So I was excited about Project Hail Mary and went to the Wikipedia page [1].
Can someone who has read the book tell me if the current intro is a spoiler, or something we learn in the book's first third? ("He gradually remembers that...")
I know Wikipedia doesn't put spoiler tags, but they are usually confined to the "Plot" section.

- bluesquared 5y agoYes, very slight spoilers but probably not much more than you'd deduce from reading the jacket of the book. Certainly something that you find out from the first few chapters. Basic progression without too much spoilers is main character wakes up and deduces that: 1. He is not on earth 2. He is on a spaceship 3. He is not in our solar system 4. He is there for a reason
- tjader 5y agoThat is revealed in the first third of the book. I would prefer not having that info before reading, but it is part of the basic premise.
- joconde 5y agoOkay thanks. That's on me for being too impatient I guess.
- gwbas1c 5y agoIt's not a major spoiler. He remembers that within the first few chapters, well before you're a third into the book.
- joconde 5y agoThank you!
- mikepurvis 5y agoI loved PHM and was particularly relieved that it was great after the letdown that Artemis was. It's definitely a much more fanciful story than The Martian (you know what I mean if you've read it), but I think it's a good balance of still being totally believable and plausible.
