Review "A standout tale of violence, intrigue, ambition, and hope. ... Corey cranks up the tension relentlessly in this fast-paced story of heroes and rebels fighting for freedom. With enough thrills and intrigue for three Hollywood blockbusters, the novel stands alone nicely, making it easy for new readers as well as diehard series fans to dive right in."―Publishers Weekly on Nemesis Games"The science fictional equivalent of A Song of Ice and Fire...only with fewer beheadings and way more spaceships."―NPR Books on Cibola Burn"Combining an exploration of real human frailties with big sf ideas and exciting thriller action, Corey cements the series as must-read space opera."―Library Journal (starred review) on Cibola Burn"The Expanse series is the best space opera series running at full tilt right now, and Cibola Burn continues that streak of excellence."―io9 on Cibola Burn"Corey's splendid fourth Expanse novel blends adventure with uncommon decency."―Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Cibola Burn"A politically complex and pulse-pounding page-turner.... Corey perfectly balances character development with action... series fans will find this installment the best yet."―Publishers Weekly on Abaddon's Gate"It's been too long since we've had a really kickass space opera. LEVIATHAN WAKES is interplanetary adventure the way it ought to be written, the kind of SF that made me fall in love with the genre way back when, seasoned with a dollop of horror and a dash of noir. Jimmy Corey writes with the energy of a brash newcomer and the polish of a seasoned pro. So where's the second book?"―George R.R. Martin on Leviathan Wakes"An excellent space operatic debut in the grand tradition of Peter F. Hamilton."―Charles Stross on Leviathan Wakes"High adventure equaling the best space opera has to offer, cutting-edge technology, and a group of unforgettable characters bring the third installment of Corey's epic space drama (after Caliban's War and Leviathan Wakes) to an action-filled close while leaving room for more stories to unfold. Perhaps one of the best tales the genre has yet to produce, this superb collaboration between fantasy author Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck should reawaken an interest in old-fashioned storytelling and cinematic pacing. Highly recommended."―Library Journal on Abaddon's Gate"Literary space opera at its absolute best."―io9.com on Abaddon's Gate"[T]he authors are superb with the exciting bits: Shipboard coups and battles are a thrill to follow."―Washington Post on Abaddon's Gate"Riveting interplanetary thriller."―Publishers Weekly on Leviathan Wakes

Up until this novel, I found the writing fresh, the characters engaging, and the plots involving and thrilling.Unfortunately, I found a lot of those things to be missing in this latest ‘chapter’. I don’t begrudge anyone rating this novel highly. A lot happens - including probably one of the most ‘momentous’ stories in the series. So why didn’t I love this novel?For me, the top shelf ingredients never coalesced into a finished whole. The novel starts with most of the main characters going off of personal quests and spending significant portions of the novel apart. The novel spends a lot of the book revealing the past lives of various characters. While some of this is interesting - I think too much of the novel is spent on this inward journey. And part of what made the previous novels great - for me - was the interaction of the main characters with each other. The smaller interactions throughout this novel were much less satisfying.To me - most of the characters felt like they were adrift in this episode. Waiting for the big reveal and for point in the story where it was time for them to grab onto something and to start changing the course of things. But this didn’t happen until the end of the novel.Ultimately, while a lot happens in this book - the entire thing came across as a placeholder for what will happen in subsequent books. This is still a great series. I just didn’t feel emotionally involved in this story - and found myself wishing for the next book instead of this one. The book ends on cliffhanger, and I believe a lot of great things are to come. But I’m far more interested in what the next book will reveal - than in what happened on this one.That being said, each book builds on the previous novel. With that in mind, I don’t think this one should be skipped. But, I fell a bit like a victim of a 3 card monty game. This one promised a lot - but what I’m really interested in wasn’t there. That will be revealed in the next novel - I hope.

Khalsa Happy to get back into the Expanse universe - but ... book feels like a long prequel for a long drawn out series that is just about to start in book two. The other books had discrete endings, so you weren't left hanging. Here, there are major plot points unresolved. In fact, they are entirely unresolved. The only thing that happens is the group splits up and gets back together - even though "everything" has changed. Dissappointed to be honest.
23 of 28 people found the following review helpful. A mostly-unrelated 'filler' novel By Ryan Abrahamson Corey's style and characters are great, however, this 5th book appears lazily written more as exposition for the upcoming Syfy series than as anything having to do with the previous books. There is almost nothing here in regards to what 'The Expanse' has been about, and I believe it was written more as a 'filler' novel to create unecessary human vs. human conflict for those TV episodes that occupy the space between the main story (e.g. "Firefly" and 70% of every other show on TV today).The entire plot is ridiculous: the amount of secrecy the antagonists required leading up to ANYTHING is literally unbelievable and that's not even considering the idiocy of the 'us vs them' mentality in which without "them", "us" has absolutely zero chance of survival.Overall, other than character names, and the epilogue, this novel is almost completely unrelated to the main-story arc of 'The Expanse'.Recommendation: Skip it...Corey will probably take 5 pages in Book 6 to catch you up on everything that happened here.
