The seventh novel in James S. A. Corey's New York Times best-selling 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.

Se han abierto mil trescientas puertas a sistemas planetarios de toda la galaxia. Pero mientras la humanidad levanta un imperio interestelar en las ruinas alienígenas, los misterios y las amenazas no dejan de acecharla. En los sistemas muertos, donde las puertas llevan a lugares más extraños que los propios planetas alienígenas, Elvi Okoye empieza una búsqueda desesperada para descubrir las causas de un genocidio que ocurrió antes de la existencia humana, y también para encontrar las armas necesarias para librar una guerra contra fuerzas que desafían lo inimaginable.
