Over the last ten years, we've developed a holiday tradition of spending Christmas Day road-tripping between our two families. That's 8 hours of driving. How do you enjoy 8 hours of driving? A great audiobook.
This one is good, good, good. Ryland Grace a high school science teacher wakes up in another star system with no memory of how he got there or why.
Ryland and the reader are slowly fed memories of his mission and goal while figuring out how to survive in space and collect vital data. Between the dual mystery box I couldn't put this one down.
For a book that is about a man alone in space, Weir doesn't keep the reader stuck in Ryland's mind. This is equally science fiction and buddy comedy. The conversational tone is really brought to life in the audiobook.
Overall, this was fabulous. The mysteries kept me extending my sleep timer for "just one more chapter" all night long. The humor warmed my heart. The science fascinated and engaged me (and even my husband).
