Über das Buch

NOW A PRIME ORIGINAL TV SERIES

Persepolis Rising is the seventh novel in the New York Times bestselling and Hugo-award winning Expanse series.

In the thousand-sun network of humanity's expansion, new colony worlds are struggling to find their way. Every new planet lives on a knife-edge between collapse and wonder, and the crew of the ageing gunship Rocinante have their hands more than full keeping the fragile peace.

In the vast space between Earth and Jupiter, the inner planets and the Belt have formed a tentative and uncertain alliance, still haunted by a history of wars and prejudices. On the lost colony world of Laconia, a hidden enemy has a new vision for all of humanity - and the power to enforce it.

New technologies clash with old, as the history of human conflict returns to its ancient pattern of war and subjugation. But human nature is not the only enemy, and the forces being unleashed have their own price. A price that will change the shape of humanity - and of the Rocinante - unexpectedly and for ever . . .

The Expanse is the biggest science fiction series of the last decade and is now a major TV series.

    I really enjoy reading this series and it‘s surprising me every time I pick up another book that it never gets dull. There is always happening something huge I could never guessed and I love how they get back to earlier characters and let them show up again. Book number seven started a bit slow for me because I felt like I missed a few things between book 6 and 7 and needed some time to really flow with the story. I was confused about mentioned storylines I could not really remember and had to get that sorted out before being able to dive in properly. Reading the book was like being with old friends you haven’t seen for a while, catching up on everyone’s situation and just having a good time.

    3.75/5 Another weaker entry that had me frustrated at times, however the set up to the final two entries in the series was thoroughly enjoyable despite the rest of the story feeling quite dull and slow. The Laconian Empire might be the most interesting political plot in any of the books so far, and honestly has me excited to continue this. Some things are getting pretty old with this series, but James S.A. Corey added that plot at the time it was needed most. "No, Captain Holden. No sticks," Duarte said. "When you fight gods, you storm heaven."
