ReviewsPraise for Artemis: "An action-packed techno-thriller of the first order...the perfect vehicle for humans who want to escape, if only for a time, the severe gravity of planet earth. The pages fly by." -- USA Today "Revitalizes the Lunar-colony scenario, with the author's characteristic blend of engineering know-how and survival suspense...Jazz is a great heroine, tough with a soft core, crooked with inner honesty." -- Wall Street Journal "Smart and sharp...Weir has done it again [with] a sci-fi crowd pleaser made for the big screen." --Salon.com "Makes cutting-edge science sexy and relevant...Weir has created a realistic and fascinating future society, and every detail feels authentic and scientifically sound." -- Associated Press "Out-of-this-world storytelling."-- Houston Chronicle "Weir excels when it comes to geeky references, snarky humour and scenes of ingenious scientific problem-solving." -- Financial Times "Weir has done the impossible--he's topped The Martian with a sci-fi-noir-thriller set in a city on the moon. What more do you want from life? Go read it!"- Blake Crouch, New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter " Everything you could hope for in a follow-up to The Martian : another smart, fun, fast-paced adventure that you won't be able to put down." - Ernest Cline, New York Times bestselling author of Ready Player One "A superior near-future thriller...with a healthy dose of humor." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "An exciting, whip-smart, funny thrill-ride...one of the best science fiction novels of the year." -- Booklist (starred review) "Narrated by a kick-ass leading lady, this thriller has it all - a smart plot, laugh-out-loud funny moments, and really cool science." -- Library Journal (starred review) Praise for The Martian : "Brilliant...a celebration of human ingenuity [and] the purest example of real-science sci-fi for many years." -- Wall Street Journal "A gripping survival story." -- New York Times "Terrific...a crackling good read."-- USA Today "A marvel...Robinson Crusoe in a space suit."-- Washington Post "Impressively geeky...the technical details keep the story relentlessly precise and the suspense ramped up." -- Entertainment Weekly "A story for readers who enjoy thrillers, science fiction, non-fiction, or flat-out adventure." -- Associated Press "Utterly nail-baiting and memorable."-- Financial Times "A hugely entertaining novel that reads like a rocket ship afire."-- Chicago Tribune

SynopsisNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * From the renowned author of Project Hail Mary and The Martian comes a "propulsive" (NPR) tale of science, suspense, and humor--a heist story set on the moon. "An action-packed techno-thriller of the first order."-- USA Today Jasmine Bashara never signed up to be a hero. She just wanted to get rich. Not crazy, eccentric-billionaire rich, like many of the visitors to her hometown of Artemis, humanity's first and only lunar colony. Just rich enough to move out of her coffin-sized apartment and eat something better than flavored algae. Rich enough to pay off a debt she's owed for a long time. So when a chance at a huge score finally comes her way, Jazz can't say no. But engineering the perfect crime is just the start of her problems--because her little heist is about to land her in the middle of a conspiracy for control of Artemis herself. Trapped between competing forces, pursued by a killer and the law alike, she'll have to hatch a truly spectacular scheme to have a chance at staying alive and saving her city. Jazz is no hero, but she is a very good criminal. That'll have to do., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From the renowned author of Project Hail Mary and The Martian comes a "propulsive" (NPR) tale of science, suspense, and humor--a heist story set on the moon.
