Publisher's Summary

The best-selling author of The Martian returns with an irresistible new near-future thriller - a heist story set on the moon.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent.

Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down. But pulling off the impossible is just the start of her problems, as she learns that she's stepped square into a conspiracy for control of Artemis itself - and that now her only chance at survival lies in a gambit even riskier than the first.

Bringing to life Weir's brash, whip-smart protagonist is actress Rosario Dawson (Marvel's The Defenders, Sin City, Death Proof). With the breathless immediacy of one realizing they're one cracked helmet visor away from oblivion, Dawson deftly captures Jazz's first-person perspective – all while delivering sarcastic Weir-ian one-liners and cracking wise in the face of death. And with a cast of diverse characters from all walks of life calling Artemis home, Dawson tonally somersaults to voice Kenyan prime ministers, Ukrainian scientists, and Saudi welders. It's a performance that transports listeners right alongside Jazz, matching her step for step on every lunar inch of her pulse-pounding journey.

more like a young adult fiction

this is no way close to Hail Mary or Martian. Some twists at the end seemed forced to keep the readers hooked to the book. if you are thinking between buying Hail Mary or Martian and this then go for Hail Mary and then Martian.

Great fun little story

A well researched sci-fi story that has a little old school heist feel. It's not something that will build a new world for you but definitely a great adventure. This is a good book to break up a long sci-fi series.

Good story, if a little far fetched

The performance was great. Rosario kept me hooked the whole way through. In places the story got a little lost in technical details, but over all a fun read with great characters.

A fun, pacey read

I quite enjoyed this one. Rosario Dawson's narration brought through the character's sass quite well. As for the story, it did drag a little in places but it made up for it soon. The humor was not for everyone but was in line with the bratty main character. The book didnt take itself too seriously and neither should we.

Excellent narration and good story.

As usual Rachel Dawson is as awesome offscreen as she's in onscreen. Her voice really made the story alive and felt like I was really on the moon.
