Engaging narrator, quite a bit of humor, and very readable scientific jargon add up to a wonderful modern take on Robinson Crusoe. Compared to the movie, the book has even more setbacks, which makes it more tense, but overall it's one of the best book-to-film adaptations I've seen. I really loved this one.

Lots of technical info, with a really engaging narrative and relatable main character. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. It also kept me on the edge of my seat.

A great story of survival on another world based more on science than science fiction. A good summer beach read.
