The second novel in James S. A. Corey’s SF New York Times bestselling Expanse series. Now a major television series We are not alone. On Ganymede, breadbasket of the outer planets, a Martian marine watches as her platoon is slaughtered by a monstrous supersoldier. On Earth, a high-level politician struggles to prevent interplanetary war from reigniting. And on Venus, an alien protomolecule has … Venus, an alien protomolecule has overrun the planet, wreaking massive, mysterious changes and threatening to spread out into the solar system.
In the vast wilderness of space, James Holden and the crew of the Rocinante have been keeping the peace for the Outer Planets Alliance. When they agree to help a scientist search war-torn Ganymede for a missing child, the future of humanity rests on whether a single ship can prevent an alien invasion that may have already begun . . .

Book 2 in The Expanse series, after Leviathan Wakes. I was aware this series has also been produced for one of the streaming services, but wanted to read a few of the books before deciding if I wanted to see that version. Now I think I’ll keep reading. Still very much enjoying the complex characters, their relationships, and the sort of humor I …
One of the best science fiction series I have ever read in the last decade. Original, exciting, with wonderful characters.
Loved this sequel. The crew of the Rocinante find themselves on Ganymede and helping a scientist find his daughter. Things are unfolding in a crazy amazing way as they find they are not quite done dealing with the protomolecule and how far people are willing to go to weaponize it. I love Holden and the whole crew and they are really meshing and a …
Adventure
One of the best book series ever. The story is so well crafted that you feel as if you are actually there in the middle of all the action. I am lucky that six complete novels and several novellas were written before I found this series, so
I have a while to go before I have to return to the real world. A great read (enjoy).
One of the original books on which the Expanse series on Amazon is based. Great SciFi yarn.
All of these books knock your socks off and leave them floating in the void never to be seen again.
CALIBAN’S WAR is the second installment of the Expanse series, which compromises the majority of Season Two of the series. Unlike with the first volume, I read this before watching the second season and I’m glad I did. I felt my viewing of the second season of the Expanse was enriched by my reading how the author originally intended the story to …
This book builds on the already engaging characters and story from book 1 Leviathan Wakes. I can’t wait to dig in to Abaddon’s Gate
I read these prior to the TV series being produced, and have enjoyed each book in the series. If you’re a fan of Space Opera, this will definitely be to your liking. The books are long, but consistently interesting. The writing is excellent, especially the character development. Calaban’s War, which is the second book in the series, really does a …
Book 2: Continuation of the Expanse Series; focusing on how unlikely a crew of different personalities can help to prevent a damaging alien virus from getting into the universe; to be continued in the next book.
Another amazing entry in the “Expanse” universe–can’t wait for this to be made a part of the show.
I love Bobbie!
