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.

The story is ok, but it never really grabbed me. Missed the whit and sarcasm of the Martian.

Didn‘t get the vibe

The performance of Rosario Dawson matches the humour of Weir perfectly. Although it doesn’t quite match the perfection of some of his other work: if you are a science fiction fan you are going to love this book.

Fantastic Read

The imagination of Moon future is interesting, but the superhero main character is a bit too much.

The strength of this audio book lies in its extremely well-researched, plausible ficticious Moon colony. The main plot takes ages to take off, and I didn't really connect with the protagonist - the story still worked well enough to keep me interested, and tje speaker was brilliant.

If you enjoy such meticiously constructed near-future setting, do check out Daniel Suarez' books, too.

Not as good as The Martian, but still worth listening
