Please note that each contest is only open for 24 hours, so you will need to act quickly! Today's Featured Book and Contest: A lone astronaut must save the earth from disaster in this incredible new science-based thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of THE MARTIAN. “A novel that would have delighted Robert A. Heinlein and Isaac Asimov.” —George R. R. Martin, author of A GAME OF THRONES “Weir’s finest work to date...the one book I read last year that I am certain I can recommend to anyone, no matter who, and know they’ll love it.” —Brandon Sanderson, author of the Stormlight Archive series Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission --- and if he fails, humanity and the earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn’t know that. He can’t even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he’s been asleep for a very, very long time. And he’s just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company. His crewmates dead, his memories fuzzily returning, Ryland realizes that an impossible task now confronts him. Hurtling through space on this tiny ship, it’s up to him to puzzle out an impossible scientific mystery --- and conquer an extinction-level threat to our species. And with the clock ticking down and the nearest human being light-years away, he has to do it all alone. Or does he? An irresistible interstellar adventure as only Andy Weir could deliver, PROJECT HAIL MARY is a tale of discovery, speculation and survival to rival THE MARTIAN --- while taking us to places it never dreamed of going.
