Overall, I liked this one as kind of an endcap for the OPA vs Earth storyline that we've had through the books so far. I thought it was interesting to give Naomi's son a POV, but I found him a really interesting character who took his own autonomy in this book. I thought that the ending was a little anti-climactic, but I liked the falling action. I thought that the plan for how the world would work with all of these other worlds available and habitable was an interesting solution, and I thought that this would make a good ending for the whole series.

I enjoyed most of this book - especially the ending resolution for the Belters who weren't involved with the Free Navy. But I feel like some things were lost in having so many point of view characters. It ended up being harder to keep track of what was going on and who was doing what. With some point of view characters I wasn't entirely sure who they were. That said it probably makes sense for this type of story because of how big the solar system is and all the people involved in the conflict. I did think central conflict is resolved a little too easily but given how baldy it was going to go there wasn't much of a choice. I wish at this point the characters understood more about the alien technology they're using but they don't - and that's actually going to be a problem later.
