Phenomenal! This book blew me away.
I am awed by the way Weir was able to balance the science aspects, with the human ones. This book is both very scientific and very focused on the human condition. This is the first time that I have seen that accomplished with such integrated ease. The main character is a science nerd and he is also entirely human in a down-to-earth, everyman sort of way. So incredibly relatable. Also, I am floored that all the heavy science didn't slow the book down. Instead, it helped to propel it forward.
This really is an excellent piece of literature that is well deserving of its many accolades.
