This book reads like the lamest action movie to ever exist. I tried so hard after hearing so many good things, but I cannot look past the constant cliches and one-liners and the absolutely terrible writing and unbelievable circumstances in the story. If you told a highschooler wrote this for an English project I would have no problem believing it.  I should have trusted my instincts on this one. Even the title is bad.

It's  disappointing after how entertaining (but also full of cheesey cliches) The Martian was. 

Weir could have had a very fruitful career writing for blockbuster if they still existed. Novels are not his forte.
