Story has an interesting premise but I found it wholly predictable such that this book just didn't hold for me and I chewed my way unhappily to the end.

I genuinely can't fairly rate this book given my deep objections to the current US administration, and that I'm unqualified to reckon this book with JD Vance as Vice President. But I recommend it to those interested in US politics.

I can say it is well written, articulate, and doesn't appear self-indulgent. I do not know how much is fiction.

Hard to give a rating on account of YT being a sexualised 15 year-old character. My version is an earlier edition. I understand subsequent editions had sex scenes removed.

The teenage, vacuous, sarcastic dialogue piled on like a mountain of tomato sauce for me ruined Weir's Artemis.

Similar protagonist chatter was annoying in Martian but in Artemis I found it so grating and abundant that I quit after struggling through half the book.

Others may fare better: The storyline seemed ok.

Nearly 14,000 reviews; what's left to say? Something simple.

Goes deep so not a breezy read, but Keefe rewards.
