Artmeis by Andy Weir

Artemis: A Novel by [Weir, Andy]

Days of Night by Jonathan Stone

Days of Night by [Stone, Jonathan]

I really, really enjoyed this. I will definitely be looking for his other books. It felt like much more than just a genre mystery. There were all sorts of interesting issues here and well-developed characters.
