About this listen

 The eighth novel in James S. A. Corey's New York Times bestselling Expanse series--now a major television series. Thirteen hundred gates have opened to solar systems around the galaxy. But as humanity builds its interstellar empire in the alien ruins, the mysteries and threats grow deeper. In the dead systems where gates lead to stranger things than alien planets, Elvi Okoye begins a desperate search to discover the nature of a genocide that happened before the first human beings existed, and to find weapons to fight a war against forces at the edge of the imaginable. But the price of that knowledge may be higher than she can pay. At the heart of the empire, Teresa Duarte prepares to take on the burden of her father's godlike ambition. The sociopathic scientist Paolo Cortazar and the Mephistophelian prisoner James Holden are only two of the dangers in a palace thick with intrigue, but Teresa has a mind of her own and secrets even her father the emperor doesn't guess. And throughout the wide human empire, the scattered crew of the Rocinante fights a brave rear-guard action against Duarte's authoritarian regime. Memory of the old order falls away, and a future under Laconia's eternal rule -- and with it, a battle that humanity can only lose - seems more and more certain. Because against the terrors that lie between worlds, courage and ambition will not be enough...©2019 Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck (P)2019 Recorded Books Adventure Fiction First Contact Science Fiction Space Exploration Space Opera Interstellar

Bloody Awesome

I've enjoyed the series so far, but as I got this book I was wondering how long this story can stay interesting. The answer is at least one more book. This was great, the characters continue to grow and change, not everything works out so you're always wondering, the narrator is awesome as usual, you always know who is talking even when it's not stated. I just liked everything about this book.

Loved it!

I loved the introduction of new characters this time around, it was much better than the last set.

The stakes were incredibly high and the costs were just as brutal.

My only criticism is the apparent neutralisation of a major character in a very strange way. The story is still left untold though so perhaps it could turn around.

Best book on the series so far yet.

The best yet and setting up for an amazing finale!

Flawless continuation of the story
