# Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir [https://i.imgur.com/UAezzh8.jpg] We had a pretty good turnout for our first book of the month vote. To be honest I did not anticipate the problem of there being a tie. I took the liberty of flipping a coin which came out heads for Project Hail Mary. In the future I might have to come up with a better method of tie breaking. I’m figuring this out as I go and it is all just for the fun of it anyway so please don’t take this too seriously. 1) Project Hail Mary - Andy Weir [https://bookwyrm.social/book/102060/s/project-hail-mary] - 20 votes 2) Children of Time - Adrian Tchaikovsky [https://bookwyrm.social/book/318855/s/children-of-time] - 20 votes 3) Neuromancer - William Gibson [https://bookwyrm.social/book/886299/s/neuromancer] - 17 votes 4) Hyperion - Dan Simmons [https://bookwyrm.social/book/151613/s/hyperion-hyperion-cantos] - 13 votes 5) Leviathan Wakes - James S.

Great read. Probably my favorite book Weir has put out so far.

Not technically a sequel to The Martian but it kinda feels like it in a way. That’s not a negative for me though, Martian is a great story

I love both the top two choices. Children of Time that series is awesome and I recommend everyone read them. I own both physical copies and audiobooks of all three.

Project Hail Mary is also excellent book but I only have the audio version. Love to get a copy of the actual book because I do understand it diffrent in one way from the audio version.

I read few of the others the Hyperion series is also a great read should have been higher up. I own the ebooks, audiobooks, and hardack copies of that series. A great series.

Definitely will read rest of what’s on this list soon.
