About this listen

 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.©2015 Ty Franck Adventure Fiction Hard Science Fiction Science Fiction Space Opera Fantasy Solar System

Critic reviews

Interplanetary adventure the way it ought to be
As close as you'll get to a Hollywood blockbuster in book form
This is the future the way it's supposed to be
Tense and thrilling
Great characters, excellent dialogue, memorable fight scenes
'High adventure equalling the best space opera has to offer, cutting-edge technology and a group of unforgettable characters . . . Perhaps one of the best tales the genre has yet to produce'

That moment of bated breath in the vacuum was incredible. The overarching plot just keeps getting better.

Another exceptional installment

As a fan of the saga it has be very enjoyable to see the core characters split up and move through their story arc. Holden had a bit of a break, I think he needed it the poor sod. The story sets up a change for the direction of humanity and paves the way for an exciting story arc. Great Narration.

Intriguing plot whilst still following the characters soap opera

Superb

The excellent performance from the narrator breathes life into the characters of this story, and it's a very welcome return; given how strongly-focused it is on the lives and emotions of the characters themselves.

Thank God the old narrator's back
