Good grief... That was painfully boring for the most part. Two months later and I am finally finished! What a relief.

Definitely my least favourite of the series but I'm really looking forward to what comes next now that I've gotten through all the groundwork of this third and final arc.

Figured I should get through 7 and 8 before the last book debuts this month, and we have a time skip! Previously, I've read after reading the equivalent show season, but started to move forward and I do think this easily sets up the ability to do a second 'series' after this final season for The Expanse as we know it.

I really enjoyed this. Singh is very much a zealot who doesn't know anything outside of Laconia, and in some ways is innocent of the world, not understanding why people *wouldn't* accede to Laconian rule over humanity. Great antagonist, though. Curious to see where we go, and looking forward to the return of WEIRD ALIEN BIOLOGY yesssss

If you are wondering if it’s okay to read this book after you only watched the series, Yep, it is.
Belter language is very different, and there is one beloved character with us again.
