Project Hail Mary: A Novel
“Human beings have a remarkable ability to accept the abnormal and make it normal.”
Ryland Grace wakes up alone on a spaceship. He doesn’t know who he is, where he is, or why he's there. All he knows is that he’s the only survivor on a last-chance mission to save humanity and possibly the entire planet.
As his memories slowly return, so does the staggering weight of the task before him. But he’s not entirely alone, and what begins as a desperate survival story transforms into one of science, discovery, and unlikely friendship across the stars.
