Description
Caliban's War is the second book in the New York Times bestselling and Hugo-award winning Expanse series.
For someone who didn't intend to wreck the solar system's fragile balance of power, Jim Holden did a pretty good job of it.
While Earth and Mars have stopped shooting each other, the core alliance is shattered. The outer planets and the Belt are uncertain in their new - possibly temporary - autonomy.
Then, on one of Jupiter's moons, a single super-soldier attacks, slaughtering soldiers of Earth and Mars indiscriminately and reigniting the war. The race is on to discover whether this is the vanguard of an alien army, or if the danger lies closer to home.
The Expanse is the biggest science fiction series of the last decade and is now a major TV series.

Cliffhanger of the century. "He was the eye of God, drinking in the light of infinite stars, and he was a speck of dust on a speck of dust, clipped by his mag boots to the body of a ship unthinkably more powerful than himself, and unimportant before the face of the abyss." The political tension between Earth, Mars and the OPA is banging, and I really enjoyed Holden's arc in this. Avasarala is a babe
Alles wird größer und wichtiger!
Ich liebe die Serie THE EXPANSE und in Caliban's War ging es um einige Storylines der 2. Staffel. Avasarala und Bobbie sind zwei meiner absoluten Lieblingscharaktere und ich feier es so sehr wie gut sie in der Serie adaptiert wurden! Nur bezogen auf die Bücher fand ich es aber vom pacing etwas langatmiger als Leviathan Wakes. Trotzdem sehr emotional und episch vor allem das Ende!🤯
