***MILD SPOILERS AHEAD***
We have a great time gap to the last novel of about 30 years. Some things have changed only slowly in the solar system. Earth has regenerated some of the damage from the great catastrophe, the belt is now leading the transportation union which controls the gates to other systems and its colonies and mars' status is barley mentioned. Despite their anti-aging drugs the Rocinante crew grew old and James and Naomi are planning their retirement after appointing Bobbie Draper to be the new captain. Camina Drummer is acting president of the transportation union ...when surprisingly the expatriates of the laconia system announce their return.
This installement of the series has some of the good stuff the previous had:
Tense action, working against the clock, some intrigue.
It was a fun ride but examining it closer some things are suboptimal.
Forgotten Duarte?
The martian mastermind who stole a proto-molecule sample and orchestrated the chaos and destruction along with his belter puppet Marco Inaros 30 years ago?
Well, the sol-system seemingly has because their reaction is sluggish and inappropiate.
Remember Ashford?
Meet his new incarnation in Santiago Singh.
Remember the plot-armor?
Nah, thats ok, I like Holden&crew, its not that urge I had with Fitz Chivalry Farseer, sadly it doesn't extend to the sidekick of the sidekick (but it prepares you 500 pages ahead).
The Expanse is still my favorite running sci-fi series and Persepolis Risining was a joy.
I missed some characters like Mitio Pa and where the heck is Naomis son Filip?
Somewhere I picked up that the authors anounced that this will be the 1st book of the final The Expanse trilogy. Sad to hear this because they created a setting with great characters and worldbuilding in which many more storys could be told.
I guess there has to be p&p rpg when they figure out the storyteller section of the protomolecule stuff (not so thrilled about a crpg).
I'am looking forward to the continuation and recommend the novella Strange Dogs which counted for me somehow as a prequel to this novel.
Start to the final trilogy of the Rocinante-crew.

In this latest book, none of those things can be found anymore, except for Holden and his crew -- but even those guys don't feel quite right anymore. After a jump in time over 30 years, in which pretty much nothing with any significance to the story whatsoever seems to have happened, they are exactly the same old fellas, only now they're described as "old" and "with some aches" every now and then. Other than that: Zero changes.
The human tech is, by now, described insufficiently, for my tastes, and the alien tech can only be described as "Gods almighty hammer". The alien tech was, of course, amazing by any standard before, but now some people can control it such that, compared to human tech, it's like a smartphone plus internet compared to a telegraph. Yet, other than military advantages, we see no impact that this alien tech has on anything else. I find that either boring or hard to believe -- or rather, both.
I don't like this story much anymore. This installment in the series feels kind of forced, and I won't buy the next one before reading some critical reviews.
Story becomes ever more fantastical, less engaging
