Andy Weir, who burst onto the scene with his blockbuster first novel, The Martian<\/a>, is back with his second novel Artemis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jazz Bashara is a criminal.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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\u2014and that now, her only chance at survival lies in a gambit even riskier than the first.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
