About this listen

THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE MARTIAN • Soon to be a major motion picture starring Ryan Gosling, directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, with a screenplay by Drew Goddard

Winner of the 2022 Audie Awards' Audiobook of the Year

Number-One Audible and New York Times Audio Best Seller

More than one million audiobooks sold

A lone astronaut must save the earth from disaster in this incredible new science-based thriller from the number-one New York Times best-selling author of The Martian.

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.

His crewmates dead, his memories fuzzily returning, he realizes that an impossible task now confronts him. Alone on this tiny ship that's been cobbled together by every government and space agency on the planet and hurled into the depths of space, it's up to him to conquer an extinction-level threat to our species.

And thanks to an unexpected ally, he just might have a chance.

Part scientific mystery, part dazzling interstellar journey, Project Hail Mary is a tale of discovery, speculation, and survival to rival The Martian - while taking us to places it never dreamed of going.

PLEASE NOTE: To accommodate this audio edition, some changes to the original text have been made with the approval of author Andy Weir.

I must admit it felt a bit dull at the beginning, or maybe I wasn't ready for it. We can see a definite evolution in Andy's story telling, in a good way. I was expecting another Martian and got something more along the lines of what we would expect from Heinlein, but with the usual great science description we learn to love. Great story twists. Ray Porter was also the perfect voice (same voice in The Bobverse) for this book. I'm sure I will listen to this book several more times.

Definitely not what I was expecting, in a good way

One of the previous reviews said it was not what was expected in a good way- couldnt agree more

This is one of my new favourite books especially with Ray Porter as lucky one reading it out.

If you like Dennis E Taylors BOBIVERSE you will love this

the writing is amusing and self critical. The main character is an everyman who ends up trying to save the world

Cant praise the book enough. I enjoyed this one more than The Martian

Fantastic book

As a genetics graduate most sci-if touching on microbiology leaves me with my head in my hands. You never need worry with Weir, he really does his research and this has led to another rich, twisting, believable and intriguing adventure, which still has a heart and never needs to resort to vulgarity to create tension. I never heard sci-if until I heard Weir. Truly in a class of his own.

Weir does it again! Another superb hard science fiction

I loved this so much. It may be one of the longer audiobooks available but not for one second are you not engaged 100% in the storyline.
Andy Weir is going to be in my top authors after this masterpiece.

Absolutely incredible

What a great book by Andy Weir. Incredibly gripping and full of interesting facts. Highly recommended, definitely not only for sci-fi fans. Performance by Ray Porter is also top notch. I started to look for audiobooks specifically narrated by Ray after this. Can’t wait for the next adventure from Andy Weir!

By far the book of 2021

Spoilers ***********


Much easier way to fix the Sun problem would be giant mirrors in space directing more sunlight to Earth much more likely to work then the project Hail Mary

Amazing, could not stop listening
