Mah...

2 stelle

Mah... Il paragone con The Martian è praticamente d'obbligo e tanto ho amato quel libro quanto mi ha lasciato indifferente questo. Anche qui la scienza è descritta bene e molto accurata. La protagonista è il punto dolente. Una donna di 26 anni che è praticamente una ragazzina, un'adolescente. Una specie di so tutto io e se non so fare qualcosa, 5 minuti su internet e ne sono esperta. Antipatica. La storia scorre ed è anche una buona storia, ma con una protagonista che non ingrana più alcune incongruenze, questo romanzo lascia un certo amaro in bocca, soprattutto viste le aspettative dopo quel bellissimo libro che è stato The Martian.

The main character's voice was perfection.

Review of 'Artemis : A Novel' on 'Goodreads'

4 stelle

Andy Weir's novels are fun, easy, light-hearted reads. They always have a smug, smart-assed main character that often goes over the line to be likeable (and often succeeds, I must admit).

Nonetheless his novels are also very spot-on when it comes to scientific accuracy on everything space-related. Weir has the ability to explain even the most boring stuff in a fun, easy to follow style.

Artemis's plot is maybe a little far fetched: you've got the main character messing badly with the city's oxygen supply (a city on the moon, btw), risking everybody's lives for entirely personal reasons, and still she's depicted as a the good guy (well, gal in this case). But if you're willing to turn a blind eye on this, the plot is good and unfolds in a steady and gripping pace.

Weir's writing style is probably nothing to write home about, but it's never dull either, …

Weir's writing style is probably nothing to write home about, but it's never dull either, and considering the heavy load of scientific stuff he writes about, that's some accomplishment.

I recommend this to everyone who is at least a little bit interested in space exploration.
