mwplante's review against another edition

This is a tantalizing bit of short fiction that serves as the introduction to the The Expanse RPG core rulebook. Serves wonderfully in its role as an incitement to RPG adventure and as a way of setting the tone of The Expanse universe -- gray scarcity punctuated by mystery and wonder. Probably not worth the trouble of tracking down the RPG sourcebook for anyone who doesn't need it for gaming purposes. Maybe it will show up in a short story collection, someday.

The structure doesn't make much intuitive sense and it's very difficult to quickly look up rules. The art is not very cool. Good game though once you get it.

"TRhe last fly of the Cassandra" es un relato corto situado cronológicamente justo tras la primera novela de la serie. Viene junto a las instrucciones del juego de rol de The Expanse que se publicó vía Kickstarter hace un par de años. Parece mentira que en tan pocas páginas se pueda generar tanto interés. Supongo que se incluirá en algún momento en el compendio de relatos cortos sobre la serie que se publicará el año que viene tras la última novela de la serie. Son personajes que no salen en la serie pero a los que en unas pocas páginas los autores les dan una historia de fondo creíble y con muchas posibilidades. Muy entretenida para trastornados de The Expanse.

It's always a treat to read a new James S.A. Corey story. This one is set in the much simpler times during the events of Leviathan Wakes. The Last Flight of the Cassandra is a short and sweet romp that introduces an intriguing mystery, and a handful of new characters that I somehow already care about. It's not groundbreaking by any means, but an enjoyable, quick read.
This was released as part of Green Ronin's Expanse RPG, but I'm hoping that it will eventually be included in the collection of shorter Expanse fiction that is supposed to be published after the final novel next year.
