Really interesting but one gripe with narrator
Revisado: 08-07-18
There’s one character that the narrator voiced terribly. He sounds like an old man who’s right on the verge of crying all the time, it’s really irritating. Because if that I gave the performance four stars and five stars for the rest. Very good sci fi

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plainold "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.

Incredible ride.

Just an amazing story. It truly captures the human psychology of being alone and stranded on another planet while the billions of members of your species are safe on earth. I loved ever second of this book. In fact it was so good that I feel compelled to find something... Anything to critique, I guess some of the jokes were a little lame. That's it. That's the only bad thing I can say. An excellent story of survival, highly recommend

With compassion and candor, leading neurosurgeon Henry Marsh reveals the fierce joy of operating, the profoundly moving triumphs, the harrowing disasters, the haunting regrets, and the moments of black humor that characterize a brain surgeon's life. If you believe that brain surgery is a precise and exquisite craft, practiced by calm and detached surgeons, this gripping, brutally honest account will make you think again.

Excellent
Revisado: 06-09-16
A very good listen, The descriptions of the various brain tumors are interesting and if the book consisted of nothing but this I would have loved it.
But then when he goes on tangents about this committee or that committee getting in the way of his work and annoying him with all of the nonsense he has to endure it's downright hilarious. Interesting to see that even highly specialized brain surgeons are not immune to the effects of workplace politics.
