Humm, I'd say this was better than The Martian, but then I don't mind reading books featuring women. The PLUSES include a strong female lead, a mostly honest smuggler who gets caught up in something really bad, a father-daughter feud that has gone on far too long, a cast where three of the five most powerful people on the moon are women, it has non-stop action, there are well developed and interesting characters, and it offers 7 hours of glorious reading time. MINUSES, well, it is a sci-fi book with women who are NOT just there for the guys to have sex with. I am very impressed with Weir and his brave departure from the super-sexist tradition of Sci-fi. I know he has lost some fans over this.
