Resumen del Editor

In the thousand-sun network of humanity's expansion, new colony worlds are struggling to find their way. Every new planet lives on a knife-edge between collapse and wonder, and the crew of the aging gunship, Rocinante, have their hands more than full keeping the fragile peace.

In the vast space between Earth and Jupiter, the inner planets and the Belt have formed a tentative and uncertain alliance still haunted by a history of wars and prejudices. On the lost colony world of Laconia, a hidden enemy has a new vision for all of humanity and the power to enforce it. New technologies clash with old as the history of human conflict returns to its ancient pattern of war and subjugation. But human nature is not the only enemy, and the forces being unleashed have their own price. A price that will change the shape of humanity - and of the Rocinante - unexpectedly and forever....

The splintering of the Rocinante's crew.

Very dark and depressing. struggled to finish it because of that. still, the story is solid and the characters captivating. can't wait for tiamat's wrath.

Proto-molecule tech, ship combat and great pace

After some pretty slow moving plot in the last book the pace is now starting to increase.
The proto-molecule is the most interesting part of the story and they're expanding on it in interesting ways.

If you made it through the last book this one is definitely better and I wouldnt hesitate to recommend it.

Series dialled back up to 11 with this one

I struggled with Cibola Burn, Nemesis Games re-energised me, Babylon's Ashes got the series back to great. Now Persepolis Rising is showing us the grand story arch the writers have been planning all along and I'm starting Tiamat's War right after submitting this review.

Keeps getting better

Wow wow wow. At first I was unsure how the time skip would work but this is getting insanely exciting. Best installment so far

Good as always

Another great book in a series of good books. Slightly slow in the beginning but turns out great.

Awesome read.

Great performance of the material by the narrator and compelling story. Love it. Going to read all the the Expanse books.

Maybe the best one yet

I find it hard to review books without giving spoilers so I'll just say that this is another awesome entry in the series, as the title says I think it might even be the best one so far. Can't wait for book 8!

What a pleasant surprise after the last two!

The two last books were trainwrecks in my opinion. They made so little sense and I was just getting worked up over all the inconsistencies in the plot and decisions of the characters.

So, I held up on this one, only late finally got to it. And what a PLEASANT surprise! This was genuinely good! Good story, and characters who made sense. Recommended!

Continued excellence

The expanse series takes me back to the best sci fi I’ve read over the last 40+ years. Brilliant dialogue, personalities, ideas, perspective. It’s very hard to find writing this good.

This is good. There is some greatness to come...

As a trilogy of trilogies can go, The Expanse has a wonderful knack of setting things up.

This exciting adventure, which ultimately leaves us wondering what the heck our suddenly meek heroes can do to stem the tide of inevitability, is in and of itself not going to shift the standing of either the series’ foreshadowings nor your predictions of what they might be. Rather, it promises something epic and entertains your socks off along the way.

If you like this series, keep at it. It does not disappoint.
