Not crazy, eccentric-billionaire rich, like many of the visitors to her hometown of Artemis, humanity’s first and only lunar colony. Just rich enough to move out of her coffin-sized apartment and eat something better than flavored algae. Rich enough to pay off a debt she’s owed for a long time.
So when a chance at a huge score finally comes her way, Jazz can’t 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 can’t handle, and she figures she’s got the ‘swagger’ part down.
The trouble is, engineering the perfect crime is just the start of Jazz’s problems. Because her little heist is about to land her in the middle of a conspiracy for control of Artemis itself.
Trapped between competing forces, pursued by a killer and the law alike, even Jazz has to admit she’s in way over her head. She’ll have to hatch a truly spectacular scheme to have a chance at staying alive and saving her city.
Jazz is no hero, but she is a very good criminal.
That’ll have to do.
Propelled by its heroine’s wisecracking voice, set in a city that’s 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.

潔思不像那些到亞提彌思的訪客，他們不只瘋狂，還是荒唐地有錢，那裡不僅是她家鄉，更是人類第一座、也是唯一一座月球殖民城市。她只是有錢到可以搬離棺材大小的公寓、吃比調味藻類還好點的食物。她只是有錢到可以償還積欠許久的債務。
當然大好機會來臨時，潔思絕對不會放過，不過得等她從小小的走私販，變成獨當一面的犯罪大師，這需要結合狡詰絕活、輪番爆炸，以及純粹、無恥的自吹自擂，但是潔思的聰明才智讓她面對挑戰總是游刃有餘，而且還更會自吹自擂了一些。
問題在設計出完美的犯罪計畫，只是潔思所面對挑戰的開始，因為她的小搶劫讓自己陷入掌控亞提彌思的陰謀當中。
潔思陷入強大勢力的拉鋸戰、被殺手追殺、還被通緝，甚至得承認這已超出自己所想。她必須籌劃出一個精密的計畫，不僅要讓自己生存下來，更要拯救家園。
潔思不是英雄、但是個傑出的罪犯。
這樣就足夠了。
