sanaastoria 's review for:

Abaddon's Gate by James S.A. Corey

4.0

---

[4 Stars] This one wasn't quite as good as the first in the series. I think the ending really picked up, but the beginning was fairly meh. It's also strange because this book has a large scope, but everything takes place in fairly close quarters. It gave a different kind of feel to the book than the other two, not bad, but it made me feel less connected to the characters, particularly Melba. I really loved Anna and Bull, but I feel like Bull's story was just left hanging if you know what I mean. I also felt like Bull was almost a not-crazy-Miller if you know what I mean. I wanted more. Anna, Anna though. I loved her because she was so different and compassionate and yeah she was great. I also felt that the whole proto-molecule stuff flew over my head initially, and only later in the book did I really get it. May be I was reading too fast. Still, this book is really good and an excellent addition to the series. I like the way this book wrapped things up while still leaving room for so much more.
