#Pov characters in the expanse books plus
The second part, comprised of the aforementioned books four and five plus Babylon’s Ashes (2016), is what I’m seriously put off by. If not quite the sort of diamond-hard SF I love, not far from it. Good old-fashioned space opera updated with some pretty solid science. In fact, I thought they were outstanding. The first part, which I loved, is the first three books, Levianthan Wakes (2011), Caliban’s War (2012) and Abaddon’s Gate (2013). I think the nine books form a traditional science fiction trilogy with each “part” comprised of three novels. They may have turned me off to the series. These two have much I hate in fiction and little I like. I’ve read the first five, and what’s got my knickers twisted is books four and five, Cibola Burn (2014) and Nemesis Games (2015). There are eight books in the series plus a final ninth expected sometime this year (covid-19 willing). (James is Abraham’s middle name, and Corey is Franck’s middle name. I’m talking about The Expanse, a science fiction novel series by Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck working under the pen name, James S.A.
This isn’t a Sci-Fi Saturday post or a TV Tuesday post… this is a spleen vent. But after that great start, there came a most unwelcome left turn into a stinking swamp I want no part of. There was all the excitement of exploring something new and interesting. I thought I’d found something truly worthwhile - something to invest myself in.Īnd it seemed really good at first. I let myself get attached (despite a few alarm bells going off in my head). I found what seemed a delightful bit of science fiction color in an otherwise increasingly grey and dismal world.
