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 plain-old "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.

But Mark isn't ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills—and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit—he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him?

作为科幻小说，《火星救援》里面幻想的成分很少，整个故事设定的时间点，以及火星探索所采用的科技手段，都是根据现实中各种版本的NASA火星计划来的。但这也正是其特别打动人的地方，因为这是触手可及的未来。作者就曾在他fb上感慨过，二三十年之内，人类必然登陆火星，也就意...

用户评价

实打实的细节。我要说这不是科幻小说，这是纪实小说！

wahaha, yet another book in English.

看了半本终因太了解情节而放弃，佩服他这种在极端情况下能够鼓励自己，不埋怨别人，解决问题的态度和能力

- -大概是我第一本读完的原作。。。因为挺简单的英文。。然后地铁上看看也不觉得有什么。。电影基本还原 但是原作还是更有趣一些。。
