Bringing to life Weir's brash, whip-smart protagonist is actress Rosario Dawson (Marvel's The Defenders, Sin City, Death Proof). 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 - and that now her only chance at survival lies in a gambit even riskier than the first. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down. 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. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. The moon is spectacular to see in person.Listen to audiobook in full for free on Title: Artemis Author: Andy Weir Narrator: Rosario Dawson Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 59 mins Language: English Release date: 11-14-17 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 32041 votes Genres: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Sci-Fi: Contemporary Publisher's Summary: The best-selling author of The Martian returns with an irresistible new near-future thriller - a heist story set on the moon. The “Museum of Artemis: Life on the Moon,” which hosts “artifacts” from Artemis along with Jerram’s 23-foot lunar installation, will have public hours in New York City on Friday October 6 & Saturday October 7, 12p,-8pm, and Sunday, October 8th, 12pm-4pm at the Classic Car Club of Manhattan (1 Pier 75 408 12th Ave). And indeed, pulling off the perfect crime is just the first of Jazz’s problems as she finds herself in the middle of a conspiracy for control of Artemis itself. So when the chance at a life-changing score drops in her lap, Jazz can’t say no, even though she’s sure there’s more to the setup than meets the eye.
She’s got debts to pay, her job as a porter barely covers the rent, and her budding career as a smuggler isn’t exactly setting her up as a kingpin, much to her disappointment. Life on Artemis is tough if you’re not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire, and Jazz is decidedly not a member of either category. Except the small town happens to be named Artemis-and it’s the first and only city on the moon.
Jazz (Jasmine Bashara) is just another too-smart, directionless twentysomething, chafing at the constraints of her small town and dreaming of a better life.
