Artemis

Book cover for Artemis

A letdown after The Martian. I thought the Jazz felt a little too much like Mark Watney, and for most of the story was not a fan of her actions. I didn't see much point in the salty language and sexual comments, to tell the truth.

The sciencey bits seemed okay, and I did enjoy hearing about the construction of the moon colonies, and the plot did move along, making for a superficially fun, quick, read. But the characterization fell flat, as did Jazz's internal monologue explaining (to us, I guess) what certain terms that she would be familiar with were.
