be taken straight from the works of the "golden age" of science fiction.
