I love Andy Weir's writing, so I was looking forward to this one a lot, but it wasn't as strong as the other entries in the series. The characterisation was excellent and the way that it developed was interesting, but the plot itself wasn't as wild and adventurous as the rest of the series and it paled a little in comparison. If I'd read this first, I might have enjoyed it more, but it was still a good and quick read.
