Nemesis Games by James S.A. Corey

5.0

Book 4 was good, but almost too familiar: Holden is righteous to a fault, Alex is an expert pilot, Naomi has a brain blast at the last minute, and Amos gets shot. I was worried that Nemesis Games might be my last Expanse book, but it instead blew away every expectation. We finally get an exclusive focus on our four heroes. They go in different directions, having their own intense adventures that push their character development into new yet logical directions. The Expanse world itself is completely upended. Once I started, I couldn't stop. This book made me realize how much I care for this rag tag crew, and supporting characters like Bobbie, Fred Johnson, and the always-delightful Avasarala. This is a game changer for the Expanse universe, as well as a thrilling quartet of character stories for our heroes.
