The Mission
Ryland Grace wakes up alone on a spaceship with no memory of who he is or why he's there. The only other occupants are two corpses.
As his memories slowly return, he pieces together his mission: Earth is dying. A microorganism called Astrophage is dimming the sun. Project Hail Mary is humanity's desperate gambit—send a ship to Tau Ceti to find a solution.
Grace is the last hope for eight billion people. And he's going to need help from an unexpected source.
That's all we'll say. The book's biggest joy is best discovered fresh.
