The universe is so vast, there’s always room for hope.

How can revival impact your everyday life? Maybe you've thought revival is for "super-charged" Christians - not for everyday people going through everyday life. Wrong. God wants your everyday to be overflowing with Holy Spirit power. Do you feel like there is more to being a Christ-follower than rhetoric, rules, and regulations? The truth is, you were created for a dynamic relationship with the living God. Don't settle for scattered showers when there is a great outpouring available.

La humanidad ha colonizado el Sistema Solar: Marte, la Luna, el cinturón de asteroidesy más allá, pero las estrellas aún están fuera de nuestro alcance. Jim Holden es segundo de a bordo de un transportador de hielo que realiza misiones entre los anillos de Saturno y las estaciones mineras del Cinturón. Cuando su tripulación y él se topan con la Scopuli, una nave abandonada, descubren un secreto que desearían no haber encontrado.

Durante generaciones, el Sistema Solar (Marte, la Luna y el cinturón de asteroides) ha conformado la gran frontera de la humanidad. Hasta ahora. El artefacto alienígena que realizaba su obra bajo las nubes de Venus ha aparecido en la órbita de Urano, donde ha construido una puerta enorme que se abre hacia un espacio sin estrellas. Jim Holden y la tripulación de la Rocinante forman parte de una gran flotilla de naves militares y científicas que parten para examinar el artefacto.

Las puertas han abierto el camino a miles de nuevos mundos y la fiebre de la colonización se ha desatado. Los colonos buscan una nueva vida lejos de los planetas natales de la humanidad. Ilo, la primera colonia humana en esta gran nueva frontera, nace entre sangre y fuego. Los colonos independientes se sublevan contra el poder arrollador de una nave colonial corporativa, cargados únicamente con su determinación, su valor y las habilidades adquiridas en las largas guerras en casa. Científicos inocentes mueren masacrados tratando de estudiar el funcionamiento de un mundo nuevo y extraño.

For the first time, all of the short fiction set in James S. A. Corey's New York Times best-selling Expanse series is available in this collection—including a brand-new novella.

En Ganímedes, asolada por la guerra y fuente de recursos de los planetas exteriores, una marine de Marte asiste a la aniquilación de su pelotón a manos de un supersoldado monstruoso. En la Tierra, una política de alto rango hace todo lo posible por evitar que vuelva a estallar una guerra interplanetaria. Y en Venus, una protomolécula alienígena se ha hecho con el planeta y desencadenado una serie de cambios misteriosos que amenazan con extenderse por el Sistema Solar. El futuro de la humanidad depende de que una sola nave evite una invasión alienígena.

For someone who didn't intend to wreck the solar system's fragile balance of power, Jim Holden did a pretty good job of it.While Earth and Mars have stopped shooting each other, the core alliance is shattered. The outer planets and the Belt are uncertain in their new - possibly temporary - autonomy. Then, on one of Jupiter's moons, a single super-soldier attacks, slaughtering soldiers of Earth and Mars indiscriminately and reigniting the war.

Humanity has colonized the planets - interstellar travel is still beyond our reach, but the solar system has become a dense network of colonies. But there are tensions - the mineral-rich outer planets resent their dependence on Earth and Mars and the political and military clout they wield over the Belt and beyond. Now, when Captain Jim Holden's ice miner stumbles across a derelict, abandoned ship, he uncovers a secret that threatens to throw the entire system into war.

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.

The gates have opened the way to a thousand new worlds, and the rush to colonise has begun. Settlers looking for a new life stream out from humanity's home planets. Illus, the first human colony on this vast new frontier, is being born in blood and fire. Independent settlers stand against the overwhelming power of a corporate colony ship with only their determination, courage, and the skills learned in the long wars of home.

For generations the solar system--Mars, the moon, the asteroid belt--was humanity's great frontier. Until now. The alien artefact working through its program under the clouds of Venus has emerged to build a massive structure outside the orbit of Uranus: a gate that leads into a starless dark. Jim Holden and the crew of the Rocinante are part of a vast flotilla of scientific and military ships going out to examine the artefact. But behind the scenes, a complex plot is unfolding, with the destruction of Holden at its core.

A revolution brewing for generations has begun in fire. It will end in blood. The Free Navy - a violent group of Belters in black-market military ships - has crippled the Earth and begun a campaign of piracy and violence among the outer planets. The colony ships heading for the 1,000 new worlds on the far side of the alien ring gates are easy prey, and no single navy remains strong enough to protect them. James Holden and his crew know the strengths and weaknesses of this new force better than anyone.

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.

Die Menschheit hat das Sonnensystem kolonisiert. Auf dem Mond, dem Mars, im Asteroidengürtel - überall gibt es Kolonien und werden Rohstoffe abgebaut. Doch noch ist das Sonnensystem die Grenze. Als der Kapitän eines kleinen Minenschiffs einen havarierten Frachter aufbringt, ahnt er nicht, welch gefährliches Geheimnis er in Händen hält - ein Geheimnis, das die Zukunft der ganzen menschlichen Zivilisation für immer verändern wird.

James Holden e il suo equipaggio vengono spediti a bordo della Rocinante nel bel mezzo della rivolta. La loro è una missione impossibile: trovare uno spiraglio di pace tra tanta violenza e restituire ordine a un caos che ormai sembra inarrestabile, perché da esso nasce il morbo, la pestilenza che minaccia l'universo e che sta uccidendo, insieme agli uomini, il sogno di civilizzazione fin lì intrapreso.

Pendant des générations, le système solaire - Mars, la Lune, la ceinture d'astéroïdes - fut la grande frontière de l'humanité. Jusqu'à maintenant. Un objet non identifié opérant sous les nuages de Vénus est apparu dans l'orbite d'Uranus, où il a construit une porte massive qui mène à un hyperespace désolé.
