I fell in love with the series because it was a HARD sci fi, and while those roots are still there, it's definitely more fantastical now. However, I just love the crew of the Rocinante so much. How they deal with the trials of the gates and Laconia is intriguing, and the characters, both new and old, feels like family. I'm almost scared to finish the series.

Its always hard to review books in the middle of the series like this.... do I like it because its a good book or because I am so enamored with the entire world of it that it doesn't matter if it is written in crayon?
For what its worth the book was plotty and complicated and complex and fast paced. I think this was the quickest read for Expanse books. Also is it just me or does this guy REALLY like his metaphors. I like them, but like damn
some BIG changes to the Roci line up, spent a lot of time crying this one. Teresa is a psycho and I hate her. Too many loose ends to tie up in only one more book, so i just know the series is going to end in an ambiguous place
