Summary

A thousand worlds have opened, and the greatest land rush in human history has begun. As wave after wave of colonists leave, the power structures of the old solar system begin to buckle.

Ships are disappearing without a trace. Private armies are being secretly formed. The sole remaining protomolecule sample is stolen. Terrorist attacks previously considered impossible bring the inner planets to their knees.

The sins of the past are returning to exact a terrible price. And as a new human order is struggling to be born in blood and fire, James Holden and the crew of the Rocinante must struggle to survive and get back to the only home they have left.

Great sci-fi adventure!

Real page turning action, more depth into favorite characters and epic story progression. Great work from the reader too, like watching the best blockbuster in your head!

The Fifth Expanse Novel

This is the First Expanse Novel I’ve listened to on audible, it starts just a little after the 4th prime series finishes, and it’s really really good. The characterisation and interlacing of story threads is masterly. The voice artist is easy to listen to and captures the individual characters and jargon very well.
I will be buying the next.

Excellent

Yet another brilliant read, wonderfully narrated with a gripping storyline which kept me glued to my headphones. Extremely enjoyable.

The Expanse expands the characters. ..

The characters have their own stories told whilst the main story ploughs on relentlessly.
More Avasarala, more Bobbie, more everything!

Great 5th book

This book is great a mystery story which leads to many questions hopefully answered in the next. Ace performance as ever.

Good yarn

A little slow to start with, but got there eventually and is worth a listen.

My reason for only awarding 4 stars to the narrator is that, at times, I lost who was talking to whom as the distinction between the voices was a little vague.

All in all though, a very enjoyable book to listen to.

Left me wanting more

Loved the back story.

The lack of weird alien stuff was refreshing too - but this felt like a filler.

Voice acting is amazing and everything the little Indian lady swears I can't help bursting with laughter.

Blew my mind

Totally unexpected shift in the story. Can't wait to read the next book. This is the first time the story splits the crew up and it pays off as each character is allowed to flourish and expand.

Stunning next episode

As usual a great plot and wonderful characters. Great to learn more about the back story of our core team and in such an unusual way. Thank you for bringing back Jefferson Mays as the narrator.
