This third installment of the Expanse saga is fast moving, engaging, with great story telling and character development. I will definitely be proceeding on in this series. Like a blockbuster movie in book form.

Definitely not the direction I was expecting this series to take, but extremely good nonetheless. I think this series does a really good job of having an overarching plot that is progressing rather than having each of the stories be self-contained. But at the same time, each book introduces new characters that are compelling and unique and add a lot to the universe. The female representation seems to be improving as time goes on, too. I think this book in particular really brought to light exactly why the series is called "The Expanse." Looking forward to the next book.

UKUPNA OCENA (overall rating) ★★★
Radnja (story) ★★★
Likovi (characters) ★★★
Pripovedanje (writing style) ★★★✫
Okruženje (setting) ★★★✫

Pozitivno (pros) - i dalje interesantna ideja oko protomolekula i prstena i šta on predstavlja.
Negativno (cons) - ptpuno nepotrebno i suvišno ubacivanje religije, slabija priča sa fokusom na međuljudskim sukobima i akciji, slabiji i neupečatljiviji likovi.
