ARTEMIS by Andy Weir (Book Review)

now disregarding the Martian as a comparison entirely and just reviewing Artemis as a book itself I would still highly praise it your main character is very interesting with a fully fleshed-out personality a strong female protagonist who's able to carry her own weight and be engaging throughout the entire time every other character is pretty much established with a couple of paragraphs and then no more development is allowed for them period

the Martian was real sci-fi excellence dabbling into realism and character development on a level we rarely see in the sci-fi genre
