The Martian

from Read Between The Lines · host Andy Weir

What happens when your crew accidentally leaves you for dead on Mars? If you’re astronaut Mark Watney, you get to work. Stranded millions of miles from Earth with dwindling supplies, he has only his ingenuity and a sharp sense of humor to survive on a planet where everything can kill him. Watney’s mission is simple: "science the shit out of" his predicament and find a way to let NASA know he’s alive. It’s a brilliant and gripping tale of survival against impossible odds.
