"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"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 on Cibola Burn (Starred Review)"The Expanse is the best space opera series running at full tilt right now, and Cibola Burn continues that streak of excellence."―io9 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"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 James S.A. Corey is the pen name of fantasy author Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck. They both live in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Find out more about this series at www.the-expanse.com.
Never lets go The Expanse is a great TV series, but the underlying novels (this one unfilmed as of 2018) are even better. This one changes from pure space adventure to the challenges of conquering a truly alien world while battling all-too human divisions in a frontier environment where the fingers of the law have all the power and the long arm is tenuous at best.Cibola burn reunites us with the crew of the Rocinante, and adds its own slew of great characters, from a Nigerian scientist whose repressed horniness almost equals her genius, to an implacable, merciless lawman who would’ve been at home in the days of peak colonialism.Above all however this is a story of unending conflict, between colonists and bureaucrats, each group with its own divisions, romances and crises of conscience, but also between man and unpredictable, carelessly hostile nature, and also between the remnant creation of godlike aliens and the nemesis that ended their civilization billions of years ago.I have been reading SF for 55 years, and I consider myself as jaded as they come. This novel kept me glued to the page, with a feeling I haven’t had since the long ago days of Dune and Stranger in a strange land.
