A review by jvanwago
Caliban's War by James S.A. Corey

adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? N/A

4.5

I liked this appreciably more than Leviathan Wakes. In Caliban’s War, the pace slows from the frenetic bombard of it predecessor. There is time for past-due character development as well as the introduction of some likable new players. Holden is less irritating and we get to know Amos and Alex better. 

Although this is a somewhat pessimistic vision of the future, I really enjoy the inclusion of heroes as opposed to the evermore prevalent antiheroes.
