In Andy Weir’s Artemis, life on the moon is expensive, dangerous, and full of secrets. Jasmine “Jazz” Bashara is a clever smuggler scraping by in Artemis, the moon’s only city. She wants money, freedom, and a way out of her cramped “coffin” apartment. So when a wealthy businessman offers her a fortune to sabotage a powerful lunar corporation, Jazz takes the job.
But what starts as a risky payday quickly spirals into murder, organized crime, and a conspiracy that could decide the future of humanity’s first moon city. Hunted by criminals and watched by authorities, Jazz must use her sharp mind, street smarts, and a few unlikely allies to save Artemis before it falls under the control of a ruthless syndicate.
Fast, funny, and packed with lunar science, Artemis is a high-stakes sci-fi thriller about survival, greed, and one woman’s fight to protect the city she calls home.
