I dare anyone to get bored with him around and certainly his personality is reflected in his books! Also, after having watched ALL his interviews, I have to say Andy Weir is such a fascinating person, a great and funny conversation partner. Who does that? This in itself is a major accomplishment. I find it so interesting he passed from being a computer programmer to becoming a full-time writer. For a debut novel, it is absolutely amazing! One can only wish to write like that, especially coming from a totally different background. “The Martian” is Andy Weir’s debut novel. ![]() ![]() ![]() If that something just happens to be an entire colony of humans, well, a free workforce is a decent runner-up prize.īut there's something wrong with Murderbot it isn't running within normal operational parameters.
