A review by daumari
Persepolis Rising by James S.A. Corey

4.0

Figured I should get through 7 and 8 before the last book debuts this month, and we have a time skip! Previously, I've read after reading the equivalent show season, but started to move forward and I do think this easily sets up the ability to do a second 'series' after this final season for The Expanse as we know it.

I really enjoyed this. Singh is very much a zealot who doesn't know anything outside of Laconia, and in some ways is innocent of the world, not understanding why people *wouldn't* accede to Laconian rule over humanity. Great antagonist, though. Curious to see where we go, and looking forward to the return of WEIRD ALIEN BIOLOGY yesssss
