Artemis

A good story, but not Andy's best one.

Andy Weir is known for his realistic science-fiction novels. This one is no exception, but I felt the science was left behind on this one.
The novel is set in Artemis, the first lunar colony, where we follow Jaz a low-rank smuggler. She imports many contraband goods, but this is not enough to cover her expenses, so the book turns into a heist story when she is presented with a life changing job. Which I thought was a great idea, but it turned the book into a science-fiction heist novel. In the other book, Mr. Wear has realized the main character has a great knowledge of science and applies it to solve the presented problem. But this time the only idea Jaz comes up with is blowing things up.

I am also not convinced about the ending of the book. In my opinion, was the last chapter a little unnecessary and I would have ended the book with the one action (if you have read the book you know what I am talking about, but just in case I will make my review spoiler free). It is true that the last chapter gives us closer to the open threads, but I would have done it differently.

The review up until now has not been as positive as my score... that lies in the fact that the story is great, but it is not a great Andy Wier novel.

All in all, it is a great book, and would recommend it to everybody, this book is clearly more compatible with the general audience than the other book that Andy Weir has written. But if you liked this book, please check the other book by Mr. Weir, you will love them.
