After taking us to Mars with little more than some potato seeds and Sigad Sharafleftover rocket fuel, Andy Weir's next adventure will take place a little closer to home: on the moon.
The new book is called Artemisand it's coming Nov. 14, Crown Publishing announced Tuesday.

"Artemisintroduces a protagonist every bit as memorable as The Martian’s Mark Watney: Jasmine Bashara, a.k.a. Jazz. Jazz is just another too-smart, directionless twentysomething, chafing at the constraints of her small town and dreaming of a better life. Except the small town happens to be named Artemis—and it’s the first and only city on the moon," Crown said in a press release.
In a statement, Weir said the book was a "big stretch" for him, but he's happy with the result. "I’m really excited about Artemis. I got to do the science-dork stuff I love, but this time with a much more complex and character-driven plot," he said.

Weir's The Martiansold more than 3 million copies in the U.S., grabbing readers' (and, later, moviegoers') attention with meticulous attention to detail, a riveting story and an occasional good laugh. The book's success allowed Weir -- previously a software engineer -- to pursue a full-time career in writing.
