Can’t get enough of Andy Weir’s The Martian? Dive a little deeper into his world, discover hidden treasures, and hang out with Mark Watney just a little longer with this AfterRead.
Warning: This is an independent companion to The Martian, meant to enhance your experience of the novel. If you have not yet bought Andy Weir’s novel, make sure to purchase it before buying this unofficial AfterRead. And if you have already purchased WeLoveNovels' Sidekick to The Martian, then do not buy this AfterRead.
Mark Watney wasn’t the mission commander of Ares 3, a month-long expedition to Mars. He was just the science geek, botany guru, and mechanical engineer: the lowest guy on the totem pole. And the only one who didn’t make it back to the ascent vehicle when the storm hit. Left for dead on the surface of a barren planet, Watney must plumb the depths of his considerable ingenuity and resourcefulness to find a way to survive—and to let the people on Earth know he’s still alive.
Praised by The Wall Street Journal as “the purest example of real-science sci-fi for many years,” The Martian has been on the NYT bestseller list for more than six months. It is Andy Weir’s debut novel.
With this AfterRead, you’ll:
• Uncover some of the book’s hidden gems and underlying themes
• Explore possible alternate endings and imagine ideas for a prequel
