(That's why a Book Club can be so awesome!) I highly recommend listening to some of the author's interviews when you are done. He's so interesting!

That narration is phenomenal and really made the book come alive for me. I'm happy to see someone else is enjoying R.C. Bray at what I think is his best. :)Kathy Reads Fictionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01670090074945964381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5345948308406299194.post-53817249863972702352015-07-24T14:30:32.002-04:002015-07-24T14:30:32.002-04:00I loved this book too!

I *love* the log entries and I think the audiobook makes the technical jargon a lot easier to understand. The only thing that bugs me about audiobooks is not knowing how people's names (or place names) are spelled, so I end up having to look that up...hahaha (i.e Venkat Kapoor!) Can't wait for the ending AND for the movie...I am already picturing Matt Damon as Mark Watney as I listen!Heather @ The Maritime Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14334570091224362628noreply@blogger.com
