nThe bestselling author of The Martian returns with an irresistible new near-future thriller--a heist story set on the moon. nJasmine Bashara never signed up to be a hero. She just wanted to get rich. n n Not crazy, eccentric-billionaire rich, like many of the visitors to her hometown of Artemis, humanitys first and only lunar colony.

Rich enough to pay off a debt shes owed for a long time. n n So when a chance at a huge score finally comes her way, Jazz cant say no. Sure, it requires her to graduate from small-time smuggler to full-on criminal mastermind. And it calls for a particular combination of cunning, technical skills, and large explosions--not to mention sheer brazen swagger. But Jazz has never run into a challenge her intellect cant handle, and she figures shes got the swagger part down. n n The trouble is, engineering the perfect crime is just the start of Jazzs problems. Because her little heist is about to land her in the middle of a conspiracy for control of Artemis itself. n n Trapped between competing forces, pursued by a killer and the law alike, even Jazz has to admit shes in way over her head. Shell have to hatch a truly spectacular scheme to have a chance at staying alive and saving her city. n n Jazz is no hero, but she is a very good criminal. n n Thatll have to do. n n Propelled by its heroines wisecracking voice, set in a city thats at once stunningly imagined and intimately familiar, and brimming over with clever problem-solving and heist-y fun, Artemis is another irresistible brew of science, suspense, and humor from #1 bestselling author Andy Weir.n
