What would you say is the best in its genre? I'm asking because I very much enjoyed the science, technical details and explainations in Project Hail Mary and The Martian. I've found not many Sci-Fi books with similar details in this regard so I would love suggestions :)
I agree with you on all points about the science in Hail Mary. However, what bothered me more was the strict, predictable alternation between past and present. This rigid structure detracted from my overall enjoyment of the novel, making the narrative feel somewhat monotonous and, at times, overly predictable.
On the other hand, The Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy by Cixin Liu was a real favorite for me.
It's been a while since I read it but I know what you mean and I think I felt similarly.
I don't know that trilogy yet. Thank you for the recommendation :)
