In Pilot Pirx, Lem has created an irresistibly likable character: an astronaut who gives the impression of still navigating by the seat of his pants-a bumbler but an inspired one. By investing Pirx with a range of human foibles, Lem offers a wonderful vision of the audacity, childlike curiosity, and intuition that can give humans the courage to confront outer space.

Better than I expected. The newest translation did a fantastic job of keeping my interest. I really wanted more. It feels like Jaws many times where the lack of details is more intense than just telling the reader. Going to look into more of Lem.
