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.

What Audible Listeners Are Saying
5/5 stars — “Wow. AMAZE. AMAZE. AMAZE. “
I rarely write reviews but had to this time. This was the best and most fun I’ve had listening to an audiobook ever. Perfect mix of science fiction and humor and just overall amazing. The narrator is so talented! Highly highly highly recommend.— Ellen, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “DON’T READ THE BOOK!”
Kudos to the amazing Ray Porter for his narration, who artfully makes every action and every character come alive throughout this entire 16-hour audiobook. The story itself is great, but reading the book can’t generate the same reactions as listening to the audiobook. NOTE: don’t overthink this science fiction story; just go with it as Porter takes you for a great ride thru Weir’s terrific writing.— Ann, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “So good, it’s depressing”
Every once in a while I’ll finish a book and can’t help but get a bit depressed. Knowing that the magic and intrigue you felt can never quite be captured again. Part of this comes from completing it so quickly, I just couldn’t put it down. The other was I KNEW I would love it just because it was written by Andy Weir. Most books it takes a few chapters to start getting into it but was hooked from the start.Without giving anything away I’d say that it’s a mix of the Bobiverse and the Martian. The amazing adventure that comes with space while geeking out on science projects.
